Hi

AllieBongo · 25/06/2006 08:56

thanks iz, spk to you all soon!

mrratty · 25/06/2006 11:15

someone wrote "if you were stupid enough to join an agency on the word of someone from an internet forum, thats your own fault!" What then is the point of this forum. I understand that we cannot take the word of one person but surely the whole point of this thread is to help people and give them the best advice we can offer.

fanny5 · 25/06/2006 11:25

agreed mrratty > it would be silly to take the word of someone that you dont know that posted on here, but if someone on here is offering advice and telling stories about all the work her daughter has done, I wonder if anything she says can be believed?

Look at CK webite! on the public page there is no sign of her dd on any of those jobs?

Chatroom are dodgy places, we all know that, but you dont expect an adult to be telling those whoppers do you and for years! I wonder what the motif is and now think it is just that she is jealous of all the work the other parents are getting so makes things up to feel a part of it all.

thats really sad

what else have you lied about izzy, come on get it off your chest honey! you will feel better for it you know! trust me

hemart · 25/06/2006 11:27

this is all really stupid, izzyrubi gives good advice on all agencies and not only the ones her child is with, my daughter recently joined mot thanks to her advice but I tried many agencies and I thought mot was the right one, if my daughter doesn't get work I will blame myself, not her.

hemart · 25/06/2006 11:29

fanny5 you just want to pick a fight? don't you see that most people here are friends with izzyrubi and believe nothing you or gulg say? just get out of it, you won't find what you're looking for.

twoandfour · 25/06/2006 11:43

i'm a reader more than a poster but was having a laugh with this fight. my kids r with a k and i have personally met izzyrubi (so lucky i am) at two castings so she does exist, tcharaaam!!!!!!!!! if u go back to the jobs izzy said her daughter's done she did not mention any agency, only the jobs, so either u can't read or maybe u don't want to read!

fanny5 · 25/06/2006 11:43

people dont want to be lied to, you might do but i dont for one! dont care about advice shes given out, we can all provide that my dear.

Not picking a fight just stating my opinion, which I am entitled to do (this is a public forum after all lol - as izzyrubi's cronies keep pointing out!!)

funny how all these certain people suddenly appear when izzy is put on the spot about something. You wouldn't happen to be all in the same room, same family, or even worse the same person!!

you are all coming in to try and make her right when she is obviously wrong? whats that about. If I had a friend as you put it, that i found out has lived a walter mitty life for months on here, I'd want to know why, funny that you all just blast straight thru that and just say 'stop picking a fight'........

dont you think i expected that to happen and i think tata and me, and most probably a few more on here (those that arent izzy of course) were expecting nothing less either! .

fanny5 · 25/06/2006 11:52

TWOANDFOUR!!!! oh darling youre good! lol. where the hell did you come from, just browsing the net were you and came across a thread about someone you know and thought youd join in....you will have to do better than that

i havent said izzy dont exist, we know that cos she meets everyone love. and it is you that cant read properly cos there are loads of threads on here where she says she got a call from ck for audition, then ck called with job etc etc..get your glasses out and read.

Izzy go another route cos that one didnt work

hunkermunker · 25/06/2006 12:09

Why does it matter? I'm honestly interested.

It just looks barking to an outsider.

All this talk of sole agent and work or no work - why not focus on your own children and not worry about what other people are doing?

Or is it more sinister than that and I'm missing something?

[puzzled and on the wrong thread probably]

Snafu · 25/06/2006 12:10

Here, have a hard hat, hunker

mykidsmum · 25/06/2006 12:18

It is all as barking as it sounds Hunker, Iz is a quite normal mum who has given advice on here and for some reason there are others out to trip her up. She has had a rough ride recently with a poorly child and a new baby, I cannot believe that she is coming under fire in such a big way from people who I'm afraid come across as being vindictive and petty. Throwing accusations of name changers is pathetic, its all been done before pot and kettle and all that. We are not all stupid I can see through it all, you atre winning no respect and certainly are not tarring Izzy's name as those of us who know her don't need to be proved anything. Enjoy your sunday everyone

mykidsmum · 25/06/2006 12:20

oh and btw I am not a member of iz's family, i have just returned from my holiday, hence me wading in at this point and not before, i have four kids all with urban angels, just in case anyone feels like accusing me aof anything untoward

hemart · 25/06/2006 12:20

I agree with hunkermunker.
fanny5 is just trying to pick a fight with izzyrubi and none of it makes sense, just leave her alone. You really ain't gonna find a fight here, everybody's been defending izzyrubi and they will keep doing so, just get out of it.

