so, i am 15 years old and 5 '7 1/2-5 '8. my parents and grandparents are really tall. do i have a good chance when my mom is 6 ft. and my dad is 5 '10? i plan on loosing weight...i want to be about 125 lbs. but i want to do it the healthy way. i'm interested in modeling and i want to know: my chances in it, good agencies, and advise. thanks<3
Update:by the way, 125 is just my goal for right NOW. i'll prob. end up going lower. annnddd modeling isn't a career that i'm too deep into. i've always wanted to be an actress and i think this well help out a little bit. over the summer, i'll be doing auditions for One Tree Hill and etc. I've been an extra on it a couple times.<3

You are lucky you are so tall already. I'm 14 and only 5'1 and guess what?? I'm a model, so of course you can be a model. I weigh 100 lbs. Of course I don't get to do much runway modeling because of my height, but I do an occasional petite fashion or prom show. I focus mainly on print/commercial modeling where height is not so much of an issue. If you are a decent actress, it really helps your modeling because you need to be able to do different facial expressions. I enjoy acting as well and am an extra in Friday Night Lights. Be careful with your weight loss and yes do it the healthy way
! Best of luck to you!!
Well considering how tall you are and that you will be in good shape your chances are decent but it's not just about apperances you have to be able to model because there are always people way better looking than you and your modeling is what has to set you appart. About the agencies it depend on where you live.
Its great that you want to be healthy, but to model you will need to weigh about 107 at your height. Modeling is a very difficult industry to get involved in; why don't you try acting or some kind of performing that requires some talent? That will improve your self esteem rather than destroy it. Good luck!
If you go to a Agency and they want to charge you.its a scam.5'8 you would need to weigh about 115 to model.
yes you have a chance you got the right size for it so go for itt =]
i would say look for ads or if you know some agencies contact them
Look in the back of teen mags and there will be like jobs and stuff like that.......
good luck jus dnt go anorexic.
