EXCLUSIVE: Model Sues Abercrombie & Fitch -- Claims Masturbation Photo Shoot Was Its Fault

A dude who worked at an Abercrombie & Fitch store claims the company referred him to a modeling agent who got him to strip down and masturbate in order to take "relaxed" photos -- this according to a new lawsuit obtained by TMZ.Benjamine Bowers alleges in the suit he worked at an A & F store last year, when the company's casting director referred him to a modelling agent named Brian Hilburn. According to the complaint, Hilburn got Benjamine to fly to Jackson, Mississippi for a photo shoot.The suit claims during the June 17, 2011 shoot, Hilburn convinced Benjamine that he needed to display a relaxed look for his modeling portfolio, and the best way of achieving that look was to masturbate in front of the camera, so the photog could capture his expression immediately after orgasm. And for good measure, Hilburn allegedly told him the drill was to do the whole thing in the buff.Benjamine says he was a trooper and took matters into his own hands during the shoot. But Ben says after he masturbated, Hilburn exposed himself and commented on the relative size of their penises.Benjamine feels used and believes the photos were never intended to help his career ... but just to give Hilburn a cheap thrill. Benjamine is suing A & F and Hilburn for $1 million.We contacted Hilburn ... He had no comment.

Dumb aint even the word!

First off, I think male models are often taken advantage of both financially and sexually. With that being said, this guy was either new to the fashion industry or just accustomed to whipping out his peen in front of strangers. The clues that this was not kosher were all there.

A reputable modeling agency in Jackson, MI? Come on.

Masturbating to acheive a facial expression? Hello? Anybody home?

Masturbating while butt ass nekid in front of a camera with some horny dude watching? Your career is over!

I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

Many have and still do. Remember the woman who sued McDonalds because her coffee was hot? WTF? When was the last time you ordered a coffee and didn't expect it to be hot? Don't say ice coffee either. That bitch new exactly what she ordered and that it would be hot, but she found a way to make herself rich seeing as no business ever had to put "caution, hot beverage" on a paper cup before.

When my niece and nephews were little, I'd do this thing where I'd put my hand on top of their head and ask,

What's this?

I don't know.

It's a brain sucker. What's it doing?

I don't know.

Starving.

Them --> mad Me --> lol

We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves.

I'll be honest, when I first read this, that's what I was also thinking! lol But I doubt Andy would get him to skrip completely, just be black and have a big dick and then let him suck it would be more Andy's style. wink
