November 28, 201014 yr Anja, Karlie, Malgosia, Abbey... to name the biggest names in NEXT. Pending payments must be a normal thing, since it happened to Anna and she was definitely one of the agency's biggest stars. It's terrible how unprotected models are and no one wants to change it
November 28, 201014 yr She made it to the final callbacks, but unfortunately wasn't casted Maybe she had another projects or simply wasn't chosen to do the show...
November 30, 201014 yr Further deitails on the lwsuit against NEXT. Article from jezebel.com: What Vogue Actually Pays Its ModelsIt's not much! Filings made in association with a $3.75 million lawsuit include the earnings statement of one of the plaintiffs, the Polish supermodel Anna Jagodzinska. That ledger tallies gigs for American Vogue, Vogue Paris, and an H&M campaign. Jagodzinska, pictured here in an ad for the jewelry brand David Yurman, is suing her former agency, Next, for allegedly stealing $320,000 of her earnings; her co-plaintiffs are the Estonian Karmen Pedaru, who accuses Next of taking $400,000, and the Pole Anna Cywinska, who says she's out $30,000. These models left Next in April of this year, and are claiming that since then, Next has flatly refused to pay them their money. There are two main issues in the lawsuit. Each plaintiff is seeking the return of those earnings, plus $1 million in punitive damages. Additionally, the three allege that Next's breach of fiduciary duty was so extensive and so serious that they want the right to open their former agency's books to identify other victims. (Full disclosure: when I modeled, Next was my agency in New York and Los Angeles. After I stopped working, in the summer of 2009, Next paid me my outstanding earnings in full and in what I considered a timely manner.) To document their claims, Jagodzinska and Pedaru filed at Manhattan Supreme Court copies of the seven-page contracts they signed with Next and assorted other papers. Among them is Jagodzinska's account statement at Next, dated April 23, 2010. It's pretty interesting: So what does it show? This is not a record of Jagodzinska's full income for the month or for the year
December 1, 201014 yr Anna during YES 2011 calendar presentation: [lansik.pl; pomponik.pl] Beautiful She looks great with black eyeliner
December 1, 201014 yr ^ 2nd and 6th photo (the one with a hat) are to die for. She looked pretty at the YES presentation, btw who is that woman in glasses next to her?!? From J. Crew pics, I like the "boot up" the most. Don't really have time right now to read the whole article about models vs. NEXT, but will do later, the whole thing sounds very fishy and I hope this will change the situation, if it really happens to many models Olga-THANK YOU very much for the updates
December 3, 201014 yr ^ Are you sure that's Anna?!? I mean, the model looks awfully similar but I have my doubts
December 3, 201014 yr Love her at the YES Calender presentation. And her shots for the calender and J Crew are divine. Thanks everyone!
December 6, 201014 yr ^ Are you sure that's Anna?!? I mean, the model looks awfully similar but I have my doubts I think it's Anna - just too photoshopped. She had a promo picture for Shinsegae before (with similar hair): [shinsegae.com]
December 6, 201014 yr The calendar photos are so stunning they make me wanna go to YES and see what should I buy to get the calendar I'm still mesmerized by the hat one.
