The creepy award of the day goes to this B list mostly movie actress who would be nothing without her franchise who hung out backstage at a fashion show this week and just stared while the models dressed and undressed.
What should she be doing? In case I ever stumble into a fashion show, I mean. Should I not look at the models and the clothes they are wearing or what's going on with their hair & makeup? I know I sound bitchy, but what else is there to "stare" at back stage at a fashion show? A can of hairspray, a chair, your own phone? What's the protocol?
I'm sorta disturbed by the fact that random people are allowed in the changing area backstage at a fashion show. When I was in theatre, we all changed costumes in a secured area. Why can't models be shown the same courtesy?
Models are always treated like shit. Having random people backstage at a show is nothing new but Rodriguez (or whoever) must have been seriously lacking in discretion. You shouldn't openly stare and/or drool.
These days models are often completely nude backstage when changing from one outfit to the next because the designers don't want them wearing underwear beneath the gowns to spoil the shape. Truthfully though 99.9% of them couldn't care less as long as there are no cameras. The place is chaos, swarming with dressers, fitters, masseuses, seamstresses, tailors, hairdressers, makeup artists and general lackeys including stage hands who are so over the idea of naked giraffes and stick insects they don't care either.
I'm Speaking from first hand experience when I worked for Chanel and Chloe in 80's, except in those days there were modesty screens , now they don't seem to bother with them.

ReplyDeleteNo, creepy would have been if she had been caught secretly trying to sneak pictures of the models in their various states of undress.

If I had the body of a model I'd walk around nude everywhere and give michelle Rodriquez a free show anytime but hands off michelle because you dirty.
