Too 'ugly' to model?
Not according to one talent agency in New York City. "Ugly," founded in 1969, looks for unique models who are not considered traditionally beautiful. According to agency founder Simon Rogers, "beauty really does come in all shapes and sizes," and in the modeling industry, there's room for all. Realizing that the word "ugly" carries a rather negative connotation, Rogers admits his agency's name is more "tongue in cheek" than literal, but don’t expect Gisele Bundchen on their roster anytime soon. "We now represent a really candid cross-section of what America is," he said.

Pfft you don't impress me
This was a long time coming, and honestly not all of them to me should even be considered “ugly”. One thing that burns me up the most is the fashion industry. Have you ever seen the runway fashions? Even if you are a celebrity, they are god-awful. I like to look in a magazine or catalog and see regular people wearing the fashions. People that I work with or see on a everyday basis because that is who will be buying and wearing the clothes or whatever. These supermodels would look good in anything but will I? Or someone that is not “perfect” Ok. Enough of my rant.

That's exactly it, they're not ugly. They're just not America's typical beauty queen models:

Are you gay?

She is Team Pandora, what do you think? :howdy:

Women judge other women's bodies more than men!!! :lmao: That is a undeniable fact.

I don't want to see some coke snorting model wearing some clothes in a magazine either. Some of what they model looks like random crap you’d find in a rag bag in the closet and would like to just see everyday woman model for once.
