After a 10-year-long modelling career<\/a>, the British blonde known for her iconic pixie cut, porcelain skin and enviable legs has quit life as a model!<\/p>\n

Sad as we are to announce it, Agyness Deyn has officially announced her retirement from modelling so that she can pursue a full-time acting career.
\n
\nThe newlywed told The Independent<\/a>: “I suppose I have stopped modelling officially. I’ve not done any for a good long while now. I think it was about four years ago when my feelings were changing towards the industry. I didn’t hate it, but I was yearning to do something different. I was on a gradient. It was a gradual thing.”<\/p>\n

The 29-year-old went on to explain that her passion for acting has evolved from modelling: “I didn’t really know what I wanted to do when I was a girl but it was clear that something was stewing. I was very sporty \u2013 I swam competitively \u2013 and I loved music, the arts, having a creative outlet. And then I got spotted [by a modelling agency], and I’ve had this great chunk of time \u2013 10 years \u2013 to find out what I really wanted to do, which is to act.”<\/p>\n

Still, it’s clear Aggy hasn’t forgotten the opportunities modelling has provided for her: “I enjoyed modelling Oh god, I loved it. Being 18 years old, from Manchester, and suddenly having this new world to explore \u2013 being able to travel, meet all these different people, and immerse myself in all these different cultures \u2013 was just so much fun.”<\/p>\n

While the team at Talent Management will miss blogging about her latest modelling jobs, with some pretty impressive acting roles already under her belt, we can understand the move.<\/p>\n

The blonde siren played the role of\u00a0a 1930s courtesan in Mean to Me, Aphrodite in Clash of the Titans, and has been cast in a film adaptation of the 1932 Scottish novel Sunset Song, by Lewis Grassic Gibbon.<\/p>\n

Directed by Terence Davies, the now ex-model will play the film\u2019s female protagonist, a resilient heroine named Chris Guthrie, and will be acting alongside Peter Mullan, who caught the attention of Talent Management earlier in the year with his role in War Horse.<\/p>\n

Aggy is also starring in Danish crime film Pusher, out in the cinemas right now, in which she plays a rather risqu\u00e9 role as a heroin-addicted stripper.<\/p>\n

The team here at the agency love to see a model venture into another area of the entertainment industry so successfully, and with plans already made to see Pusher, we’ll just have to get used to seeing her on the big screen instead of in Vogue!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
