Ratner’s poster girl is unhappy

Ratner postergirl tells all:

Meer said she spent five hours being photographed. “It was fun, and it was a pretty good deal because I’m an actress and they offered to let me use the photos, too,” she said. She had virtually forgotten about that day — until the phone rang last week.

“Why the hell are you doing posing for Bruce Ratner?!” a friend asked.

Huh?
...
“I admit I have no one to blame but myself,” she said. “I signed the release. I got my $100 [for the shoot]. But I’m still mad at Ratner.”

Meer called her experience “the seedy underbelly of Ratner’s marketing campaign.”

“What, he couldn’t find actual people to smile for his cameras? He needed to buy stock images of people having fun?”
