Oh wow. Well, I'm shocked. But I don't know what to think. I know he's handsome and all (even if he's not my type) but you know, model? Why? I think there're only two reasons a man want to be a model: a- to earn his own money taking advantange of a nice face, b- vanity. Seeing as he doesn't need money, is he that vain? :/

Well he has been seen at a number of events with Emma - like the Burberry show - so he's around the industry quite a bit. Maybe he liked what he saw or thought it would be his way of breaking into the industry and making good money like his sister.

Apparently, all the child Watson are at a model agency (even the younger girls). So we think maybe it's the dad who encouraged him to do so (so he become independant, ect...).
And yes, like Alex is a little in the industry because of Emma, maybe he has met some poeple or even Bailey. It feels seriously like it's string-pulling, but, well, maybe he is a good model.
Anyway, beeing a Burberry model without having done any cover mag or other jobs as a model is quite impossible, so this is an oportunity he wouldn't have if he wasn't Emma's brother - that's for sure. Even beeing accepted at Storm agency need some experience, a big book and at least a few cover. It's really a big agency.

Wow, it's amazing how much he looks like Emma! He has an interesting face. As for why he would go into modelling, why not? I think money is a strong factor as modelling usually pays well. Even though he comes from a wealthy family, why say no to more money, earned totally by himself? And as everyone said he's already seen the industry, so it's not difficult for him to be part of it.

I think he'll be a good model, he's got the feautures and the knowledge aswell based on these pictures.

Actually, it's an interesting job. I don't think there is good or bad job, stupid or intelligent job : it's just the way you do it that makes it interesting or not. I found a video of Alex Watson at the London premiere of HBP : www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5pP384AsJI&NR=1He looks a little over-confident, but, well, I saw worse.

Boy!
They're really milking E's connections. It is most ridiculous to hire somebody who has never modeled before.
I guess having a famous sister is enough.

i don't think its ridiculous. and stormmodels to scout people. you don't have to have a book, my friend at school (15) was scouted, and has now been signed to them, and she's done no previous modelling..

Haha that video was funny...the poor boy XD annoying girl
Yea I don't see a problem with it at all, people use connections. Everyone does. That's how people are getting jobs in this economy, they know people. Thats how I am going to have to get one...through networking and connections
What if its something he really likes doing? I say go for it and good job.

I am happy for him and I hope he's successful at it. I do think that he got the job based on connections but I'm okay with that.
