Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
everyone is being negatvie about your question telling you not to do it full stop!.
but i totally know what its like to have a dream that everyone tells you isnt reachable!.

i really think that if you want to be a glamour model go for it!
it is illegal to get your top of before your 18, but lots of agencys emply 16-18 year old girls to do shoots in lingerie and swimwear!.

just be carefull of people trying to charge you money as entrance fees to thier society!.

id send pictures to samantha bond, its the most well known agency!.

GOOD LUCKKK XWww@QuestionHome@Com

Don't send the photos!.

Wait until it's legal before you consider a career in glamour modelling!.

also consider how you would feel if your family, friends, boyfriend or future husband discovered your career!.!.!.!.would it concern you if they weren't happy with your choice!?

The worst that can happen is that some sleazy person who does not care about your youth, will plaster the pictures on the Internet and you may not even get paid!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? 16 years old and considering porn ALREADY!? You're young enough that you have a fighting chance in this world and you're already about to throw it all away!

Whats the worst that can happen!? Well a lot of dangerous things involving crazy people!. But lets just focus on yourself today!.

The choices you make now will effect you for the rest of your life!. Take this seriously, and think about the future!. This will follow you forever!. When I was your age, I worked 2 jobs and went on to finish highschool!. These choices that I have made have led me to an enjoyable life!. I'm still young! I see better things to come, and it's because I'm making safe(for the most part) and responsible choices!. A few of my highschool friends on the other hand are a different(and sad) story!.

I'm not telling you to go out and get 2 jobs, but do what you have to do to make your future bright and easy!. It may be hard now, but you will be so so so thankful in the future when you can say you worked hard to get where you're at and have nothing from your past to worry about!.

Let me know if you need any better advice!. I honestly care because you remind me of some great people I know who simply made dumb decisions!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

you really need to be careful of them!

seriously your 16, you dont want to be getting into that type of business at this age; it will make you seems *sorry to be rude; easy and it will just mess you up if you get into the wrong crowd,

if you still are considering it in the next couple of years; take it up when your at least 18 when your more aware of yourself and feel you could defend yourself if need be!. :)xxxxWww@QuestionHome@Com

No wonder they want you to do it online, its illegal and its not glamour model, that's a glorified way of saying teen porn - you're not old enough to be asked to do that by any reputable agency, you should report them - the worst that could happen is you get nothing and everyone in your school, your family etc sees your boobies!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Things to remember!.!.!.

People WILL find out - not just friends and family now but in the future if you are trying to get a "respectable" job e!.g!. regular modelling, acting, politics, teaching etc!.

You may be ripped off with promises of high pay but then have big deductions from your pay - e!.g!. Management Fees, Equipment Hire, Rent

Pay your taxes

It'll probably screw up your love/sex life - jealous partners etc

General sleaze - e!.g!. casting couch scenarios, offers of money for "harder" work etc!.

Bring a chaperone - preferably an adult with experience in the industry so they will be able to defend you and advise on what is normal and what is not!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Taking your top off will not get you recognised in the REAL modelling industry, infact it would make potential employers not look at you twice!. It's hard work to get into a real modelling agency, have professional photos taken and go about it in the right way, showing your top half isn't the right way, sorry!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

don't do it!. you have to be 18 to do topless shoots!. it sounds like a scam to me!.!. esp with webcam!. i'd just start looking up agency's onlne!. maybe look into hollister or american eagle first then you can move on from there once you have a portfolio- maybe start off with getting some pictures done professionally so you have something to walk in with!.

worst that can happen: they dont pay you, photos end up online somewhere, among other things!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Um, your 16!. You could seriously regret it in the future for one once you get alittle more common sense!. Have some self respect!.!.!.and I don't mean that in a bitchy tone or anything, I really mean it!. Those agencies are most likely bogus anyway!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

DONT agree!. It sounds like some sort of scam or pornography thing! if an agency is genuine you wouldn't be asked such obscenities straight away!.
Research agencies yourself and decide from there- but this seriously sounds dangerous!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Go for it!.

Thats the same thing im doing!. But im the photographer and pay £100 an hour!. Ive been making photographs of models for over 3 years!.

good luck!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Your age! You have to be 18 as far as I know to do that sort of thing!. Be careful of the agency if they are asking this of you at that ageWww@QuestionHome@Com

Hi Rebecca!.

Please dont even think about this!.
It is probably a porno agency, especially asking you to do webcam as well!.

Take care!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Um explotation and rape!.You can't afford to be naive in that kind of industry,think it through for the next 2 years(thats when you are legal)!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

sorry me again i answered above!.
email me if you want anything else, ive been there done that and im still only 18!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well one that's illegal!. And two, if you want to stoop to that disgusting level!.!. wait until you finish puberty!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Easy money, but wait till you're 18!. Or go for it then sue everyone!.

But its easy money at what expense!? What would your mum say! Think carefully, its probably hard to go back from thatWww@QuestionHome@Com

Are you serious!?!?!? You are 16!!!!! Do NOT take your top off for anyone! They should be arrested that is soooo illegal! Don't do it!!Www@QuestionHome@Com

Uhhh!.!.!.!.go back to school!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
