Models Direct: when Nintendo needed a princess, they came to us

Bristol, UK ( PressReleaseCollection ) july 16, 2009 – It's every young women's dream to be a princess for a day, but for 19 year old London model Yasamine that dream became a reality when she was asked to work as a model to appear on the packaging of Nintendo's new Princess Debut computer game.

Yasamine had her hair and makeup done and dressed up in a ball gown and was asked to pretend to be a princess at a ball for the photo shoot. What a great start to a career in modelling!

Nintendo is one of the world's leading games manufacturers, and Princess Debut is one of their top games for girls. In the game, the player has 30 days to get ready for the big ball. In that time, they have to master dance moves, choose the perfect outfit and find a Prince Charming to take to the ball.

When 5'2” Yasamine decided that she wanted to become a model, she signed up with Models Direct, one of the largest modelling agencies in the UK.

Yasamine enjoyed the Princess Debut job immensely. “I was asked to act like a princess and dance as if I was at a ball, smiling and feeling excited to see my prince,” she said. “It felt amazing, dressing up, pretending to be a princess - you can't complain!”

But like any good model, most of all Yasamine was very satisfied at having delivered what the client needed, and she commented that “the best thing was the client telling me that they were very pleased with my performance.”

Her advice for other young people that aspire to become a model is simple: “Believe in yourself, put 100% in and mainly enjoy yourself.”

Take that advice on board, and maybe you could be living a fairytale life working as a model too!
