The
Model
Challenge
Screen

Ostensibly,
this
document
is
about
a
technique
called
the
Model
Challenge
Screen,
an

absurd
little
name
for
a
few
questions
and
statements
you’d
make
when
talking
to
a

professional
model
in
whom
you’re
romantically
(or
at
least
physically)
interested.




But
it
wouldn’t
do
much
good
to
give
you
the
technique
without
giving
you
a
bit
of

background.




At
The
Social
Man,
one
of
the
foundations
upon
which
we
build
our
social
skills
is

familiarity.

That
is,
the
more
that
you
know
about
someone
else’s
world
and
can
relate

to
it,
the
easier
it
will
be
to
build
a
connection.

Its
all
about
being
an
“insider”.




Unfortunately,
it
is
difficult
to
be
an
“insider”
with
models.

Their
worlds
are
rather

insular,
and
before
we
get
into
the
technique,
I
want
to
share
some
thoughts
and
details

that
will
inevitably
help
you
on
your
quest
to
bring
these
beautiful
women
into
your
life.


A MODEL’S JOB

Being
a
model
isn’t
all
its
cracked
up
to
be.

Unless
you’re
in
the
top,
top
echelon,
you

hustle
for
work
just
like
everyone
else,
and
sometimes
even
moreso.

It
can
be
feast
or

famine,
and
the
things
that
make
a
model
“good”
at
her
job
aren’t
immediately
obvious.



Before
she
ends
up
in
front
of
a
camera,
much
work
must
be
done.

It
all
starts
with
her

representation.

Does
she
have
an
agency
behind
her,
or
not?


Aspiring
models
–
those
who
aren’t
agency
rep’d
–
spend
much
of
their
time
on
sites

like
craigslist
and
modelmayhem,
connecting
with
photographers,
fashion
designers,

makeup
artists,
and
most
importantly,
anyone
who
will
give
them
a
job.

They
will

typically
do
free
shoots
with
up‐and‐coming
photographers
in
order
to
build
their

portfolios
(and
the
value
is
mutual,
as
the
photographer
has
the
opportunity
to
build
his

or
her
portfolio
as
well).

These
aspiring
models
will
frequently
take
just
about
any
work

offered
to
them
within
reason,
and
often
end
up
working
with
small
businesses
who

need
a
face
for
their
website,
catalog,
or
other
promotional
material.


Once
an
aspiring
model
has
done
sufficient
work
and
built
a
good
portfolio,
she’ll
send
it

to
the
agencies.

Elite,
Premier,
Ford,
Next,
Click,
Red,
Wilhelmina…
the
list
goes
on
and

on.

Those
are
some
of
the
bigger
names,
with
offices
in
cities
such
as
New
York,
Los

Angeles,
Miami,
Paris
and
Milan,
and
achieving
representation
at
any
of
them
is
a
big

step.

These
agencies
have
connections
with
major
photographers,
retailers
and
brands

(i.e.
Abercrombie,
Target,
Sephora),
catalogs,
and
magazines
(i.e.
Redbook,

Cosmopolitan,
Men’s
Health),
and
will
work
hard
to
get
jobs
for
their
models.




Some
models
get
agency
representation
without
any
of
the
hard
work.

Due
to
their

extraordinary
beauty
or
uniqueness
of
features,
a
talent
scout
for
one
of
the
major

agencies
finds
them
and
signs
them
right
into
a
contract.

They
may
be
discovered

anywhere
–
on
a
small
local
runway,
or
walking
down
the
boardwalk
in
their
hometown.


These
women
are
typically
discovered
at
a
very
young
age
–
in
their
mid
to
late
teens
–

and
may
be
brought
into
the
world
of
high
fashion
before
they
really
have
a
sense
of

who
they
are.




With
the
exception
of
the
top
few
percent,
most
models
find
their
jobs
through

castings,
and
spend
much
of
their
non‐camera
time
going
to
castings.

