Today's Blind Items - I Was Just A Kid

This model is almost A list. What is A list when it comes to a model? I think everyone in the general public should know her name. I think that holds true for this model. Although she is fairly open discussing most things about her life, there is the period of time when she first started modeling that she only talks about usually in very vague terms. The reason? She was forced to do things that she hates herself now for letting herself be talked into. The nude photo shoots when she was barely in her teens with photographers who said it would help her career. Discovering later that there is a circle of photographers who have all seen the photos and that the photos led to her being pursued by other photographers who sexually assaulted her while forcing her to take drugs to keep her thin or make her more compliant. She says it was much easier just to go along and do what they wanted then to fight the system because she just wanted to work. Now that she is  A list she tries to help others who are just beginning. The model said that at a certain point she just put her foot down and said no. Part of it was when she met her significant other and part of it was just a personal thing she felt she needed to do because she was tired of being a victim.
