Top Model Ashton Gray Launches Live Video Chat Site
Montreal (PRWEB) May 26, 2004 -– A busy 12 months for Canuck model Ashton Gray culminated recently with her new venture: www.ashtongrayslivemodels.com, a web site featuring Gray and other models in a live video chat environment.
In the year before that, Gray modelled on runways and before cameras from Vancouver down to Los Angeles, stopping along the way to appear at Larry Flynt and Jenna Jameson autograph signings, and pose for high profile photographers Suze Randall and Mike Bisco. She finally appeared in the January 2004 issue of Hustler, and has been offered a pictorial in Penthouse magazine.
Her new site is powered on LiveCamNetwork 1.9, the software created last year by 2much Internet Services. “Now they’ve offered me the role of being their spokesmodel, promoting their software,” she says, not quite breathless.
Born on Valentine’s day, 24-year old Gray seems out to have fun, but with the apparent ability to turn it into business. She started walking the fashion runways for Canadian Lingerie giant La Vie En Rose when she was 19, but her career went into over drive (“The real fun started,” she says) when she went on vacation. “It just ended up as a 2 year stint in Australia as a bikini model, runway model and even exotic dancer. That was fun. I just can’t seem to get away from people with cameras!”
Gray saw the internet as a way to advance her career, but ran into the wrong people. “It was a bad
experience with a modeling agency that created sites on the side,” Gray said. “He ripped me off.”
She looked into simple picture galleries or standard “celebrity” sites, but found the lack of involvement uninspiring. When she heard of broadband video streaming technology, she said, “I interviewed and saw demonstrations from 6 different companies. Each was worse than the one before. Lousy video, no audio and questionable experience. And remember, I just got out of a bad situation with a website. But 2Much’s software blew me away. They've been around since the beginning and have a great reputation.”
Gray says she’s considering the spokesperson job.
The model’s experiences with that LA model agency put her in contact with many other Top Model types, she said. “Which is what inspired the idea behind ashtongrayslivemodels.com. I wasn’t the only one who got burned by that agency. So we’re going to get together and feature all actual working photo models chatting online.”
Was the Hustler pictorial her farewell to the photo-model business? “Absolutely not! I’ll still be modelling, especially photography. I’m always traveling throughout the states and Canada for modeling work. It’s good for the site. It’s good content,” Gray said.
