Bar Refaeli tweets against use of thin models

  • 12 years ago
Bar Refaeli has come out publicly and strongly against the use of young girls for modelling at a very young age. Using the tweeter, social messaging tool, she said it made her very sad to see 15 year ols girls so thin. Rafaeli has been in the headlines a lot recently but it's usually because of acting or modelling, now she's dipped her foot into the battle against the use of extremely skinny girls in the fashion industry and her comments have been picked up by news agencies across the world. She added:"It makes me very sad to see girls in these agencies at age 15, gaunt and thin, trembling from hunger, when will it end?" Some countries such as Australia are already pushing legislation against the use of such thin models, in Israel too the photoshop law requests agencies to refrain from using ultra thin models
