The British have been more up for it than the Americans were, particularly with respect to nudity in the show.

I was fooling around one day and looking at Yahoo! Jobs.

I typed in "photo" and, of course, what comes up is "One hour photo lab" or "Be a photographer in Disneyland" or jobs that no one really wants as a photographer. I saw, by chance, this ad that said, "Wanted: Photographer for premieres and Hollywood events" and I thought, "This can not be real. This is ridiculous. No one advertizes this!" I was really suspect about it.

I accept that appearance is a big thing in this business.
