If brands could bottle the rarefied style she naturally possesses they would\u2013and they have tried. If so before, probably more now: her band The Paranoyds just released their first music video for the song \u201cGirlfriend Degree\u201d off their upcoming (in September) album \u201cCarnage Bargain.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/theparanoyds.bandcamp.com\">The Paranoyds<\/a>, a thing since 2015, in total is Laila Hashemi, Lexi Funston and David Ruiz alongside Lindes. \u201cGirlfriend Degree\u201d is just a taste of things to come says Staz, \u201cThe Paranoyds are graduating to real muscianhood this September 13th with our full-length debut via Suicide Squeeze! There will be a music video or two before that and then the rest is tour history.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><center> <\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/By5gVwsBytG\/\" data-instgrm-version=\"12\" style=\" background:#FFF;

Though the experienced model is a veteran on sets, a production this collaborative and personal was a significant experience. \u201cIt\u2019s very exciting and slightly scary when you see something actually coming to life. You spit ideas back and forth with the director and get excited and then you panic and you&#8217;re like, \u201cWait does this even make sense? And now were involving all these people?\u201d Ambar is seriously such an inspiration, She is highly ambitious, but actually nails it and gets the work done. I am still blown away by the Barbie puppetry each time I watch the video. Anyways, watching everybody come together and believe and play along with this concept was really such a heart swelling moment. It\u2019s like the imaginary concepts you come up with on play dates as a kid but now we&#8217;re adults and money is involved [laughs].\u201d As for what she brought to this set from her training in fashion: \u201cThe best thing I got out of the fashion industry was learning respect for every person&#8217;s job from assistants to lighting et cetera. Most people are on their feet all day every day, getting yelled at, being bullied by somebody nasty, even holding up heavy objects above their heads for hours. I don\u2019t feel above anybody, I even feel guilt sometimes, and this is a lesson that has spread outside of the fashion industry and touches all aspects of life.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Watch the video for &#8220;Girlfriend Degree&#8221; below. You can preorder the album now. <\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/d-5T4KT6QTM\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><!--pp-thumb-start--><!--PictPress found no dir \/2019\/06\/121696--><!--pp-thumb-end--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A Barbie-dolled-out manifesto marks the bands first off their upcoming record <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":443,"featured_media":121699,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10414,2],"tags":[10632],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121696"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/443"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=121696"}],"version-history":[{"count":19,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121696\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":121798,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/121696\/revisions\/121798"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/121699"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=121696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=121696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/oftheminute\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=121696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
