Answer 1

Oh don't be silly...it's the same with Tyras forehead....its massive but nobodys calling HER ugly are they? Models are not MEANT to be perfect.

Answer 2

yea you definitely can be a model. Not all models are picture perfect and they usually have a unique selling point so this can be yours. The quirkier you are the better.  

Answer 3

it's our imperfections that make us lovely, doll. Look at Magdalena Frackowiak, she has a very strong jaw line.

Answer 4

No, you'll never be able to do anything like that

Answer 5

Its not about your jaw line and anyone can be a model if they have 'that look' that an agency is looking for, you don't have to be pretty or ugly just unique and have that special something that they look for.

If your good infront of the camera, nothing can stop you.

No harm in trying a few agencies or contacting photographers for a TFCD shoot (a free test shoot with all your pictures on CD) to start your portfolio

I'm a model and theres parts of me i dis like, however i still get lots of work.x

Answer 6

I don't know. I don't care, and yes it really is pointless and stupid.

Answer 7

apparently they like a big jawline, one thats visable anyway. a "strong jawline"?

you could be so good that they could photoshop it out for you if u wanted ;)!

look at kate moss, she has a squinty eye and is a junky with disgusting skin. if she can do it ANYONE skinny can do it.

Answer 8

Yes i dont see why not, but the hairstyle would have to suit her facial features.

Answer 9

Yes. deffinitely. I have seen models in vogue, victorias secret, and vanity fair that have wide jaws. It has to do with ur talent for modeling, ur body shape, height, and deffinitely confidence. I met som1 @ a store near where I live and she was tall very thin, and pretty; she most deffinitely could hae been a model, but she didn't have the confidence. So overall, make sure you have confidence in urself, and don't stress over rejection. k?

Answer 11
