ninanina19 Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 Super models are celebrities. I don't know if I would consider Adriana one. When I think of modern super model I think of Gisele. Now she is a celebrity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taben Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 In France (Paris especially) the fashion industrie is big, so I think more models are known ? In New York it is different. Models on American ads looks different from French. Makeup, clothes - some ads are shared from country at country, but French is different. In France I think models are being more easy to recognise, because makeup is less concealing from the American. I know mes copains in Paris know that Louis Prades is and Gemma Ward and Jeremy Dufour, and everyone knows famous models like Moss and etc. Just for the very obscure model, in any countries, you have to be ineterested in that to know them.((My english is bad at nights, but I am OK in the days, d�sol�))i'm French too and i'd say that beside Laetitia Casta, Adriana Karembeu and Estelle Lef Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ninanina19 Posted April 18, 2007 Author Share Posted April 18, 2007 Even adults and not just teenage boys know who Petra is here. Because of the tsunami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chouette Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 One of my best friends mentionned Petra Nemcova the other day... and she felt she had to add "she's a swimsuit model, you know ?" and i was like "i know who petra nemcova is, i've known it for a few years now and i even know i despise her" she was kinda surprised... my model addiction is a secret one On a side note, i really doubt you don't know how to say in English what you say in French in your sentences, and since a lot of people here don't speak French i think that would be nice to make the effort to write only in English I am always doing that ! Sorry. It come from habit, I think ? No excuse, really. I am better speaking English, because that I use a translator for most of the writing, but when writing my own put French in my phrases. I will try to write only in English. And I am always say to my mom (almost put reum, ) who is this model and that. Like Gemma Ward. We see her all of the time in shopping malls.

Taben Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 hahaha no big deal, i understand it so i don't really care, although i prefer when someone either speak french or english, i'm not a fan of mixes.... but anyways if you're in the US right now you should stick to just English Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taben Posted April 18, 2007 Share Posted April 18, 2007 No one knows I'm obsessed with models here. No one here likes me enough to care :\ . i don't talk about it because i know some of my friends would be like "models ? what do they do beside being pretty ? and even then it's arguable..." so i just enjoy visiting BZ and tFS when i'm home alone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jennka Posted April 19, 2007 Share Posted April 19, 2007 she´s incredible!! But she has also played in "Le comte de Monte-Cristo" with Gérard Depardieu, so I thought she would be known in France Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
