You Can’t Ask That: Models (S7EP5 ABC TV Wed 15 June 2022)
From the very first question “Can you read this card?’ the eight MODELS in this episode realise this isn’t going to be an easy red-carpet interview. Elaine Estreich (formerly known as Elaine George) the first Aboriginal model to grace the cover of Vogue bites back with a turn of phrase that instantly makes you love her “We’re not ditzy bitches, just because we’re good lookin.” While Chloe Maxwell, who found fame in the untamed 90’s, said of her catwalk experiences “Champagne, that was a must at every fashion parade, I can’t remember ever doing one sober.”
Elaine and Chloe are joined by Bridgette Malcolm, a Perth girl who conquered the modelling world, Sarah Stephens, who won the Girlfriend magazine model search when she was just 16, ex-male model Luke Wallace, plus size model Mahalia Handley, model/activist Khadija Gbla, and South Sudanese Australian model Malaan Ajang.
From the pitfalls of ‘pretty privilege,’ to teenage exploitation, unrealistic beauty standards, and mental health issues, the models on tonight’s program share the unvarnished truth about one of the most admired, desired and least understood professions in the world.
Airdate: Wednesday 15 June 2022 at 9.10pm on ABC TV.
