Romee Strijd angry after Victoria's Secret show rejection: 'The story is not true'
Model Romee Strijd is speaking out against her agency after being notified late that she was excluded from the upcoming Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. She expressed that the lack of honesty regarding the rejection caused her significant mental distress, leading her to decide against future collaborations with the brand.
Dutch model Romee Strijd has expressed significant frustration regarding her recent exclusion from the Victoria's Secret Fashion Show. The 31-year-old Zoetermeer native, who previously served as a Victoria's Secret Angel, revealed that while she accepts the nature of rejection in the modeling industry, she feels mistreated by her agency's lack of transparency. Strijd stated that she was only informed of the decision this week, despite it having been made weeks prior. This delay caused her considerable mental stress after she had invested significant energy and preparation into getting in top form for the event.
Strijd indicated that she likely will not participate in future Victoria's Secret castings, citing a negative experience with the process and a desire to preserve her previous positive memories with the brand. She first debuted for the company in 2014 and later became an official Angel. The upcoming show, which features various high-profile models and musical performers, is scheduled to take place in Los Angeles.
