Just got back - this was one of those WTF? casting calls. I did not do the audition and walked out, placing an unpleasant call to my agent to pass on the message as he saw fit to Lips Magazine...
I arrived at the location of the Lips Magazine casting and the usual assortment of pretty boys were about the area - easy way to find the spot really.
I went into the office and spoke Thai to the guard on duty (receptionist?), which startled him - obviously I am a little different to the obnoxious model types, anyway he takes me in and introduces me to the Ladyboy in charge of the Lips Magazine casting (a ladyboy is a transvestite particular to Thailand).
She picks up a G-string bikini (thong bikini) that is on the table - it has a matching bikini top or boob tube. Hmmmm.... womens swimwear.
"No, I do not do G-string - well not for the pay on offer anyway."
Then it strikes me - the models are all being told to get into the same G-string.
"I AM NOT PUTTING THAT ON"
Over the top of my underwear OK, but not by itself (I am wearing Calvin Klein lycra shorts today - unfortunately bleached randomly in places by the cheap washing powder I bought one time).
Ladyboy (Katoey) asks to see my underwear - I show her - she is not impressed with the random bleaching.
I then take my singlet off and say do you want a wrestler (which is what the casting called for), with muscle, Pohm yai muk (I am very big) or do you want little boys?
I then pull out my old 7 Foot Thunder wrestling outfit and explain I was the Wrestling Champion of Australia.
She then got me to do some flexing and to show the muscles in my back, I heard her gasp in surprise as I spread my lats then pulled all the muscles back and contracted them - obviously she has never seen a bodybuilder before.
She said someone from Lips Magazine would call me if they needed me tomorrow, if I wore small tight shorts under the G-string would that be OK?
I agreed to this.
When I left I called my agent and told him in no uncertain terms that I did not do the casting because wearing everyone else's underwear was disgusting - make sure you tell Lips Magazine them that I am disgusted. (Just goes to show how stupid most models are though).
So maybe in a couple of weeks you'll get some nice artistic photos (minus my bare ass) scanned from Lips Magazine, we'll just have to wait and see if that gasp of surprise meant I was good for the job, or if (s)he just wanted me....
JUST GOT A CALL BACK - MY "ARROGANCE" PAID OFF AGAIN - I GOT THE LIPS MAGAZINE PHOTO SHOOT
