Woman finds success as male model [View all]

ELLIOTT Sailors was a blond bombshell with the prestigious Ford modeling agency and had curves that graced Bacardi billboards around the world.

But when jobs dried up in an industry that considers 25 middle-aged, Sailors, 31, chopped off her blonde locks and reinvented herself - as a male model.

...

Sailors dresses like a man on most days because it's easier than wearing makeup or heels.

And she says no one opens the door for her anymore:

"When I'm in an elevator, I notice that they let all of the girls go first - like, the real girls."