AllieBongo · 25/06/2006 12:28

we always get the odd fruit loop coming on here under various guises.. slating people, bigging up certain agencies (that they probably work for) fanjita, a lot of iz's daughters work has not been agency based.. she did something for pregnancy mag, another for a friend etc... There are lots of these threads, and have been for ages so read back, do some research and then comment something valid

mykidsmum · 25/06/2006 12:29

fanjita

fanny5 · 25/06/2006 12:35

ugh? I cannot get my head round why you lot have a mental block when it comes to the statemnets izzy has made about ck and the work she has 'had' with them. This is crap!
Clearly a handful of izzy cronies working together here and i dont blame you sticking up for friend. I'd do the same, but no point in ignoring the facts about what she has said cos they are all on this website in print. Ive read em and so can everyone else (or those that choose to and I dont suppose her buddies or she will of course!)

Just have a read through, then tell me she hasnt said ck gave her work? you wont be able to. Also if she is getting all that work through a friend then why is she joined loads of agencies to get work? and why then lie about the work she has had?

If my friend got me loads of work I would be only too pleased to tell the world that they got it for me and would NOT tell everyone that an agency got it.

hemart · 25/06/2006 12:44

I think fanny5 can't read

mumsnetmummy · 25/06/2006 12:56

hi all

listen, izzy has been on here for ages. She's been very helpful and is very knowledgable so there's no need to have a go at her!

Ive read through all the posts she's put on here and she did say she's had work with CK quite a few times to be fair so that is true and I'm sure she wouldn't lie so that is unfair to accuse her of that. What reason would she have for petty sake? I have to say that I am really intreeged now and think I will call CK tomorrow myself and ask if she has done anything. I'll post what they say to me on here after.

that will set the record straight once and for all and stop all the bickering! Dont worry izzy we're all on your side except for a few doubters trying to stir up trouble. Ignore them!

off to enjoy my sunday now (without a row and with my hard hat on!! lol)

zippitippitoes · 25/06/2006 13:05

the weirdly bitchy world of child modellers..I just can't begin to imagine what a big casting is like, do you all try and sabotage each others chances..

mykidsmum · 25/06/2006 13:10

have never encountered bitchiness in rl just on here, and lets face it wherever women congregate there will always be a few!! I have met some lovely people through modelling and my kids have made some friends, shame that this thread perpetuates the stereotype

YummyMummy21 · 25/06/2006 13:27

I agree mykdsum, until yesterday this thread was very friendly, ts rep has only been turned bitch by two people.
I went to a casting yesterday with DD there were 7 children and 12 adults and there was NO bitching at all.
We sat around for 15 mins waiting for the client to set-up, and were all chatting etc, and everyone wished us luck and I to them, when we left (we were secound in and secound out). I wouldnt call this bitchy!!

YummyMummy21 · 25/06/2006 13:55

That was supposed to say MYKIDSMUM- my keyboard is naff xxx

Hope everyone is well, andd hope that those of you going to Izzy's today will have fun )

mumsnetmummy · 25/06/2006 15:52

I agree it was fine before yesterday! It's not normally like that. To be fair glug did start it all off, but only by posting a comment because of what she was told by ck and there was nothing bitchy about that, she just said what she was told and asked a question. It was the other one, fanny, that piped up and started it all off the back of that who caused it all. I dont think glug was trying to cause a row but was just putting her opinion down. She didnt maintain a row after that and was quite nice really?

I think all these female hormones should slow down and concentrate them on better things that are more important

perfumelady · 25/06/2006 15:58

i really don't understand why izzy is being singled out, she along with a few of us have been on this thread for a long time, she like myself has done a lot of research into the modeling indusrty. although personally myself i don't think it is right to say that this is the best agency or this one is not because everyone has differant experiances with differant agencies so how can any one person say this is the best agency to go with, and to be honest no one has actually said that and i don't think anyone would. i think most people who ask for advice get answers from a few people not just izzy and i don't think this is a case of jesus and his followers. i would just hope that new people that come on do have the sence to listen to everyones views and not just one person. when looking for an agency, like izzy has said many times and i totally agree, go to a few differant agegcies like mot, urban angels, kids london,bruce and brown and if you got older children bizzykidz, they all have a proven track record of getting loads of work and surely that is what counts, don't be tempted to go with a new agency wait until that agency has proved it's self and that way you won't get repeats of the ik thing. i must admit we have been to many castings and jobs and there is always loads of differant agencies represented so personally i would say does it really matter which agency you are with as long as it is one of the well known ones, they all get the same brief so if there looking for a blonde haired blue eyed 6 year old, then if your agency is doing there job properly and if your child fits the breif then he or she will be put forward weither there on mot, bruce and brown or u/a. oh and i wouldn't go with an agency that charges over a £100 for photo's but that's my personal view.
