Press Release Summary = Vida Samadzai tells Lifeofamodel.com how her life continues to be a nightmare but vows not to quit.
Press Release Body = Vida Samadzai unofficially represented Afghanistan in an international beauty competition, wearing a red swimsuit and high heels, causing mass outrage in the Muslim world. She is the ongoing subject of scorn and potential prosecution and regularly suffers from death threats.
Vida gave an exclusive interview to model and fashion commentator Kelly England in which she told of her fears but vows 'no matter what, I will not quit.'
She is now working with fundraising organisations in the US where she has had to base herself to highlight Afghan women that are often impoverished and powerless.
The leading model website reports that despite the huge criticism that she continues to receive, she has been described by her countries women as a 'Brave Woman' and told that she 'Symbolizes Liberty'.
The rare interview reveals that Vida is in meetings with producers in both Bollywood and Hollywood who want to make movies about her highly controversial life.
The website Lifeofamodel.com has thousands of model members across the world that check in daily to report dangerous incidents to help to make the fashion world a safer place for young women and men. Vida was interviewed as she suffers ongoing extreme danger as a result of being a model and beauty queen.
Further dramatic features and interviews will highlight exploitation in the fashion industry as former model Kelly England launches her forthcoming book. She comments: ''Everyday we are helping more and more young people and their parents to understand that modelling can lead to human trafficking, exploitation, eating disorders and drug dependency. Unlike the smoke and mirrors that insist that modelling is a safe and fun career, we tell it like it is.''
