Why don't runway models smile?

Whenever I see a clip from a fashion show on tv, none of the girls smile. They all have this serious blank look, like they're not allowed to move the muscles in their face. It's almost disturbing and very distracting from the clothing that they're trying to show off. What's the deal? :confused:

They're angry 'cause their pimps didn't give them crack before the show.

If they smile, then they will get happy and want to eat some cake. Then they'll be out of a job.

I was about to say "because they're hungry" but that explanation has already been said.

because most designers do not want the models personailties showing through. they are just there to show off the clothes.
Plus, i guess they think its more sexy and intriguing that way.
some desingers (anna sui) want the models to laugh and look at the cameras etc.

They want them to look intimidating, not happy. And when you're a fvcking walking coatrack, who cares if you're happy!

(Actually, very few are even close to pretty or even sexy, IMHO.)
