this is very depressing.. every model that switches into more of a commercial career loses most of thier appeal very quickly (in my eyes, anyways)
I've heard this too ... someone like Gisele at one point walked for $30,000 .. and I'm sure that's an out of date fact, she'd walk for a lot more than that now. Editorials pay a lot less because there is a big benefit for the model that's worth a lot more than the money itself, world wide exposure. Editorials offer a lot more exposure than runway shows, because let's face it - not everyone goes and looks up runway shows or watches them the way we do... more people are likely to just pick up a magazine.
