The Life of a Model

When you watch something such as the Victoria's Secret fashion show, it's quite apparent that these are a group of the most beautiful women in the world. The other question, however, is can anyone be that naturally "perfect," or not. Well, apparently not.

Starting 3 months before the Victoria's Secret fashion show, the models must go on a fruits and vegetables "only" diet. Starting 3 days before the show, they go on a liquids "only" diet, and for a full 24 hours before the actual show, they are not allowed to consume any food or liquids at all.

So, clearly this does not seem healthy. However, does it make it socially acceptable for these women to go on such scary diet's when they're getting paid to do so? They are getting paid to look beautiful, and go through the necessary steps to accomplish that goal. However, something still just seems very twisted about the whole situation to me.