A
casting

happens
when
a
company
like
Abercrombie
or
a
magazine
like
Cosmo
is
looking
for
a

particular
photo
or
series.

They’ll
contact
the
agency
with
a
set
of
specifications
of
the

types
of
girls
they’d
like
–
blonde
or
brunette?

how
tall?

curvy
or
rail‐thin?
–
and
the

agents
will
contact
the
models
with
corresponding
features
who
they
represent,
and
let

them
know
when
and
where
to
show
up.


A
casting
can
take
just
a
few
minutes.

A
model
walks
in
with
her
book
–
a
portfolio
of

many
different
shots
–
and
shows
them
to
the
casting
director.

Depending
on
how

versatile
she
is,
her
book
may
includes
beauty
shots
(showing
off
makeup
or
hair),

fashion
(showing
off
clothing
–
often
very
artistic)
bikini, lingerie, erotic,
and
more.
The

casting
director
can
be
very
precise;
he
or
she
typically
knows
exactly
what
they’re

looking
for,
and
is
quick
to
make
judgments
based
on
appearances.




You
can
also
break
up
the
type
of
work
a
model
does
by
where
it
appears
(as
this
is

often
how
they
break
it
up,
as
different
economic
values
are
attached
to
the
following

categories).

Editorial
work
ends
up
in
magazines
–
those
pictures
in
Esquire
you
see

alongside
the
feature
of
how
to
give
her
more
pleasure
than
she’s
ever
experienced

before.

Catalog
work
ends
up
in
catalogs
such
as
J.
Crew
and
Eddie
Bauer.

Fashion

work
may
end
up
in
an
art
collection
or
in
a
sexy
magazine
advertisement;
if
you’ve
ever

seen
a
Skyy
Vodka
ad,
that’s
considered
fashion.
Runway
work
has
the
woman
on
a

catwalk
or
on
display
for
a
fashion
show.
Promotional
work
is
the
least
prestigious:
beer

girls,
trade‐show
girls,
and
those
annoying
girls
who
hand
out
hats
at
movie
premiers

are
all
in
this
category.
There
can
be
some
crossover,
of
course,
the
more
versatile
a

woman,
the
more
work
she’ll
find
for
herself.


A
model’s
versatility
is
a
function
of
her
features.

Women
with
perfect
bodies
and
less‐
than‐perfect
faces
often
end
up
doing
bikini
modeling
for
an
internet
catalog.

Women

with
perfect
faces
and
average,
athletic
or
curvy
bodies
may
end
up
doing
beauty
shot

for
an
advertisement.

Tall
rail‐thin
women
often
end
up
doing
runway
modeling.


Women
who
want
to
be
models
but
who,
frankly,
don’t
have
what
it
takes…
they
often

end
up
doing
promotional
work.


Once
a
model
has
been
cast,
she
has
to
plan
for
the
job
itself.

Depending
on
when
and

where
the
shoot
is,
this
may
involved
calling
her
agency
to
book
her
a
flight,
going
to
the

tanning
bed,
or
other
such
activities.




Anything
can
happen
at
the
shoot.

Abercrombie
shoots,
for
example,
often
take
place

after
3
or
4
days
during
which
the
male
and
female
models
have
spent
time
together
in

close
quarters.

They’ve
been
served
plenty
of
liquor
over
this
time,
some
have
probably

hooked
up
with
each
other,
and
the
emotions
and
camaraderie
you
see
in
their
on‐
camera
interactions
are
typically
real.



Oftentimes
models
will
work
with
a
makeup
artist
immediately
prior
to
going
in
front
of

the
camera
to
have
their
hair
or
makeup
done
properly.

This
could
take
minutes
or

hours
depending
on
the
shoot.


So
what
makes
a
good
model?

One
thing:
she
can
always
take
the
perfect
shot.

Some

women
are
so
natural,
and
so
photogenic,
that
no
matter
how
they’re
posing
in
front
of

the
camera,
the
shot
comes
out
well.

