London, Feb 28 (PTI) Model Karolina Kurkova has slammed social media stars, who are making a name for themselves via Instagram and Twitter.
The former Victoria's Secret Angel is not impressed with models who are making a name for themselves via social media, claiming it is "dangerous", reported Femalefirst.
"When I started modelling there was no social media, I didn't come from a rich family and I didn't date anyone famous--my work spoke for me. I'm glad, because I learned discipline, dedication and patience, and it kept me grounded," the 31-year-old model said.
"Now you can be famous so easily and it's dangerous, it can mess with your head. People are coming from left and right with two million followers and, whether they say they're a model or a stylist, they've never trained, never worked with anybody, never sacrificed anything.
Kurkova also said the stars born out of social media are taking work from people, who dedicate "their time and energy on the craft."
"They're taking work from people who gave up their time and energy to learn their craft. I'm not judging, but who's going to have the longevity? You might be cool right now, but how long will it last? Are people going to get tired of you?" she said.
