Bill Cosby’s deposition in a 2005 sexual assault lawsuit against him, recently unsealed over Cosby’s objections, reveals the comedian made arrangements with a New York modeling agency back in the ‘80s to set up dinners in his dressing room with young, struggling models from outside New York.

For Fashion Week, Vogue took Nicki Minaj backstage to teach Alexander Wang models the "Anaconda" dance. The footage proves once and for all that Kate Upton is the exception, not the rule. Models can't twerk.

Jeremy Meeks, a ruggedly handsome former gangbanger, made the internet swoon with his mugshot after he was arrested for weapons possession last month. Everyone immediately made the same joke: "He should be a model. Not a criminal."

Good news for sleazeball celebrity photographer Terry Richardson: He didn't do at least one of the sketchy, sexually harassing things he's been accused of. A Facebook message offering a model a high-profile shoot in exchange for sex actually originated from a fake account.

What follows is a minute-by-minute timeline documenting the mental and physical collapse of 20 fashion models.

The most surprising aspect of Forbes' list of the world's highest paid models is that the names here don't make more money. Considering that DJ Pauly D earned $13 million within the very same time frame, the $7.2 million second-highest-grossing figure Miranda Kerr brought in seems low. Also, no Kate Upton.

It's impossible to know for sure exactly what white substance burst forth from supermodel Cara Delevingne's pocketbook on Saturday, as she merrily searched for her keys in front of her London home.

I'm sure your grandfather (Pop) is very cool, what with him being your grandfather and all. I have some unfortunate news for you, though: your grandfather (Pop) is simply just not as cool as 72-year-old Liu Xianping, a Chinese grandfather who models for his granddaughter's online clothing store.

Frank Ocean has a friend who goes by the name Willy Cartier (real name: Willy Leservot). According to this Tumblr, he is an "It hot boy" and a "a model with French, Vietnamese and Senegalese background." His androgynous beauty is what Andrej Pejić's androgynous beauty is to actual women. Close, but too femme for a cigar.

Anyone concerned that the upcoming Olympics would focus too much on sports and not enough on haute couture fashion can breathe a sigh of relief – the roster of performers for the closing ceremony was revealed Monday, and Kate Moss is prominently featured.

Retailer H&M is deeply sorry it attempted to sell swimwear using images of a sexy, tanned Victoria's Secret fashion model, the AFP reports.