The
less
work
that
a
photographer
has
to
do
in

post‐production,
whether
it
be
going
through
photo
after
photo
to
find
the
right
smile,

or
airbrushing
her
love
handles
away,
the
easier
the
model
has
made
his
or
her
job.

Any

imperfections
in
the
model’s
features
–
especially
in
the
symmetry
of
her
facial
features

–
comes
into
immediate
focus
as
the
raw
photos
are
reviewed.

And
the
best
models

can
take
perfect
shot
after
perfect
shot
expressing
a
variety
of
emotions
and/or
with
a

variety
of
poses:
smiling,
looking
sexy,
laughing,
etc.


Photographers
and
agencies
also
like
working
with
reliable
models.

Given
the
nature
of

the
job,
and
many
times,
the
young
age
of
these
individuals,
flakiness
is
higher
than
in,

say,
the
software
engineering
profession.

A
model
who
shows
up
to
a
shoot
on
time,

sober,
focused
and
confident
about
the
job
at
hand
is
a
real
blessing
for
a
photographer.



Over
the
long‐term,
a
model
may
sign
a
contract
with
a
brand
for
exclusive

representation.

Hence,
the
“Calvin
Klein”
model
or
the
“face
of
Polo”.

These
contracts

may
be
exclusive
or
non‐exclusive.

The
size
of
the
job,
the
amount
of
high‐profile

exposure,
and
the
exclusivity
of
the
contract
(can
the
model
do
other
jobs
while
under

this
contract?)
all
go
into
determining
a
model’s
payout.

a
small
editorial
can
net
$2500

‐
$5000,
a
decent
ad
campaign
can
net
$50,000
‐
$250,000.
A
multi‐year
contract
can

net
even
more.




It
may
not
require
a
degree
in
particle
physics
to
be
a
professional
model.

And
while
the

job
has
many
perks
(and
offers
a
truly
amazing
lifestyle
for
those
who
break
into
the
top

tier),
it
is
not
without
its
hard
work.

Understanding
and
appreciating
the
uniqueness
of

the
model
with
whom
you’re
speaking
will
take
you
a
long
way.


A MODEL’S LIFESTYLE 

Generally,
pretty
good.

She
gets
paid

to
be
attractive,
and
has
access
to
things
that

most
mere
mortals
do
not.


For
a
moment
though,
let’s
distinguish
between
the
different
types
of
models
you’re

likely
to
meet.

I
know
plenty
of
girls
who
call
themselves
‘models’
who,
frankly,
are
not.


They’re
occasionally
paid
to
take
photographs
and
distribute
promotional
materials.


And
this
is
the
first
lesson
of
communicating
with
models
–
don’t
let
yourself
be
phased

when
the
‘m’
word
is
thrown
in
your
face.

I’ve
found
that
the
strongest
self‐promoters

are
the
least
secure
about
their
positions
as
models,
and
thus
constantly
need
to
remind

the
rest
of
the
world
(and
themselves)
about
it.



The
broadest
segment
is
probably
between
those
who
are
self‐represented,
and
those

represented
by
an
agency.

Once
a
girl
gets
agency
representation,
a
few
things
happen.


First,
she
is
“in
the
club,”
so
to
speak,
of
women
who
are
beautiful
and
talented
enough

to
make
a
go
at
this
professionally.





You’ll
also
find
a
high
correlation
between
models
who
are
agency‐rep’d,
and
models

who
live
in
major
metropolitan
cities.
They
typically
live
where
the
work
is
and/or
where

their
agencies
are
located.
If
they’re
from
a
small
town,
they
may
visit
home
(frequently,

even),
but
the
likelihood
of
meeting
a
model
in
New
York
or
Miami
is
much
higher
than

in
Wichita
or
Stains.




When
a
girl
gets
agency
representation,
she
often
meets
a
few
other
models;
at
parties,

on
shoots,
through
her
agent.

