"A model used to be a role model" ????

I have been a model.... I've never wanted to be another one... or imitate another one.... am I missing something.....

Didn't I see him sitting next to the model that was caught doing drugs??? I think it was Kate Moss???


What is he talking about.... someone help me out here.....

-----

role model

Main Entry:
role model
Function:
noun
Date:
1957

: a person whose behavior in a particular role is imitated by others

A model, she used to be a role model,
as in reffering to Chelsea Rodgers.
But then again, maybe your right.
Models used to be role models but they aint no more.
Shiiit I dunno, just gone got confused.

I think he's saying before fashion models, the word might have more referred to a role model in life, when applied to a person.

I think he just had his head up his ass when he wrote that lyric...

Kind of like some of the stuff in the title track for Chaos & Disorder, not quite as clear a comparison as a more reasonable person might craft.

what difference does it make? the song is crap anyway and sho ain't funky

Model used 2 be someone 2 look up 2. Now.....not so much.

Maybe he's thinking of the girls called "Super Models"..... even Linda Evangelista was quoted and admited to saying "I won't get out of bed for less than $10,000.00 a day". So much for role models.....

And you use to have to walk to school 30 miles in the snow
uphill
in both directions
And we didn't have ipods
We banged rocks together for fun...

Thanks granpa Nelson.

Ronald Mcdonald used to be a role model..LOL

Doesnt it sound like Shelby is yelling at Chelsea in that song?

"COME MOE! CHELLLLLSEH!!! COME MOE!" i'd be like.. "damn.. ok i'm comin!"

He was saying that Chelsea Rogers used to be a role model, but now she's just another one of his Ho's.

Why do I have the feeling that this song is full of double meaning? While we think that he's talking about the literal model, Chelsea, he's also weaving quite another different angle to the song with a different person. Because this song doesn't quite fit, or seemingly, because of the contradictions.


Idano, Maybe it's just me...

4EVER

I thought he was saying that the WORD "model" used to mean "role model;" now when you hear that word, it means a person who models clothing for a living...



As in, "this person is a model for you to follow."

Does that make any sense?

Well, then you're both missing the point because it also used to mean a model train set.

prince sings, 'a model. used 2 b a role model'..then he states 'i don't know'
well how we supposed 2 know!
i think he means she was a role model to other models, but it's confused people cuz she was unknown till association with p..not like she was a super model or anything

Who gives a damn, really?

The song is boring & pedestrian. Up against Cindy C, especially.
