Not getting my e-passport just because I was told I am not a citizen due to the fact that I’m mixed and I have already turned 21 so I have to make a decision and renounce citizenship.


WHAT MADE YOU FIRST BECOME A MODEL? 




Honestly speaking, I was young and never thought of ever becoming a model until the day I was scouted in Westgate Mall (S.A). The minute I thought about it I just went into a trance and that’s the day I started thinking deeply about modeling.







HOW DID YOU FEEL WHEN YOU DID YOUR FIRST EVER 

FASHION SHOW OR PHOTO SHOOT?


 First ever Fashion Show I was a bit nervous for a few minutes then I started warming up 2 the crowd and how things are done…My first ever Photo shoot, it was ok, I was just laid back and being natural in front of the camera.


HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE CONTROVERSY OF THE 

SIZE ZERO DEBATE IN THE INDUSTRY?


It doesn’t bother me that much, its standard


 procedure but if I was to change the modeling 


industry and bend the rules I would use fit 


women.


WHAT ARE YOUR GUILTY PLEASURES FOOD WISE?


 I really don’t have any, I am a health freak but I guess I’d have to say ice cream and chocolate.



WHAT BEAUTY TIPS DO YOU SWEAR BY?




Daily exercises and a lot of water/fluids. I wash my face at least twice a day.







HOW DO YOU KEEP A FIT AND HEALTHY BODY?




I’m a professional dancer and choreographer



, so it keeps me super fit. I Play Basketball 


and swim a lot.


HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE YOUR STYLE?


I am an open minded versatile person and I


would say my style is diverse and very 


dynamic---it changes all the time normally 


based on my mood of the day.


HOW DO YOU MAINTAIN A HEALTHY SENSE OF SELF-

ESTEEM AND POSITIVE BODY IMAGE?
 




I surround myself with positive people and I



 do not let anyone bring me down. I just reek 


of confidence so I am always in good spirits 


let alone a happy mood.


WHAT HAS BEEN YOUR FAVOURITE CITY IN THE

 WORLD TO VISIT AND WHY? WHERE WOULD YOU

LIKE TO 
TRAVEL TO NEXT?


I haven’t done any serious travelling as of yet due to school but I have been to south Africa and out of all the places I was at I happen to have enjoyed Jhb more because it is me—very interesting for a youngster. And I love travelling so I will be doing a lot of it soon.First stop is Jamaica then the islands preferably Trinidad and Tobago.




WHAT MOTIVATES OR INSPIRES YOU TO ACHIEVE YOUR GOALS? WHAT ARE SOME OF THOSE GOALS?

Life in general, daily experiences. Life challenges and just having a passion and zeal for life. Other people’s negativity motivates me to make it I prove them wrong by working hard. My mother, owning my own entertainment Agency and being a young successful guy. Bringing change to people’s lives and inspiring them.

IF YOU WERE STRANDED ON A DESERT ISLAND AND COULD ONLY HAVE ONE BEAUTY PRODUCT AND ONE FASHION ITEM WITH YOU, WHAT WOULD THEY BE AND WHY?

Sunscreen---to protect my delicate soft sensitive skin from extreme sun rays and a pair of Shades/sun glasses because I have eye problems but the aim would be looking RAVISHING in a tight predicament of being STRANDED.

WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY?

Being Healthy and safe at all times, Dancing, Music, My family, 


Fashion/shopping and Inspiring people.

IF A YOUNG GIRL/BOY WANTED TO BE A MODEL WHAT WOULD YOUR ADVICE  FOR THEM BE?

Work hard, get ready to be exploited because every model has a story to tell. It’s all glamorous on stage but its chaos backstage. Get ready to work with rude professional people and do not take it personal, because the Industry is dangerous. Get ready to get your feelings hurt but the aim is to have fun and grow as a person..
