They wanted me with with a Japanese haircut and shirtless, hence why I turned it down. Not really like the typical "wear a business suit and look like you're doing something important" photo shoot. My friend, like I said, took the same agency up on the offer and now I get to lol at the photos on Facebook.

Edit: I should add that it's also like a tenured modeling agency, so they weren't looking for just a one time deal.


I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.
