You need to know the story of these 2 models

1/ John Economou 

This 21 year old boy used to surf on Venice beach. He was homeless at the time. 

John Economou confesses being homeless by choice, loving nature and chilling out. He enjoys going to his friends’ and spending time on the beach.

The funny part of this story is that one day, John saw seagulls bothering a group of people on the beach. Gigi Hadid and Kendall Jenner were two of them.  John chased the birds away and the models saw him. So the girls and John “casually” talked at first- the boy didn’t recognize the two celebrities at first he said [while interviewed by Access Hollywood]. Then he finally realized who they were and his future changed thanks to them.

Thanks to these girls, John is now a model. He is represented by 2 Management, a Los Angelan model agency.
Since then, he starred in a music video (Rock Bottom with Hailee Stenfield). He did photo shoots for in touch weekly magazine, Armani and, recently for Guess.He also appeared in Armani and Uniqlo commercials.

2/Bianca Balti

The Italian woman was only 20 when an agent encountered her in a supermarket. 

At the time she studied web design and was looking for a job “to pay for her holidays”. She dropped school for a while and earned money from modeling.

Since then, she was seen on most fashion shows: Zac Posen, Hermes, Prada… Bianca is also the ambassador of Dolce and Gabbana and l’Oreal. She recently made the cover of Grazia Germany magazine and Glamour Italy.

Mother of two little girls, wife and successful model, Bianca seems to know how to balance her social and professional life.

These two persons feel lucky and blessed.

Have faith in yourself like they did.

Hope you enjoyed.
