    The title of this video refers to the stereotypes that are sometimes (often!) applied to models. It's just a bit of a ramble about how I'm actually on the short side and have a quirky look and some other bits of info about myself. I hope that you find it interesting in parts...
    Thank you SO much for watching my videos and leaving brilliant comments, I really appreciate it.
    PS - my shirt is from ASOS - I love it so much!

    My friend recommended your channel to me because I have a gap that I usually have trouble accepting and liking, and you have definitely made a difference in the way I think about my teeth

    You look very young. What is your anti-aging secret? I'd say that even the expression on your face is very youthful.

    I remember seeing you in 'This Model Life' on Channel 4 a few years ago and I thought you seemed like an absolutely lovely girl back then too! Congrats on reaching 100,000 subscribers, you deserve it! x

    If you didn't tell your age, I would think you were in your 20s. you look so young! and you were in one of zoella's videos right? I remember see you trying on orange lip balm that was handmade by a fan of zoella's.

  • @heatherclark3152
    @heatherclark3152 10 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I think you are amazing, I also think promoting perfection is wrong as it has a negative impact on people (especially teenagers like me) but the gap in your teeth makes you real. it shows you're a real individual not a perfect plastic Barbie. You are beautiful! its great to be different , its what makes you stand out ! :D

  • @hj471230
    @hj471230 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    You are absolutely stunning and I think you are perfect just the way you are. I love that you arent the "average model". Your sweet personality comes through every video and thats why I love watching you and reading your blog. Thanks for all the effort you put into this.

  • @cocoonheart3701
    @cocoonheart3701 10 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    Your teeth is lovely and don't change it, it gives you an unique look and as you said and you aware of this, ignore it:) you look for 25 year old max to me, as I started watching your videos today and thought you're younger than me! Also your recent video with your mum...you like like a teenager on the footage:) I think it's great. I'm jealous:D

  • @IrinaBravoActress
    @IrinaBravoActress 10 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I started to watch your videos today, and I am madly in love with your channel! I felt immensely inspired for you, you are so pretty and you look as a really honest and interesting person. I would love to see you one day on live on a runway now that I am living in London! Consider me as an another big fan of your videos and your personality!

  • @astridwang5012
    @astridwang5012 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love you even more now :P, just because your skin look so good as a person whose job requires much makeup, seriously! People here get so negative about students putting on makeup--I started fashion and beauty at comparably quite a young age, as a native Chinese, and most of school, especially good ones don't allow student to have any fashionable hairs and outfits needless to say wearing makeup! Thought I m still in school and my mom is fine with it, YOU are now a living example to show!

  • @minibndistributeurdesourir7382
    @minibndistributeurdesourir7382 8 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Actually I love your teeth, look Vanessa Paradis have them too and in french we call then the lucky teeth (dents du bonheur ) ;)

    @Makeupbypatricia 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I already said congrats on twitter, but I had to say it on here as well. Congratulations! You are brilliant at what you do and a role model for many women out there including me. Now for my questions: 1) is there anyone you haven't worked with/for but you'd love to? 2) you mentioned you have traveled a lot - which are your favorite countries and where would you like to go next?

  • @DouceVipere
    @DouceVipere 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

  • @ChelceyThompson

    I have a gap too and I've always felt very shy about it until hearing you talk about your teeth. You're a beautiful inspiration! Thanks Ruth!

  • @hotnspicy474
    @hotnspicy474 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

  • @hannahoneill9033
    @hannahoneill9033 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Nobodys perfect,including models so how can someone comment on her teeth?? That is so horrible clearly someone viewed her as beautiful because shes a model and is absolutely stunning this goes to show that "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"

    What made you decide to finish with an English Literature degree instead of that law degree you were initially going for?
    Also, I was wondering if you could give me some advice, I'm an English major right now going for my undergraduate degree. Do you think it's better to have a concentration like literature or a plain ol' English degree and then have a concentration in graduate school? I probably should be asking my advisor this but he kind of terrifies me haha

    you are so gorgeous Ruth! I know exactly what you mean by saying that the models that are doing well at the moment are not your stereotypical 'pretty models'. Referring to Cara Delevinge, she is stunning but very quirky, obviously her asset being her eyebrows! I loved this video and I couldn't agree more! x

  • @penelopelamb8110
    @penelopelamb8110 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi! Thanks for making this video. Your advice was quite helpful, specifically to make modelling a plan B. and something you said about it being sort of hard to make an income of modelling. When I watch your videos, it encourages me to go to the fashion shows and walk down the ile, and to call agencies. Last time I was in a modelling agency, the manager wanted me to walk in heels, like six inches too, and I couldn't; I was twelve. Now I'm fifteen, I'd like to show that manager how I can walk now.

    @melinac.7311 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    In French, when you have a little "gap" (I don't know how it's called...) between front teeth we say that you have " Les dents du bonheur", the translation would be something like "Happiness teeth". That's not disgusting at all :)

    After your finished with a modeling job do you usually keep in touch with the production house or the designer?
    When you have a modeling job what makes you feel the most comfortable before getting on the runway? Or doing a photo shoot?
    Have you ever been asked to wear foot wear that is difficult to walk in? What do you do when confronted with this challenge?

  • @TheBrazenGirl
    @TheBrazenGirl 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    I love how the type of models changed in the last years from 'boring' perfection beauty to attractiveness as in people who might not be standard beauty but damn attractive because they just have something special. Look at Georgia May Jagger who know is the face of Cavalli's new perfume - I bet you they booked her because of the cute little gap in her teeth.
    I think you are utterly attractive and me as someone who has a little gap in her front teeth as well, I think you are absolutely gorgeous!

    what is you're favorite color?
    what is you're favorite meal to prepare?
    food you can't live without?
    favorite nail varnish color?
    Have a nice day. x

    Hi Ruth, if you don't mind I have lots of questions for your next vid: At what age did you start modeling? Was it difficult to book jobs at first? Were you ever in debt to your agency? When did you start to actually make money? (I really want to begin modeling, but I'm scared that I'll get stuck in loads of debt :/ ) Thanks, you're awesome!

  • @SoriahsASMRTingleWonderland
    @SoriahsASMRTingleWonderland 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wonderful video. You are so down to earth and I think that the gap in between your teeth gives you a very diverse look. There are plenty of models with diastema and they are very beautiful, just like yourself. I was wondering if you could please do a study tip video and perhaps what you do to stay awake and study late into the night. Could you perhaps include favorite books of the week, month? Thank you for the inspiring videos. It is no wonder you have that many subscribers.

  • @hairpluckingasmr6352

    Hi Ruth! Congratulations on your well deserved YT success! It's lovely getting to know a bit more about you. I think it's wonderful that you're still in school, and yes, I believe we're allowed to have eating as a hobby :-) Love the films you do with the Sorted Food boys!
    You must hear it all the time, but Lauren Hutton was also an incredibly successful and beautiful model who has a gap in her teeth. It was viewed as sexy!
    Finally, for whatever it's worth, I think you're way above average!
