Q. Why do you think you should be a Black Men Model?
Black Men is a magazine that I’ve always wanted to be featured in and I feel like I definitely have what is takes to be one
of its best featured models. I mean, look at me!
Q. Did you market yourself to fans on www.Blackmendigital.com?
Yes I did! I got love from my Facebook & Twitter fan base.
Q. Were you always this amazingly curvy?
ALL OF MY LIFE. I was pulling high
school guys when I was in the sixth grade.
Q. What disadvantages do you feel you have as an urban model?
The disadvantages of being an urban model to me is the way that I’m shaped. I have hips and thunder thighs. This hinders me from booking work in the fashion industry at times. In their eyes, I’m not a “real model” because of my curves.

Q. Do you think that having size 40+ hips inhibits most models?
Yes, the imagery society puts forth via media, etc. says that you’re not supposed to have 40+ hips. It makes a lot of curvaceous women feel as if they are not good enough to be a model because of their size. Hopefully, I can be that model to let all of my 40+ women know that it’s OK to have curves! Embrace them!

I take 3 classes a week at The Alliance Theater of Atlanta.

I sure do! Don’t worry I’ve been on my grind lately.

Nicki Minaj

I’m a full time Hooter’s Girl. Ain’t no shame in my game!
Q. If you had an agent, would you refer all assignments
to them as in your agreement, or do you feel you
should take some work without informing them?
I inform him of everything. I’ve never been a shady person.
Q. How do you feel about magazines like Elle and Vogue? Do you think they should
feature more curvaceous women?
Yes, they should feature us! We would sell the clothes and provide a more common, realistic perspective for the common, everyday beautiful women that walk the earth daily. Many of us are more beautiful than high fashion models.
How do you plan to change the game?
I plan on changing people’s perception on curvaceous models. We’re categorized as urban celebrity models or video vixens and that’s it. I want to show people that we can be more than just that. We can do everything that a size 0-4 model can do if given the opportunity.
