It’s a question that might pop into your head when you first hear the name Peter Frampton: “Does he have a twin brother?” While the legendary musician Peter Frampton might be who first comes to mind, we’re diving into the world of a different Peter Frampton today – a successful model making waves in the fashion industry. And no, to clear things up right away, there’s no readily available information suggesting this Peter Frampton has a twin brother.
But that doesn’t make his story any less interesting. In fact, getting to know Peter Frampton the model reveals a fascinating glimpse into the often-unseen world of male modeling, filled with its own unique set of challenges, aspirations, and yes, even awkward moments. Let’s delve into an exclusive peek behind the scenes with Peter and his fellow models, Roger and Joel, to uncover what life is really like beyond the glossy magazine covers.
Awkward Photoshoots and Runway Mishaps
Even for seasoned professionals, photoshoots aren’t always glamorous. Peter candidly recalls a casting experience that veered into the bizarre: “It was for a casting, they were asking me to act like I had wings and run around with a girl, really happy. They took it ten times at least because I kept messing up.” This anecdote highlights the often-unpredictable nature of modeling, where creativity can sometimes translate into slightly absurd requests. Despite his efforts, Peter humorously admits, “I didn’t get the job; they didn’t reply to me. It wasn’t my thing anyway!”
Roger shares his own memorable awkward moment, right at the beginning of his career: “I remember one of my first photoshoots, I had to shoot in the projects, in these big buildings in a dodgy neighborhood. It was an underwear shoot when I was 19.” The unexpected location and the public attention created a trial by fire. “We pulled up in the bus and I was like ‘Really?’ I remember all these kids shouting things like ‘Hey, sexy!’ and I was like ‘If I can do this, I can do anything’,” Roger laughs, showcasing the resilience required to navigate the industry.
Joel, on the other hand, approaches these situations with a different mindset. “I come with an open mind so I never get awkward moments; I’m so relaxed, any awkwardness will fizzle out quickly. I know this sounds big headed, but I don’t do awkward.” His confidence and laid-back attitude serve as a valuable tool in an industry that can often be demanding and uncomfortable.
Vices and Cheat Days: The Reality of Model Lifestyle
Maintaining a physique that meets industry standards requires discipline, but even models have their indulgences. When asked about vices, Peter is refreshingly honest: “All of the above. I eat junk food, I smoke. I don’t drink alcohol that much these days, compared to Roger.”
Roger elaborates on his balanced approach: “I probably have a couple of bottles of wine every weekend, and a few packs of donuts. I love donuts, I could eat like twelve in one go.” He emphasizes the importance of routine and moderation. “I train six days of the week, after 5 o’clock like clockwork. Then Sunday: donuts, wine, chocolates, anything goes — it’s like a cheat day. Then I’ll beat myself up for a couple days.” This glimpse into their lives reveals that even those in the spotlight grapple with the same temptations as everyone else, just with a structured approach to balance.
Accents and International Appeal
The models also shared their thoughts on American accents, highlighting the global nature of their profession and the diverse cultures they encounter.
Joel expresses his appreciation: “I love it, I think it’s hilarious! I especially love deep Southern accents or a crisp New York accent.”
Roger finds them charming: “I think they’re really cute! There’s nothing wrong with a cheerleader or two. It’s very…understandable.” He playfully touches upon the common perception of British accents in America, “I like when I come over there and everyone thinks I’m from the Royal family, and they’ll tell me I’ve got an accent. I’m like ‘No, no — I don’t have the accent.’ And then I pick up a little every time I’m in New York, I’m like ‘Eeeyy!'”
Future Aspirations and Side Projects
Beyond modeling, each of these individuals is driven and multi-faceted, pursuing various passions and career goals.
Peter expresses his desire for travel within his modeling career: “I want to start traveling, because I haven’t traveled much, modeling-wise. I would love to come to America, I’ve never been.” He also reveals a passion for dance: “I do a lot of dancing as well, to house music. It’s called shuffling. I’ve been doing that for a year or so. There are a bunch of videos of me dancing on my Instagram. I would like to combine my dancing with my modeling in some crazy way.”
Roger has channeled his fitness expertise into a unique training method: “I started building up a specific style of training called the ‘Frampton Method’ in 2011. It’s basically a cross between gymnastics and yoga, just using your body weight, and I’m about to launch a YouTube channel about it.” He explains the origins of his method, linking it to the demands of the modeling industry: “It started because I was trying to figure out what is the best size to be for men in the modeling industry, what size would get you the most work — 38″ chest, 32″ waist — so I became that size and used certain exercises and movements to stay that size. Peter used the same method and that’s how we got our muscles.”
Joel, with his entrepreneurial spirit, is focused on events and expanding his horizons in media: “I’m still working on events. I scaled it back a little, but when I’m back in London, I want to grow that, I love that job. I want to continue modeling and traveling the world. I’d also like to think about some presenting. I’ve got a lot of ideas. I’m crazy about sports, so maybe I could interview sports stars, something unscripted, where you get an idea of the person’s life.” He even envisions a unique sports interview format: “I’d go around to every soccer club and give the fans a grassroots feel for what goes on, but not in a stuffy way — in a Frampton way, in a way that grabs people’s attention…” He jokingly concludes with a touch of humor, protecting his innovative ideas: “If someone takes this idea, I’m going to sue.”
