The Boss Lady Anthem video is super hot! How long have you been singing for?
Basically all my life but I only started doing it seriously lately.

What is your best feature?
My personality.

Do you have an alter ego?
I do have one but and it’s actually a very quiet television loving, church going, get married before sex personality! [Laughs]

Are you currently single?
Yes. I hate being single – but men make it hard to see them sometimes! Seriously.

What has been your most memorable experience in the modelling industry so far?
It has to be my first two printed covers that was definitely my most memorable experience for Candy Magazine and Pulse Magazine

What would your ideal day consist of?
My ideal day would be spending the day with my husband if I had one and doing the things that lovers do [laughs!] Maybe going to the studio after and make music then doing photo shoots in different countries. That’s pretty much my lifestyle now, minus the husband!

Could you tell us your regime in terms of diet and exercise?
I have a fast metabolism so luckily I am able to eat whatever I like!

If you could change something about yourself if anything at all – what would it be and why?
I would change my hair colour. I’ve always wanted to be blonde I think that look would suit me!

Do you respond to criticism well or are you very sensitive?
I would like to believe I do! On Facebook some people can hate but I’m good. Especially if there is an erase button! But most of my ‘out-there’ work so to speak, is for me, so criticism or not – I’m happy with it .and that’s all that matters.

Who do you most admire?
JESUS above all… I love Beyonce because she is extremely blessed and where she is now she will never have to know what it is like to struggle or work hard for something ever again. I love Toni Braxton – she has been around for years – I still love her. 50 cent – he’s so damn sexy! [Laughs]Kyle my older brother and Barack Obama – no explanation needed.

What is your biggest weakness?
[Pauses to think] Uhmm – a really sexy guy with a nice personality. I mean you never meet those these days!

Who are your favourite brand designers?
Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Akademiks, Playboy, and Baby Phat. I also like Ed Hardy, D&G, Adidas and Nike.

When you look in the mirror what do you see?
I see beauty, a lonely girl but nonetheless beauty and sexiness.

What are your plans for the future?
Music, modelling, and marriage!
