[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 355453, member: 1991"] seriously, Daisy - can you find a LEGITIMATE agency and arrange an appointment for her? Work with her on a CV, list her skills, attributes etc and see what you have that would pass muster as a head shot (a lot easier these days with digital cameras). Then take her and the CV to an appointment. Let the agent tell her what she needs to hear! Nobody legitimate is going to take on somebody who hasn't got what it takes. So either they'll take her on because she CAN be a model and CAN sing, or they'll tell her a few home truths. But THEY will be the ones telling her, not you. You said you used to model - is it possible that at some level she is competing with you? A sort of, "I know my mother used to be a model but she couldn't hack it. I'm going to be a model too, only I will stick it out and I will be bigger than Naomi Campbell, bigger than any of the supermodels then I can use that to become a great singer..." and trying to be bigger and better than you. If so - very unhealthy. But if so, maybe you could consider enrolling in further studies? You know - at whatever level you finished your education, go back and take it further. Or at least talk about it. Then let her compete with THAT! Marg [/QUOTE]
