Yeah I saw that Video a few weeks ago and Thought the same thing.

I used to represent Ellen.  Nice lady.  But what the video shows is what it takes to be successful at her level - a near obsessive concern and care for her hands and feet.   It might seem creepy, but it's a professional requirement.

-I would guess the on screen persona would come across as strange if you could see her face/expression, hear her voice and experience her general demeanor on camera.

-But I would say she makes an excellent "for print" hand model.

(did you see that goregoues manicure? wow.)

I'm still laughing, but mostly at the negative press she is getting. Having worked with hand and foot models all of my career I can say without exception that she is a normal and lovely human being compared with most I've run into. About the only thing she did that could be considered quirky is the constant petting of her hands, but knowing how guarded most models are about their livelihood, the petting almost seemed humorous. She might be a touch quirky, but if you stop to think about it, most of us have never met one another yet we still continue to bash each others brains out with a keyboard. When viewed in that light, she probably is more normal than we are.

YES!  Where do I sign up?
