What are your opinions on the state of the black male today?
I feel that some black men today are astraying away from black females and are turning to other females of different races. It's not that it's a bad or good thing, its just what I have been noticing about black males in my environment.
When a gentleman attempts to approach you in public, give us some advice on how it should be done?
He should be very respectful, with a formal introduction. Shouldn't make too many physical comments, because that can sometimes be a turn off. He should be himself and not try to impress me with his money or what else he has to offer. That can also be a turn off. Keep it short, sweet, and simple.
Give us a description of a normal evening at home with you?
Catching up on my favorite tv shows, interacting with my internet chat buddies and spending time with my pomeranians.
Overall today theres a lot of talk regarding sisters and the whole bisexual movement, if you want to call it that. What are your personal feelings regarding this rising 'phenomenon' among black women?
I feel that some black women are turning to each other for emotional support, because some black men are not supporting sister like they use too. I don't think it's a sexual matter, just more emotional support that sisters can give each other.
What are your thoughts regarding brothers on the DL(Down Low)? This seems to be a growing issue with our sisters today.
I feel that the growing population of black men in prision is a big affect on why there are so many brothers on the DL. Instead of prison being a rehabilitation center, it's more like a trap to destroy the black race. I feel it's a faze that can be broken and a delusion of being trapped with no other way but the wrong way.
What are some of your other interest outside of modeling?
Acting and working with children. I enjoy being around animals and volunteering to help homeless and neglected children. I enjoy writing and I enjoy doing art work.
Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
I see myself as an A list motion picture actress. I want to own and direct homes for the homeless and children. I want my own foundation, a charity that goes to the victims affected by poverty and neglected children.
What advice would you give to young women considering a career in modeling?
You must be patience and wise. Never do anything you don't feel comfortable doing. There are always going to be someone else, and the modeling industry isn't going anywhere.
