Jodie Gasson used to talk about it a lot in her website's forum, about how glamour modeling, despite the name, doesn't pay much- and mind you, that was way before the OF era. Many who wanted to make a career of GM had to take a lot of work just to make it worth while, which is why you saw even back then a lot of over-exposure of some models. Jodie also did A LOT of work before she retired, and I remember in one of her threads she said the many photographers back then tried to make you do more in shoots for less money- something many other models also remarked- which is why, in the long run, GM wasn't worth it for them, money wise, and many have retired.
Then the lad-mags died out and all that remained for awhile were only websites like SocialGlamour, OnlyAllsites, HayleysSecrets, etc., and then the OF era started which pretty much dealt a crippling blow to what is already a very struggling industry. Sites like MCG and the GIRLManagement network of sites are pretty much keeping the industry alive, but even MCG had to make a shift into more frontal-nudity shoots and videos (Poppy, Georgie, etc., but also notice that slowly but surely, Danielle Sellers is also shifting to a much more risqué kind of shoots), and I think, with the exception of Melissa Debling, every model today has an OF- where, usually, the bulk of their income comes from.
Joey did quit right about the time MCG started to shift to more frontal-nudity content, so it doesn't come as a surprise- if that was indeed the reason. Coupled with the fact the GM doesn't pay enough and her OF is a better source in come- who could blame her? Also, don't forget she's one of the last pillars of the Lad-Mag era, so it perfect sense she (and others like her, like Lucy Pinder, Stacey Poole, Melissa D, etc.) don't want to shift to frontal-nudity content.
Personally- I'm glad they don't. If it's not done tastefully (much like in the old days of PB and its CyberClub era) and it's just close-ups of orifices (like Hegre-Art, for example), than, to me, there's really no point.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk
