“No doubt these girls are drop-dead gorgeous, this is what our industry considers sporty, voluptuous, full body and Victoria Secret models used to be much fuller,” Brinkley said. “In my opinion, I mean they’re gorgeous, yes, but they’re thin. Our industry is getting sort of thinner and thinner.”

Most shocking was Brinkley’s belief she’d never be a successful model nowadays due to current standards. “If I tried to be a model today, there’s no way. I would never make it in the industry,” she said.

Brinkley recently showed her off her age-defying body on Instagram and if she truly believes the modeling industry of today would shun her perfectly toned physique it doesn’t say much for the thin-obsessed business.
