Say whaaa???
London-based Premier Model Management has signed their first cartoon supermodel Polly Bean to its Special Division department.
The 2D model is a creation of cartoonist Neil Kerber, whose Supermodels comic strip has been running in Private Eye for the past 20 years.
Kerber says of Polly:
“After appearing in many of the strips, Polly is now emerging as a true star, breaking away and slowly starting to build her own following inside the fashion world. Apart from Polly’s obvious stunning beauty, and fantastic talents as a supermodel, what makes Polly so special is the wonderful way she commentates on the latest trends and issues, using incredible wit and humour, entertaining as she informs. Polly Bean is talking, and the fashion world is starting to listen.”
Sounds like someone’s been huffing too much ink.
We kid, we kid.
It’ll be inneresting to see where Premier goes with this and if other agencies will follow.
