Too much has happened for the first 5 months of 2026. We've had a huge smack from the reality of AI (along with the rest of the world), dived a little deeper into conversation with the public in terms of diversity and inclusivity, had some little relationship drama and here are my unfiltered unbiased unpopular reflections:
1. It doesn't matter if you're right or wrong. People sides who they like, or who paint a better picture. You're just tea, and tea doesn't feel.
2. If you're not showing that you've worked hard, you didnt.
3. I have the right to choose who I deem fit for the agency, I also have the responsibility to explain myself in a dozen videos before and after.
4. Singapore government isn't doing enough to protect our image rights against AI, and it isn't right. UK and Australia are alr sorting laws on that, and our local government is asking me to seek a lawyer for help. (?) AI is cool, but it isn't cool when it eats into our bread and butter. Image rights need to be protected.
5. If you wanna be a model and you're still not getting active on social media, then you prob wanna try something else. This is 2026, social media is the main window for you to be seen. Shoutout to those of you who dm-s me to check you out and your acct is private.
6. The industry is moving towards the more matured model, worldwide. That doesnt mean model agencies have to sign anyone and everyone that's 30 and above. You still need to fit the bill and meet the modeling standards.
7. Mother agents are not respected enough. Everyone talks about how models pay for their travel expenses and modeling expenses cos it's deducted from their future earnings, and that's true. But nobody talks about the 0% interest loans Mother Agency provides.
The number of times models drop me a text to advance for their house loans, for their trips, for their monthly credit card bills and I get it done as much as I can. Interest free. And there are alot of mother agents ard the world that does that too, they advance flights & pocket money for models who cant afford their first placement trips, & models just hop off to sign with the local agencies once they know the local market well. Come on.
This is the year where I feel everybody hates me, and regardless whatever I do and how much I give, it's never enough.
This is the year I feel exhausted.
Misunderstood.
Scammed.
Used.
Discarded.
Constantly put in the worst light possible, just because it's so easy to put the blame on somebody that looks bitchy enough and most prob too busy to fight back.
但主要是
这种负面情绪我真的没时间沉淀
我很忙
我要照顾的人很多
我要处理的状况很多
还有就是身为大人
我也不是完全无法体谅
但体谅本来就是个致命伤
不体谅反而轻松
我这边说完就算了
20周年上天是觉得要来点刺激的是不
我太岁是不是没有拜好啊我
