Thick Skin vs. Thin Skin

Model Melyssa Ford did a rather interesting alter ego photo shoot with photographer Derek Blanks. Using the concept “thick skin vs thin skin”, Ford tried to capture the alarmingly true aspect of todays entertainment industry.

“You need “thick skin” to deal with the entertainment industry. All of us know what it feels like to have to “turn the other cheek” or “be the bigger person” or “turn a blind eye and ear to their critics and the nay-sayers”… I OVER-stand this concept, hence my visual interpretation of the reality: that we all hurt and are not immune to the pain caused by harsh judgment.” –Melyssa Ford via Global Grind Blog
