To be fair on them, despite what their instagrams show it is a lot of work. My girlfriend follows Alexis Ren and showed me her workout routine, it's easily 3 hours a day. Which combined with reaching out to brands, dealing with advertisers, scheduling, photoshoots etc I could easily see it being a full time job. Plus the constant dieting on top of all that which I can't remember the details of, but I know is hugely restrictive: no eating after 5pm and zero alcohol for example.
For sure a lot of them are pretty low effort and just do it as a side job, but I don't think it's as simple as just being attractive and I don't think a lot of them are as entitled as they seem.
- drb91 8y agoIt seems a lot like managing your own modeling and PR business. I am not by any means saying that all influencers are attractive (or that it’s the source of their popularity when they are!) but the line between being an influencer and an “instagram model” seems very wide and grey.
- coatmatter 8y agoIt's a term that I only see the media industry using. It's all cut from the same cloth but at the end of the day, advertising works.