And
while
you’ll
rarely
see
posses
of
models
hanging
out

together
as
best
buds
(there
is
a
competitiveness
in
the
profession
that
breeds

seclusion),
you’ll
often
find
them
at
similar
types
of
places
socially.


Models
are
often
granted
access
to
parties,
events
and
travel
where
their
beauty
and

presence
would
be
a
value‐add,
either
to
the
general
social
situation,
or
to
a
specific

man’s
social
agenda.

Promoters
will
work
hard
to
recruit
them,
and
will
furnish
them

with
free
drinks,
a
group
of
cool
men
and
women,
and
fun
parties.

They
don’t
have
to

work
too
hard
to
get
access
to
these
things,
or
to
build
their
social
circles,
and
thus,
may

not
appreciate
the
hard
work
you’ve
put
in
to
getting
there.

Obviously,
a
gross

generalization,
but
one
that
I’ve
found
to
be,
well,
generally
true.


Those
exceptionally
beautiful
models
who
are
discovered
early
may
be
exposed
to
a

fast‐paced
culture,
and
tempted
to
do
and
experience
things
that,
done
and

experienced
enough,
will
leave
them
feeling
jaded
and/or
isolated.

Again,
a
gross

generalization,
but
again,
generally
true
in
my
experience.


As
their
profession
is
a
visual
one,
they
are
typically
more
visual
than
other
women.


They
pay
very
close
attention
to
their
men:
clothing,
body
language,
general
aesthetic.


And
they
often
take
interest
in
visual
subjects:
photography,
art,
beauty
and
fashion.


Knowledge
of
self,
and
of
these
subjects,
will
likely
ensure
many
fine,
real
conversations

with
these
women.


When
it
comes
to
men,
their
experiences
are
rarely
100%
positive
(but
then
again,
can

any
woman
say
that?).

They
may
have
met
and/or
dated
“model‐chasers,”
men
who

define
themselves
by
how
many
models
they
can
date
and/or
sleep
with.

Like
other

forms
of
inauthenticity,
this
behavior
is
sure
to
jade
any
woman.

To
love
beauty
is
one

thing;
to
chase
it
for
the
sake
of
one’s
ego
is
another.


They’ve
also
met
plenty
of
men
who
feel
that
they
need
to
be
overly
assertive,

dominant,
or
flat‐out
mean,
in
an
attempt
to
establish
value
and
control.

Again,

generally
a
massive
turn‐off.

A
third
group
of
men
who
disappoint
them
are
all
those
who
are
too
afraid
to
approach

them
and
have
a
real
conversation
with
them.




But
these
generalizations
are
dangerous.

I
dated
a
model
who
was
21,
and
another
who

was
31,
and
besides
their
professions,
there
was
very
little
they
had
in
common.


Attributing
a
set
of
personality
characteristics
to
a
person
based
solely
on
their
job
is
a

dangerous
thing
(as
any
woman
who
thinks
she
truly
knows
me
based
on
my
job
would

find
out)
and
at
the
end
of
the
day,
you’re
still
dealing
with
a
real
person
who
is
just
a

little
bit
different
than
the
rest
of
us
in
a
way
that
society
really
values.


I’ve
met
models
who
became
photographers,
door
girls,
professionals,
and

entrepreneurs.

Some
of
these
women
are
truly
high
value,
through
and
through.

You’d

never
date
these
girls
without
being
a
fun,
charismatic,
assertive,
high‐value
guy

yourself.


I’ve
met
others
who
are
nearly
sociopathic
trainwrecks.

They’ll
chase
shiny
objects
and

anything
they
can’t
have.

These
are
typically
the
younger
ones,
and
they
respond
better

to
an
incredibly
dominant
man
with
high
social
proof
–
the
alpha
of
alphas
(or
at
least

he
seems
that
way).

Go
after
them
if
you
like;
beautiful
or
not,
you’re
in
for
a
ride
with

many
ups
and
more
downs.


In
social
situations,
models
know
their
value.

