There was a brazilian dude and stylist stopped him a second before he went to runway cause this guy had a piece of wood in his underwear (to make his gun look bigger) and the stylist told him “what the fuck you doing” and he goes like “Well I just wanna look sexy” can you believe that ? I think the stylist should put the piece of wood on his ass side- that would look sexy :-)

Q : Do u exercise? witch is your rutine.?
A : I’m trying to go 4 times per week - and also some swimming and cardio, but I like to eat too so when I burn it I love to feed myself like balloon :-).

Q : Who do you admire and who is your role model in life or profession?
A : Well that would be nobody from models I admire a few other people but they are from music ( Pete Doherty,Anthony Kiedis,actor ( Will Smith,Jack Balck,T. Hanks,T.Cruise,J.Depp.B.Pitt) or business people( Robert T. Kiyosaki,D.Trump)
Q : What does it mean for you to be a MODEL?
A :I love attention - somepeople may say the loudest person in the room is the weakest but I don’t care. I love to be in the spotlight and in this job there is always a place for me to grab a piece of this attention. I love to travel and meet new people so this is a great opportunity and having a lot of free time too -it’s just how you spend it.

It was a very intimate look, and as we were in the midst of the shoot, the owner of the house came in to check it out. His knees buckeled and mouth completely dropped when he saw us.
His expression alone was had me cracking up. It turns out the photographer didn’t tell him totally what we were doing. It was a had-to-be-there kind of story.
