Joja is one of the top modeling channels on Youtube. One of the top models named Josephine was discovered as a model when she was a teenager. At age 15, she was in New York City to participate in a soccer exchange program with her friends. While she was looking into the soccer program, she was approached by a modeling scout which made her a little suspicious and apprehensive.
In fact Josephine said to the modeling scout that his job is very creepy. She also believed that since the modeling scout was a stranger he was probably dangerous as well. However, her trainer assured her that the scout is not anyone to fear as she received a card from him. As a result, he was a legitimate modeling scout looking to hire her for a job. Shortly after getting the modeling job, Josephine began wearing football clothes for her first shoot. She went back to Denmark and received many calls from modeling scouts on a regular basis.
Within a few months, Josephine signed on with the agency. Another woman named Jasmine said that most young women want to be physicians. However, she wanted to be a model ever since she was a child. Jasmine talked about the importance of being tall as a model when she was growing up. While being tall as a model is beneficial, it is no longer as important now as it was in the past. At age 14, Jasmine followed her mother around to find out what it was like behind the scenes in the fashion industry. Since her mother was a fashion stylist, Jasmine would go into the showroom to get more insight into what she did everyday.
One day, Jasmine told her mother that she will become a model. While her mother was happy about her career decision, she still wanted Jasmine to complete high school before starting her career. Jasmine went to New York City and met with an agency called IMG. The agency wanted to hire her full time as one of their models. Her mother didn’t want her to become a full time model though. However, she was okay with Jasmine working part time as a model. While modeling part time, Jasmine missed a lot of days and looked for an alternative to finish her education. She moved to New York at age 18 and began her career after completing an independent studies program. While in New York, she met Josephine and they became good friends.
Jasmine and Josephine modeled on a regular basis along with working at some odd jobs. This gave them an opportunity to support themselves while they established their careers. The both of them got to know each other and share their experiences in the modeling field. They eventually attended fashion week to showcase some of the latest clothing and footwear to the masses through a variety of shows.
During the next year, Jasmine and Josephine attempted to get up to 20 or more casting calls. While working as models, the two of them looked for help from their parents as they had difficulty moving around. Since they had difficulty navigating maps, they needed some outside help to reach their required destinations for modeling shoots. They needed financial support while getting modeling jobs as well. Since becoming models, Jasmine and Josephine were very busy and didn’t have much time for anything other than doing shows, fitting clothing and completing makeup tests. Despite all of these tasks that they need to complete each day, they enjoy their career as models.
