Work in entertainment long enough, and you’re bound to find a self-proclaimed “model” who only has an Instagram page and no headshots.
That’s not the case for these 13 women who turned thirst trapping into businesses while you were double-tapping their pictures.

Karrueche Tran
What exactly does Karrueche do for a living? She’s officially signed with Wilhelmina Models, she’s presumably getting bread for those hosting and live appearance gigs, and it looks like she’ll be in a struggle move or two as well. Can’t knock the hustle.
Buffie “The Body” Carruth
While her video career began by her dude posting booty flicks online without her permission, Buffie quickly moved from video vixen to a certified personal trainer.
Amber Rose
Say what you will about her, but Amber Rose’s job description has gone from stripper, to video vixen, to author and social activists. If that’s not hustling, what is?
Draya Michele
Like many of the women on this list, Draya’s run began with a pair of Lucite heels, a brass pole, and some glitter lotion. She’s since graduated to reality television and designing her own line of bikinis.
Kim Kardashian
Like Kanye West said, “My girl a superstar all from a home movie.”
Iggy Azalea
Before she was regularly putting her foot in her mouth and allegedly caking off of ghostwritten raps, Iggy Azalea was uploading shock raps like “PU$$Y” to YouTube with accompanying, thirst-worthy visuals.
Julieanna “YesJulz” Goddard
The self-proclaimed “Director of Vibes” in Miami gets paid to party and collect checks from companies like T-Mobile and Sprite. She keeps Snapchat lit too.
Rosa Acosta
By all accounts, Rosa Acosta was dancing before she turned heads in multiple Hip Hop videos. But anyone who thinks they’re going to get a body like hers through “personal training” and not visiting a plastic surgeon might need a reality check.
Angela Simmons
Rev. Run’s baby girl lists her occupations as fashion designer and philanthropist. That’s what’s commonly referred to as being born on third base and taking credit for hitting a triple.
Erica Mena
When she’s not promoting those tea cleanses you see every vixen with any followers claiming to use, the woman who almost became Mrs. Shad Moss is plugging the HER fashion line.

Blac Chyna
At worst, Blac Chyna still makes the occasional paid, clothed appearance at a strip club near you. At best, she’s getting raunchy video looks and operating an eyelash bar (that’s a thing?) in California’s San Fernando Valley.
Nakeitha “PreMadonna” Felder
Is there a smarter hustle than turning the public’s Insta-thirst of famous, sexy women into checks? Probably not. PreMadonna did just that, and she’s watching her profits soar each time someone endorses one of her waist training corsets.
