Dirty Sexy Things Reveal The Perks Of Male Modelling
Kicking off tonight, the new modelling reality show Dirty Sexy Things will be getting under the skin of modelling revealing the pressures, challenges and struggles of the industry. That being said, modelling offers up some amazing opportunities, experiences and perks. We find out what the male models of Dirty Sexy Things appreciate most in their favourite perks of the job…
For Africa-born BB it’s all about the chance to push boundaries in a white dominated industry: “It’s the jobs, it’s the locations, it’s how you get treated, you fly around the world, and you do so many things. I don’t want to be just another guy. I want to have great campaigns and I want to do well, especially in the black market which is very limited. I want to push boundaries.”
Londoner Lord Rob Walters said that he loves the “financial freedom” and unpredictability of modelling: “Some people get up at 7am and work until 5pm. I can stay in bed for a week if I want. My travel is free. One day I could be doing an underwear shoot with eight girls. It’s unpredictable, exciting and fun.”
For Jesse Burgess, who grew up in Cambridge, its’ all about the freebies: “You get given some free clothes sometimes. I got sent three Barbour jackets from a PR once and was also sent boxes of Jack Wills stuff when I did their campaign.”
Self proclaimed Mummy’s boy Jay Camilleri also appreciates the financial rewards and free clothes: “Definitely the money and the clothes, I get sent free things all the time. But I think it’s my job to sell stuff – I see myself as a modern day Del-boy – so I think it works both ways.”
