It was a Thursday I think..I was heading to a club and I’m not going to lie, I was getting there pretty late. Usually I get there earlier, but this time it was around 2 am. Despite the time, I was expecting to say the promoters name I know, walk right in, find the table, and party. Safe to say expectations were not met lol.
There were two door people, a guy and a girl. The dude was going to let me in, but the woman wanted to charge me cover. Now, I’m not saying I’m above paying cover, but it had not planned on it, nor was it mentioned; so therefore, I won’t pay it because of the principle. So after exchanging words with this woman she starts to make a scene. I mean I enjoy a funny situation, so I thought it was amusing she was getting loud and making fun at the fact I was trying to get in without paying. After playing me to the left numerous times, she boldly says, “the only way your getting into this club for free is if your an entertainer or a model.” So I then said “well I am a model,..” She then replied, sarcastically of course, “Really?.. Who are you signed with?..” So now I had explain that I just got out here and I wasn’t signed as of yet.
She enjoyed my response wayyyyy too much. Her face lit up as she said “well I guess you aren’t really a model now are you?” (Ouch! haha) I have to give her credit, she adequately had played me in front of random strangers out front of that night club. So of course I told her I would be back as soon as I got signed just to rub it in her face, as she gives me the free admission she promised lol.
A few days later, God has blessed me with another great opportunity for success by allowing me to sign with AIM Model Management. I just signed last Friday, so I’m guessing I will have some pictures on the site pretty soon. The people at AIM are extremely confident in me and feel that I can be a great asset to them, and I feeling is mutual. As always, your nervous as hell when signing a contact with someone, but I didn’t let that stop me from making my decision. I guess I have to go back to that club and rub it in Sophie’s face, yeah, I said her name haha I don’t care.
I guess now it’s time for “test shoots”, “go sees”, and all that good stuff. Looks like my plan is slowly working its way out! Next is seeing how I can get some side money out here because NYC is taxxxxx. Might try to wait tables or bartend, just to be stereotypical to this industry lol.
