This modelling agency in London specializes in providing unattractive people for commercial work. Just in case there is confusion about their specialty, the place calls itself the Ugly Modelling Agency.

Their A-list includes some guy with more piercings than anybody else in the world, a dude who can pop his eyes out on demand, and trolls and mutants you don’t even want to know about.

“Sorry, Tiffany, but your portfolio just doesn’t make you look quite hideous enough. Go get yourself some more facial tattoos and a bit more tooth decay, and come see us again.”
