Interview Model and DJ jadedbysophia aka dj hustle-lin

Rowald: How are you today?
Sophia: I'M HAVING A GOOD DAY SO FAR. ITS 1 PM JUST GOT UP CHILLIN IN A ROBE EATING BREAKFAST.
Rowald: When and how did you start modeling?
Sophia: LESS THEN A YEAR AGO, CERTAIN PEOPLE IN MY LIFE KEPT PUSHING ME TO DO IT OR GETTING ME GIGS, ACTUALLY MY MAIN/FAVORITE PHOTOGRAPHER RUSSELL ABAN WOULD ALWAYS PUSH ME TO SHOOT AND GET NEW PICS! SOMETIMES HE'D HAVE TO COME OVER AND DRAG ME OUT OF BED BECAUSE I'D ALWAYS TRY TO PUSH THE SHOOT TO ANOTHER DAY! SO I THANK HIM FOR MUCH OF MY SUCCESS!
Rowald: What category of photos do you do?
Sophia: ANYTHING BUT NUDE AND CROTCH SHOTS! I DON'T REALLY DO THE SPREADING MY LEG SHOTS OR THE SEE THRU NO PANTIES SHOTS. NOT MY THING. I'LL SAVE THOSE FOR WHEN I GET PAID THE BIG BUCKS. LOL I DON'T WANT TO WASTE IT ON 15 MINUTES OF FAME, ITS NOT LIKE I HAVE A PAID SITE YET ANYWAYS.
Rowald: Did you take any classes for modeling or acting?
Sophia: GOING TO START TAKING CLASSES FOR ACTING VERY VERY SOON. HAVE NEVER TAKEN MODELING CLASSES THOUGH.
Rowald: What do you do to make a shoot work out?
Sophia: I THINK THE PHOTOGRAPHER AND MODEL HAVE TO HAVE A CONNECTION. THEY HAVE TO KNOW WHAT EACHOTHER'S NEXT MOVES ARE! LIKE IF I MOVE A CERTAIN WAY OR LEAN A CERTAIN WAY, RUSSELL WOULD HAVE TO GET ON HIS KNEES OR GET ON A LADDER TO GET THE RIGHT ANGLE FOR THAT SHOT! ITS NOT LIKE A PHOTOGRAPHER CAN SAY HOLD THAT POSE AND THEN FIDDLE AROUND WITH THE CAMERA TO FIND THE SHOT! BOTH PARTIES SHOULD KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING AND WORK TOGETHER TO TRY TO GET THE BEST PICTURES POSSIBLE!
Rowald: Does a shoot make you nervous?
Sophia: THEY DON'T MAKE ME NERVOUS, I AM USUALLY ON CLOSED SHOOTS, SO I DON'T HAVE THE PUBLIC AROUND THAT MUCH. SOMETIMES I SHOOT IN THE PUBLIC, AND I CAN CARE LESS ABOUT WHAT THEY THINK!
Rowald: Do you have a preferred scenery or outfit?
Sophia: I LOVE BEACH SHOTS, ME AND RUSSELL PLAN TO DO ANOTHER BEACH SHOT AND A DESERT SHOT AS SOON AS IT WARMS UP AGAIN! I LOVE OUTFITS THAT POP! WHETHER ITS THE STYLE/FIT OR ITS THE FABRIC OR COLOR!
Rowald: What was your most exiting modeling moment?
Sophia: WHEN IT WAS MY FIRST PAID SHOOT! I WAS LIKE, MAN THIS SHIT IS EASY! I MADE SURE TO DO A GREAT JOB ALWAYS THOUGH WHETHER ITS A PAID SHOOT OR NOT!
Rowald: What's your experience been like so far?
Sophia: ITS BEEN REALLY FUN! GOOD CLEAN FUN AT THE SHOOTS! THE INDUSTRY REALLY DOESN'T TRY TO PLAY THE "TICKLE MY DICK" GAME WITH ME BECAUSE I HAVE REALLY GOOD FRIENDS IN THE INDUSTRY ALREADY THAT WOULD FLIP OUT IF THEY HEARD OF ANOTHER INDUSTRY PERSON TRYING TO GET ME TO DO ANYTHING EXTRA FOR ANY GIGS! I FEEL SORRY FOR THE MODELS THAT HAVE TO GO THRU THAT OR LET THE DIRTBAGS IN THE INDUSTRY GET AWAY WITH THAT. I HAVE MORALS WHETHER I LOOK LIKE I DO OR NOT!
Rowald: I guess you do not do modeling full time. What else do you do?
Sophia: RIGHT NOW I AM DJ-ING ACROSS THE US AND CANADA, BUT I JUST SIGNED WITH THE SAME COMPANY THAT HALLE BERRY AND SHAQ ARE SIGNED TO. THEY ARE WORKING ON GETTIN ME AN ALBUM STARTED! IT WILL BE POP FOR SURE AND YOU CAN BET YOU'LL HEAR IT ON THE RADIO AND IN THE CLUBS YOU SHAKE YOUR ASS TO!
Rowald: What are the worst assumptions people make about models?
Sophia: THEY ARE DUMB. MAYBE SOME ARE, I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T GO AROUND AND TAKE POLLS OF INTELLIGENCE, I'VE BEEN THRU COLLEGE AND GOT MY REAL ESTATE DEGREE, ALONG WITH THE MANAGEMENT EXPERIENCE I HAVE AND I USED TO BE A PHARMACY TECH! SO I CAN GO BACK TO ANY OF THOSE "LEGIT" "REAL JOBS" HAHHAHAHA.... ANYTIME. SO I HAVE SOMETHING TO DEFINITELY FALL BACK ON... I'LL MAKE MY OWN MONEY NO MATTER WHAT. I WONT HAVE TO SEARCH AND MARRY A RICH GUY LIKE SOME OTHERS MAY. AND THAT MY FRIEND, IS POWER FOR A WOMAN! JUST TO CHOOSE HER MATE WITHOUT HAVING TO THINK ABOUT A GUY HAVING TO SUPPORT HER. WHAT IF 10 YEARS DOWN THE LINE HE FINDS A YOUNGER GIRL? THEN WHAT DO WILL THE GIRL HAVE? NOTHING TO FALL BACK ON.
Rowald: Do you have any favorite artists?
Sophia: YES I HAVE ALOT OF FAVORITE ARTISTS! I THINK EVERY ARTIST OUT THERE BIG OR SMALL DESERVES RECOGNITION. ITS NOT EASY TRYING TO MAKE IT, SO ANYONE THAT IS TRYING IS MY FAVORITE.. WHETHER THEY ARE SELLING THEIR CD'S OUTSIDE THE CLUB GETTING THEIR HUSTLE ON OR WHETHER ITS TIMBERLAND IN THE STUDIO MAKING NEW BEATS TO SELL. THEY ARE ALL MY FAVORITE!
