We love to hear Cinderella stories like this one!
Alexander Beck is now an in demand model, but not too long ago he was working at a fish and chip shop making less than $10 an hour.
The 17 year old was randomly discovered by model scout Cesar Perin while walking out of a Cambridge bookstore in December.
Alexander said of the day that changed his life:
“That day in Cambridge I was about to walk out of the bookshop when Cesar shouted “stop I love your face” and came up to me. Cesar said he had never scouted anyone like that before. He was so nice and approachable – he made me feel instantly at ease.”
After that, Beck quit his job and was off to Milan for fashion week where he booked Prada exclusively, Gucci and Christian Dior.
Wow.