Approaching
and
communicating
with

them
with
anything
other
than
confidence
and
authenticity
is
likely
to
be
a
turnoff.


You’re
going
to
have
to
play
the
game,
just
like
with
anyone
else,
and
not
let
their
looks

or
social
value
affect
your
coolness
or
sense
of
personal
value.


As
to
where
to
meet
them…
you’ll
rarely
find
agency‐rep’d
models
hanging
out
at
bars

where
“normal”
girls
go.

They
either
want
to
go
to
places
where
they
know
they’ll
meet

the
top
dogs
(socially),
places
they
won’t
be
bothered,
or
places
where
they
have
a

strong
personal
interest
(i.e.
a
rock
and
roll
or
hip‐hop
show).

Think
very
small,
or
very

exclusive.

If
you
live
in
a
major
city,
you
need
to
be
hooked
into
a
promoter
network
to

know
when
and
where
they’re
out.

In
New
York,
it
is
Mondays
at
Butter.

In
London,

Saturdays
at
Movida.

And
so
on…

Good
luck
getting
in
the
door
if
you’re
not
in
the

know
–
so
get
in
the
know.

For
more
on
that,
check
out
Rockstar
Lifestyle.


Otherwise,
you
can
meet
them
out
and
about
during
the
daytime

Those
men
without

real
day
jobs
can
spend
their
time
hanging
out
in
a
park,
waiting
for
a
tall,
conspicuously

attractive
girl
to
walk
by
with
a
large
portfolio
book
hanging
out
of
her
bag,
enjoying
an

hour’s
break
between
castings.




Finally,
you
can
meet
them
through
friends.

Models
have
real
friends
too,
and

appreciate
real
life
just
as
much
as
anyone
else.

Network
your
way
around
enough
in
a

major
city
(and
with
the
right
social
skills),
and
you’re
sure
to
meet
one
or
two.






MEETING
A
MODEL


So
much
of
a
model’s
value
is
front‐loaded
that
to
approach
her
directly
is
only
advised

when
you
have
solid
eye
contact.

And
how
do
you
get
that?

Dress
well,
and
either
be

extremely
good
looking
(and
be
every
girl’s
type)
or
get
high
social
value.

At
a
rock
bar,

this
means
being
in
the
band,
or
being
friends
with
them.
In
a
club
environment,
this

means
knowing
a
group
of
people
(including
promoters),
being
at
a
table
of
your
own

(either
one
you
paid
for
or
one
to
which
you’ve
been
invited),
and
having
a
lot
of
fun

with
the
women
around
you.

On
the
street,
well…
just
give
it
a
shot.

You
just
can’t

build
social
value
that
quickly.


Once
you
have
eye
contact,
or
proximity,
or
whatever
which
makes
the
conversation

easy
to
start,
you
start
it.

This
isn’t
a
course
on
opening
–
for
that,
check
out
Say
Hello.


Almost
every
time
I’ve
started
a
conversation
with
a
model
or
anyone
else
of

exceptional
physical
beauty,
its
been
through
an
introduction,
a
situational
comment,
or

an
incredibly
direct
opener
that
recognized
her
eye
contact
and
sexual
interest
and

skipped
the
pleasantries.


So
you’re
talking
to
her…
and
it
comes
up
that
she’s
a
model.

Maybe
you
ask
what
she

does,
or
maybe
your
game
is
tight
enough
that
she
offers
it
up.

Good
sign
in
that
latter

case;
models
are
incredibly
aware
of
the
social
power
that
their
job
titles
confer
upon

them,
and
if
they’re
coming
out
of
the
blue
and
telling
you,
they’re
working
for
you.


Good
job,
chief.


Here’s
where
our
“model
challenge
screen”
comes
in.

My
friend
David
came
up
with

this
concept
of
a
challenge
screen
–
a
set
of
questions
that
is
really
meant
to
suss
out

the
value
of
someone’s
qualifications.

