How To Tell If Someone Has Star Quality As A Model

How can you tell if someone has star quality?

Finding a great model is like finding a great book: you can never be sure if someone has got star quality or not. It's that X factor, that sixth sense, whatever you want to call it, and I've represented some really gorgeous girls who would stop cars when they walk down the street, but I couldn't get them arrested when I sent them to clients. It's not purely about the looks at all. Everybody in the industry needs to feel like they've discovered something, so that when a girl walks into a room, they think, "You know what? I can see something in her that you can't. I can bring out this magic in this girl." So being pretty is absolutely not good enough at all. It's about something that happens behind the lens; it's about a relationship that a girl can have with a photographer. A model has to inspire wherever she goes, or else she just won't make it.
