The founder and most others at Oui were previously at Next Paris... and Women. They now have Ford, Elite and One 'feeding' them, right? Not bad at all, quite a network.

Oh, not really a groundbreaking event but Game Model Management in Paris seems to have disappeared...


And Milou van Groesen left Viva Models in Paris to join Women...

What's going on with Silent? I thought they were thought to be on the uprise and now all these girls leaving/have left?

So, what is the new agency of Colinne Michaelis in New-York ?

Silent NY is being restructured since two bookers left the agency.

Silent Paris remains the same and I guess they will keep their girls but from a couple of months ago they have nothing to do with Silent NY

Would Ana J. leaving Ford have anything to do with a booker leaving from Ford to Women?

 

[mainstay]

From what I understand, the scout who brought her from Next to Ford is no longer with the agency, so she felt no attachment to it and relocated to another agency.

 

[woemwoem]

Maybe that's why all the former Next girls have left Ford.

 

[CheshireCAT]

Maybe that's why all the former Next girls have left Ford.

Which other former Next girls?? Pedaru is still there though.
