How long have you been modeling? Off and on for 5 years

What was your first photo shoot like? EMBARRASSING! OMG-ness... all I will say is we drove out to the Boonies somewhere by Normal, IL...to a farm...I had on a blonde wig...and the animals were loose. PS those chickens go CRAZY in that pen when they see them flashing lights...AND they are NOT afraid of people...walking up to me plucking my feet and stuff..DISRESPECTFUL! LOL

Describe your worst photo shoot. The first photo shoot in bikinis for the Model Me Tv's New Year's Top Model Competition... #that is all.

Describe your best photo shoot. When I won the AJ Wright Model Search for the River Grove, IL store! It was sooo a glimpse into my future. I say it was prophetic Dean! They picked me up in a Lincoln town car... dropped me off at the studio... provided breakfast (bagels, juice)... played great music... loved my pictures.. did awesome hair and makeup(switched it up throughout)... provided lunch... were so funny... picked me up in a stretch limo... dropped me off at my modeling class... picked me back up in the town car... dropped me off at home...let me keep the clothes... gave me a gift card to go buy some more... and paid me! I felt so on top that day.. oh yes!



What body part of yours attracts the most attention? legs

What would you like people to be attracted to? pretty smooth skin/face 

What do you consider a great night on the town? Pretty hair, pretty nails, pretty clothes, pretty shoes, pretty makeup, pretty accessories, me and my pretty girls, being chauffeured around in pretty cars to do our pretty girl things~! Like: shop, dinner, broadway, dance...anything downtown really!

Sleep or sex?  Right now: sleep. I'm opposed to premarital sex...doesn't mean I'm a virgin...but I fell so deep in love with Jesus I can't just purposefully do certain stuff anymore. In the future: It'll probably be a tie! Or better yet sex. Yes, sex that puts me to bed..bed...bed...my boo gon put me to bed...bed...bed! *sing J Holiday*

Tell us a funny, but dirty joke.

The person I would most like to meet? Nelson Mandela. I really pray I get to meet and have great conversations with him before he leaves this earth. 

Can you cook? If so, what’s your signature dish?  Actually, I can. People really like my pumpkin pie...it is delicious though. lol! I don't have a fav non-baking dish yet.

What were you doing five minutes before this interview?  Talking to Uncle Mike about these tickets to the grand finale of Model Me Tv's New Year's Top Model Competition. It's at Victor Hotel 1/9/11 people..tickets are only $9! You've got my information above..contact me so you can come out before we reach capacity...!

What is the most important issue in the world today and why? Lost souls...no one should have to spend eternity in damnation...unless they chose to.

How old were you when you had your first kiss and paint us the picture? Ummm...idk but I was in the 5th or 6th grade...I think. lol! I just remember I was still at Amelia Earhart and back then it only went up to 6th grade. We were at my then best friend Tecoya's house. It was me, her, and a couple of friends. This guy and I liked each other and Tecoya knew it. We were all in the basement playing and then somebody called us to come up. So we were about to...then he and I decided this was the perfect opportunity to kiss (peck..I wasn't frenching yet) and I was sooo nervous. I said let's do a countdown and we did...then he closed his eyes and puckered his lips....and I ran upstairs away from him...with no kiss. I was too scared..lol! So I guess that's my first attempt to kiss..lol! *what? I was a tomboy all throughout my childhood. Boys were only cool as friends...all the others had cooties and kissing was nasty.*

When did you know you could be a model?  When I was the tallest girl in my classes...and then Tawana Brown started telling me all the time that I should do it.

If someone wanted to buy you a drink, what would you order? I don't like the taste of alcohol so it would be a semi-sweet red wine, some sweet champagne, or some UBER fruity gurlie drink. Maybe a 'kiss on the lips' or 'sex on the beach'. Shoot...I might even order an 'easy living' ..no alcohol lol!

If you were president what would you change?

Lights on or lights off?  Lights off...Go green!

What is the biggest misconception about you?  Idk

Tell us something your parents don’t know about you. My Mama knows everything..lol! That's my girl now..

What is the most creative thing a guy has said or done to approach you? One day last year on Michigan Ave. I was having a late lunch/early dinner with my boss. I left the restaurant to head home and  this gentlemen ran out after me...chased me ( I wasn't running but he had to catch up to where I was)... told me he had been watching me the whole time, I'm so beautiful, told me where he worked at, asked for my number and said he's not trying to sound creepy but he would really like to get to know me. I thought that was so cute~!

If money was not an issue what would you be doing? My scholarship, my homeless shelter, and other philanthropy. I'd also be jet-setting and all my close ones would be debt-free!

What’s your fetish? *Jeffrey*
