Sam Webb kicked off his career with a humorous bout of jealousy and the rest is history. From Birmingham to a home with London premier agency Select, Sam had some doubts about this mysterious field called modeling, but with a great set of genes and an endless charisma, the path to success came easy.

Where did you grow up?

Sam Webb: In sunny Birmingham in England!

How were you discovered?

Sam Webb: Discovered in Birmingham in my hometown when Dounia my now agent stopped me with my girlfriend! My ex thought she was hitting on me! I had never been to London or even knew that men modeled! Ha!

When did you start modeling?

Sam Webb: When Select invited me to London! Didn’t want to do it! But then I thought I’ll give it a try and see London!

What were you doing before modeling?

Sam Webb: I was at university and working part-time on a building site, digging holes! But I was training to be a boxer like my dad!

What was your first major gig?

Sam Webb: I suppose it was the ss06 Dolce show! I had never done runway before! I was super embarrassed!