Not
only
does
it
show
them
that
you
won’t
be

bowed
by
some
surface‐level
qualifications,
but
also
that
you
know
a
thing
or
two
about

their
world
and
want
to
get
to
know
where
they
fit
into
it
all.


The
key
with
a
challenge
screen
is
to
not
be
overly
challenging.

Think
about
how
it

would
feel
if
a
woman
was
being
exceptionally
challenging
to
you
–
pointed
question

after
pointed
question
about
your
profession.

You’d
probably
get
defensive;
this
is
what

we
call
a
“frame
grab”
(see
Unbreakable
and
Superpowers),
and
socially
saavy
people

know
when
its
happening,
and
don’t
like
it.


So
your
delivery
on
this
has
to
be
playful,
flirty,
and
even
a
bit
innocent.

The
challenge

is
apparent
in
the
questions,
and
to
make
her
work
for
you
with
several
questions
in
a

row
(and
if
that
concept
doesn’t
makes
sense,
please
see
Unbreakable
and
the
sections

on
investment
and
engagement),
you
have
to
keep
her
feeling
good
along
the
way.




The
model
challenge
screen
takes
advantage
of
several
things
we
learned
above,
plus

several
other
elements,
to
get
her
both
working
for
you
and
enjoying
the
conversation.


It
won’t
usually
save
a
conversation
that’s
been
messed
up,
but
don
correctly,
it
will

take
a
conversation
in
which
she’s
50‐50
and
get
her
to
go
all
in.



THE
MODEL
CHALLENGE
SCREEN


Bolded questions/statements are critical, non‐bolded are used as needed 

Her:
I’m
a
model.

(this
may
come
up
because
you
ask,
this
may
come
up
because
she
likes
you)


You:  Yeah!  I can totally see that.  Must be fun. What do you do, like print, runway?

(the
“must
be
fun”
is
a
nice
little
compliment
and
primes
her
for
the
screen.

Now
you

ask
if
she
does
print
or
runway.

This
is
almost
entirely
unexpected,
as
most
men
will

start
slobbering
or
asking
her
“so
what’s
it
like?”)


a.)
Her:
runway

a.)
You:
cool!

Any
crazy
experiences?

Like,
you
ever…
trip?

(as
a
percentage,
very
few
models
only
do
runway.
Make
sure
to
make
direct
eye

contact
when
you
say
‘trip’.

from
here,
let
her
answer,
then
ask
her
what
kind
of

photography
she’d
want
to
do
if
she
did
it,
similar
to
the
question
b)



b.)
Her:
print

b.) You: cool!  so, like fashion, editorial…?

(again,
very
fun
and
casual,
as
if
you’re
her
big
brother.
no
more
than
two
categories

here,
and
by
guessing
some
of
the
more
prestigious
ones,
you’re
automatically
putting

her
in
a
position
to
pass
your
screen,
or
to
miss
it
if
she’s
a
‘lesser
model’)


Her:
The
answers
the
gives
you
at
this
point
could
go
anywhere,
and
its
not
worth
listing

all
the
possible
outcomes.

Girls
who
do
catalog
and
editorial
usually
do
it
because
it

pays
well,
not
because
they’re
passionate
about
it.

Girls
who
do
promotional
modeling

wish
they
were
doing
catalog.

And
girls
who
do
fashion
are
truly
lucky.

If
she’s
a
top

tier
model,
she’ll
likely
do
most
of
the
above
and
say
something
like
‘yeah,
all
that’.

You

can
let
her
carry
this
conversation
thread
for
awhile.

If
she
gives
you
a
long
answer
and

you
can
vibe
with
it,
do
so,
then
skip
ahead
to
the
next
bolded
question.

If
she
gives
you

a
short
answer,
move
on
to
the
next
question,
which
is
functionally
a
screen.


You:
do
you
get
a
lot
of
work?


a.)
Her:
yes

a.)
You:
nice,
your
agent
must
love
you…


b.)
Her:
no

b.)
You:
well
hopefully
you
get
to
enjoy
your
free
time…


You: …where might I have seen you? 

