Cameron Russell Ted Talk: Looks aren’t everything. Believe me,

I’m a model.

Cameron Russell has been modeling for over ten years, and while most women envy supermodels; Cameron makes it clear that herself and other models might be the most insecure women on earth. When listening to every word she says it all comes together and makes so much sense for young girls who aspire to be models one day as I once did.

• Cameron came onto the “TED Stage” in a little black dress. She spoke about the “image” the dress gave off the audience, and drew the crowd in even more when she completely changed her appearance by changing into a long skirt, sweater, and flat shoes. We all knew she had something to saw then...

Cameron gave really good advice to young girls who say they want to model

when they are older. Its not all about the photographs,

and I think thats an important point to make.

Theres so many other great things you can do in life,

and she even gives them a list!

During Cameron’s talk, I think she made a lot a great points. She did seem nervous throughout the Ted talk though. She sometimes would begin to speak a little too fast or

laugh to maybe keep calm. I am not so great with public speaking myself,

so I know these things.

Overall Cameron did a great job, she was able to capture and keep the audiences

attention. With her words alone, she didn’t allow her looks to overshadow

anything she had to say, and I think that was a very important key for success.

I am a very shy speaker, while watching Cameron I learned its okay to laugh even when somethings not

funny to everyone else in the room. This Ted Talk showed me that you can capture a large crowds

attention by just being yourself and being honest.

Advice

• Be yourself

• Be open and honest

• Make the crowd want more

• Be genuine

• And make them laugh, everyone loves to laugh
