In 1988, at age 14, Kate Moss went on a family holiday to the Bahamas. Whilst waiting for her return flight to the UK at JFK Airport, New York City, she was discovered by Sarah Doukas, founder of Storm Model Agency. The rest, as they say, is history.

No, I'm saying their career starts were just lucky breaks - no talent, training or experience involved - just appearance .....

Sophia Loren was born as Sofia Scicolone at the Clinica Regina Margherita in Rome, Italy, on September 20, 1934. Her father Riccardo was married to another woman and refused to marry her mother Romilda, despite the fact that she was the mother of his two children (Sophia and her younger sister Maria Scicolone). Growing up in the slums of Pozzuoli during the second World War without any support from her father, she experienced much sadness in her childhood. Her life took an unexpected turn for the best when, at age 14, she entered into a beauty contest where she placed as one of the finalists. It was there that Sophia caught the attention of film producer Carlo Ponti, some 22 years her senior, whom she eventually married.

Difference being Kate Moss is allowed that excuse being a model and all. Whereas Amy is there just because she's there.

She WASN'T a model when she started in "the business" - she just got lucky .....

What you posted about Kate and Sophia Loren is completely irrelevant. Sophia Loren has a "lucky break" at age 14 and carved an actual career out of it, a full on business practically. Amy Childs appears to have no such ambitions to turn her lucky break into anything. She's content just chatting randomly on little TV shows on ITV2. Which is her right, but it lacks any kind of talent, aspiration and motivation.

If Sophia Loren had just stuck by standing there and saying "Oh, you find me attractive? oh great" and didn't put any effort or work in to form some kind of job she wouldn't have got very far and would have vanished long ago.

Obviously time will tell with Amy as she is still very young but so far she's just a dim airhead. (Or a very good actress who knows being thick will get her some quick cash and a few headlines, as my mum suspects, lol). That's the dilemma, she's either a lowest common denominator, brain dead doofus or a super intelligent, money making empire.
