If America’s Next Top Model is any guidance, these days, models are allowed — perhaps even encouraged — to have piercings… Steph tells me it’s the same in Germany.

On one of the seasons of America’s Next Top Model, there was an absolutely gorgeous brunette with tons of tattoos in the top 20 I believe. Sadly, she didn’t make it too far.

snake_charmer on March 4th, 2008 at 2:58 pmI don’t recall any pierced top model people.. except for maybe a notstril stud or something. I could be wrong though. It would be nice to see more pierced models in the main stream
VOMIT on March 4th, 2008 at 3:03 pmWOAH she’s Beautiful.
deadlypoison on March 4th, 2008 at 3:06 pmshe’s very beautiful and her piercings are quite complimentary to her features. and those are some interesting eyebrows…
scarlett johansson has her septum pierced, but typically wears a retainer to events. maybe models and actresses alike will soon be able to have modifications, although tattoos on actors are very common.
nope on March 4th, 2008 at 3:24 pmBeautiful :]
Caspar on March 4th, 2008 at 3:35 pmNot only are the piercings complimentary to her features but I love the angular eyebrows! Very nice indeed :]
She is gorgeous. Wow.
kitsch on March 4th, 2008 at 3:44 pmSadly, piercing and tattoos are very very limited to alternative glam/fashion/etc still. However, it’s understandable. In high fashion photography, a specific look is needed, most of the time tattoos and piercings are not.
A competitive model will avoid anything that makes them unmarketable, scars, piercing, tattoos. However, there is a slow change.
Very slow.
European countries are more open, although in mainstream fashion there’s still little to nothing. The alt modeling is becoming a bigger niche though.
Also, god I love septums, I’ve been thinking on it long and hard to get one, I’m always unsure to if it’d look decent on me, a lot of people sorta freak out whenever I mention it. So possibly it might not(then again I also have a very conservative friend circle, if only they knew.)
Terpinen-4-ol on March 4th, 2008 at 3:52 pmVery sexy women, I agree that her piercings make her much more interesting to look at.
Lane Jensen on March 4th, 2008 at 4:07 pmShe is HOT.
lippi on March 4th, 2008 at 4:28 pmin Brasil’s Next Top Model a quite heavily tattooed girl got to be in the final 3 girls… But she end up in third :(
assada on March 4th, 2008 at 4:46 pmGorgeous Woman & Great pictures!
Gen on March 4th, 2008 at 5:08 pmHooray for Modded Models :)
fuck!!! she is fucking hot!!!
evaristo on March 4th, 2008 at 5:47 pmWell I don’t know about the 3rd season of Germany’s next top model that just started last week, but on the last two the models were more than encouraged (if not half way forced. or so it was portrayed on the show) to take out their piercings etc. Even tongue and belly button piercings were an absolute no-go.
Becci on March 4th, 2008 at 7:26 pmI know a contestant named Jael wore a ring in her nostril, and had a tattoo on her nape.
A bunch have nostril studs/small tattoos/bellybuttons pierced, but other than that, you don’t see much.
Nivek on March 4th, 2008 at 9:20 pmshe is beautiful.
London on March 4th, 2008 at 9:36 pmgorgeous! omg.
paperscratcher on March 4th, 2008 at 11:07 pmI’d love to see models with symmetrical lowbrets, a medusa, eyebrows… that’d be gorgeous. But then again, designers wouldn’t want anything on the girls to “distract from the outfits”. What a shame.
Cosette on March 5th, 2008 at 1:32 amOn Holland’s Next Top Model season 2 about half of the contestants had their tongue pierced. And there’s Omahyra (plays in X-men as well) that has several tattoos.

she rocks!
I lover her eyes, they’re really beautiful.
The septum piercing looks really good on her.
I really admire Angelina Jolie for not caring what the media etc. makes of her tattoos and shows them off whenever she can.
twistedthriler on March 5th, 2008 at 8:33 amModels get paid to be pretty coathangers. Not to look ‘unique’.
Not a fan of modded models outside of ’specialist’ work tbh.

penski on March 5th, 2008 at 9:53 amThe 2nd pic reminds me of a modified Jamie Lee Curtis.
Eric on March 5th, 2008 at 11:18 amher head looks so big in these photos (particularly the second one)
goomy on March 5th, 2008 at 11:28 amI find there are more and more modded hair models
loveunderwill on March 5th, 2008 at 2:39 pmWoah, she looks amazing.
Eleanor on March 5th, 2008 at 6:07 pmShe is beautiful!
Sassie_L on March 6th, 2008 at 5:21 amthx@all

she’s gorgeous!
and hey, models with piercings? STELLA TENANT! she was totally gorgeous, a supermodel, and rocked her septum piercing.
dolly on March 7th, 2008 at 11:35 pmi googled stella tenant and couldn’t find any pictures with her septum in. while it’s cool that she and others have mods, i wish they could show them while they were working. obviously some have successfully (those photos of tasha tilberg show that), but i’d like to think aesthetics are changing enough that eventually we might see a little more. models are also required to be unusual and stand out from the crowd, not just be clothes hangers, so mods would totally fit in.