Her:
this
is
a
biggie.

Most
girls
love
to
talk
about
the
work
they’ve
done.

Use
this
as
an

opportunity
to
flirt.

If
you’ve
watched
Superpowers,
you
should
have
a
sense
of
how
to

use
playful
false
assumptions
to
good
effect
here.

A
simple
example:
if
she
says

“Cosmo”,
you
can
say
“haha
cute,
are
you
that
girl
having
pillow
fights…
or
the
one
lost

in
orgasm?”

Play
around
with
this
conversation
thread
for
as
long
as
it
is
convenient.


The
challenge
screen
can
end
here,
as
you’ve
probably
demonstrated
enough
of
an

understanding
of
her
world
to
get
her
to
open
up
to
you
and
want
to
know
about
you
at

this
point.

If
she
starts
flirting
back
or
asking
you
questions,
you’re
golden.

However,
if

she
doesn’t,
or
at
some
point
later
in
the
conversation
you
need
to
get
her
laughing,
you

can
use
the
following.


You:
so
do
you
have
a
favorite
photographer
to
work
with?

Her:
yes/no/whatever…

(her
answer
at
this
point
is
incidental.

Some
girls
will
say
that
they
don’t
care
as
long
as

he’s
fun,
some
girls
will
have
a
strong
preference.

Again,
you
will
need
to
use
some
of

your
own
creativity
to
vibe
with
her.

My
only
advice
is
to
take
this
part
of
the

conversation
seriously,
as
the
difference
between
a
good
photographer
and
a
bad
or

creepy
photographer
is
night
and
day,
and
can
make
or
break
the
shoot.

Whatever
the

case,
you
want
to
get
to
the
point
where
you
say
the
following).


You:
You
know,
the
other
day
I
was
at
a
friend’s
house
and
saw
this
huge
book
by
a
guy

named
David
Lachapelle…
I
think
it
was
called
Heaven
or
Hell.

And
I
can
see
you

working
well
with
him,
like…
it’d
be
a
very
colorful
backdrop,
and
then
your
legs
(pause

for
2‐3
seconds)
and
then
a
huge,
inflatable
cheeseburger
covering
your
upper
torso.


It’d
be
so
hot.

(David
Lachapelle
is
a
prominent
fashion
photographer,
and
if
you’ve
ever
read
through

a
Rolling
Stone
magazine,
chances
are
you’ve
seen
his
work.

And
incidentally
“Heaven

or
Hell”
is
an
amazing
coffee
table
book.

I’d
advise
you
to
buy
it,
and
then
you
can
talk

about
this
in
the
first
person
perspective,
instead
of
saying
you
saw
it
at
a
friend’s

house.

And
it
also
won’t
be
a
lie.

In
any
case,
most
high‐fashion
models
know
of
David

Lachapelle,
and
this
joke
relies
on
a
slight
“neg”,
a
funny
visual
image,
and
insider

knowledge
that
only
a
true
fashionista
would
appreciate.


I
came
up
with
this

spontaneously
one
day,
have
told
it
about
seven
times
since
then,
and
it
always
gets
a

good
response)


And
that’s
it,
no
more
necessary
to
get
the
conversation
hooked
tight.

If
you
are
a.)

regularly
meeting
models
and
b.)
finding
yourself
in
a
position
to
use
this,
then
I’ll

assume
that
things
are
generally
going
well
and
that
you’ll
find
this
to
be
an
incredibly

useful
addition
to
your
toolkit.

If
you’re
not
meeting
models,
or
are
getting
summarily

rejected
by
them,
the
Model
Challenge
Screen
isn’t
going
to
work
wonders
for
you;

check
out
our
other
programs
or
coming
in
for
coaching
so
we
can
get
you
pointed
in

the
right
direction.


Best
of
luck,
and
don’t
forget
to
bring
some
love
and
fire
to
these
women’s
lives!
