I did a couple of runway shows where I worked with those girls. I walked down the runway with Claudia Schiffer, which was kind of crazy. I met Cindy Crawford at the gym in the Hotel Delano in Miami Beach. Then, I got a little closer and realized who it was. They are often the waif-type model, although they are getting away from that now, but they are still really thin.
Commercial models are more the all-American girl with a lot of personality.
For commercial modeling, height doesn't matter as much, depending on the kind of commercial work you're trying to get, and the girls are usually healthier looking. I enjoy the commercial modeling much more because I feel like such a dork when I'm trying to do all this weird, funky modeling in a fashion shoot, because it's just not me. I enjoy doing commercials more than anything because I get the chance to actually talk and act. Inc. All rights reserved.
