What body part of yours attracts the most attention? Smile
What would you like people to be attracted to? My ambition
What do you consider a great night on the town? A nice dinner, and a walk on the lake front or beach with someone special
Sleep or sex? I would have normally said sex.. but sleep since I am so busy.
Tell us a funny, but dirty joke.
No dirty joke to share.
The person I would most like to meet
Oprah Winfrey
Can you cook? If so, what’s your signature dish? Yes, I have been told that my spaghetti was good. Don’t really have a signature dish.
What were you doing five minutes before this interview? Working
What is the most important issue in the world today and why?
One of the important issues is Black on Black crime. I feel that this is important because we are losing a lot of our young men to non sense. And our younger generations have no one to look up to in their homes besides the television network that condone violence, gang banging, drugs and hustling as a way of life. I feel that we need more male role models and more father’s that are willing and able to step up to the plate and be a responsible person. So that many of our young men don’t have to revert to negative images portrayed throughout the media for a false representation of how a man is suppose to conduct themselves. I think if we had more stand up men then we would not have so many of our youth picking up a gun in an effort to defend their “ manhood” and then end up in jail with another life that has been lost. And another that is dead.
How old were you when you had your first kiss and paint us the picture?
It was towards the end of the 7th grade school year. My friends told me that a guy in our class liked me, he would walk me home from school, and came to visit me during the summer, one day he came by to visit like he normally would, but before he left the kissed me. We dated on and off until we were in high school.
When did you know you could be a model? When I went into a modeling agency and they told me that I can do well in this industry.
If someone wanted to buy you a drink, what would you order?
Margarita or Cranberry and Vodka
If you were president what would you change?
The way the system is designed to cater to people who don’t want to do anything for themselves. And actually help the people that are. I don’t think you should be penalized for wanted to do more for yourself. And I don’t think you should be rewarded for doing nothing. So I would change the welfare system. And I would do something more to change the homeless crisis. And would do more help the battered women and children instead of sticking them in the system and barely wishing them good luck.
A persons behavior or action that will put on my short list.
Yelling at me, Jealousy
Lights on or lights off?
What is the biggest misconception about you?
If you just judged me without getting to know me, you might miss the fact that I am sensitive, and very silly.
Tell us something your parents don’t know about you.
My mom knows pretty much everything about me. My father doesn’t know anything… he was not an active person in my life
What is the most creative thing a guy has said or done to approach you?
He came down to my department everyday to wave to me, and would surprise me with little gifts. When he finally felt comfortable enough he came in with long stem roses and asked if we could go out.
If money was not an issue what would you be doing?
On the beaches of Hawaii or Bahamas with my Mai Tai relaxing in the sun.
What’s your fetish?
Good looking Chocolate brown, Bald headed Men ---hmmm
