I'm a little confused.....
I think Emmy is a really nice person!
Anyway, she could be a model, because she's tall, talented, beautiful, and she's photogenic too. I could just imagine her on the catwalk.
What do you guys think?
Well, she's definately pretty enough, but she's only 5"7, and most runway models are 5"8 or taller. Plus, I think she's too talented for modeling. She's got a ton of potential between her acting chops and her singing voice. She's probably going to be working hard to develop both in the next few years. And she's got her studies at Columbia in her spare time! I don't know if she'd have the time to model.
I also don't think it would be suited to her personality. Emmy has said that she wants a say in everything she does, from movies to photoshoots. If she's told to pose in a way, or wear somethng that she feels doesn't reflect who she is, she won't do it. She said this in Elle: "sometimes I don't want to wear a certain dress, say, because I don't think it reflects who I am, so I'll choose another dress or eyeliner or whatever". A model pretty much has to wear what their told, walk where their told, and pose how they're told. Patrick Wilson (her Phantom costar) said that she's very collaborative, and she's said that she enjoys working with talented, accomplished people and learning from them. Most models aren't given the opportunity for collaboration.
As for whether or not she mean, who knows? I think she seems like a nice person but also very savvy, assertive, confident and intelligent (which is often interpreted as bitchy in women). She's said she felt uncomfortable at school.Here's the bit from the Elle article: "she attended Spence, the tony all-girls prep school (Gwyneth's alma mater). She was, she insists, “the least posh girl there. I was totally, totally unpopular.” Rossum now thinks her failure to fit in was for the best. “The truth is, I probably didn't want to be friends with some of those girls because I found that a lot of their values were a little specious,” she says, noting that having the right Gucci bag has never been her priority. “Now of course all those girls are calling me and being like, 'We should have lunch!' And I'm like, Um…don't you remember how you didn't like me that much?” Meanwhile some of the girls who went to school with her said that she was stuck up and didn't want anythng to do with them etc. Which is quite possible- it sounds she didn't make an effort to make friends with the girls she went to school with, because she felt that she didn't have muxh in common with them.
Overall, I think she seems like a decent, nice enough person, who has a strong personality which sometimes makes her diffcult to get along with. But I've never met her so I really can't say.
