Hand models: $1,200 a day would you believe it??


Her hands have been featured caressing a Spanish-speaking sponge for a Dawn dish detergent commercial; and fondling a Hamilton Beach iron. And do you know that body models can make from $1,200 a day and up.

The only hand model who can profess a fan base is Kimbra Hickey, whose hands were on the cover of the hit vampire book Twilight. And in order to claim her rightful place in the adulation of Twilight readers, Hickey had to march into bookstores where people were lined up to buy the book and inform them that those were her hands on the cover!

To think they simply didn't recognize them by their distinct lack of veins, pores and flaws! Then, "before you know it, I had a line of people waiting for autographs... I feel lucky just to be a part of it."

Honestly? I feel lucky not to be a parts model.
