Interview with Cheyenne Jones — Long legged Lilly
Cheyenne Jones is a 22-year old model residing in Huntington Beach, California.
How would you introduce yourself to our readers?
I grew up in sunny San Diego in a small mountain town just on the outskirts of the city. Off-road racing, ridding horses and playing in the dirt was my passion growing up. My family has always been a huge part of my life and when their little tom-boy decided to turn her boyish ways in heels and make up. They supported me 100% even though modeling was not something they ever saw me doing.
When, how and why did you first get involved in the modeling industry?
Ever since kindergarten I was always a foot taller than all the kids. By the time I was 14 I was nearly 5’11. People just keep telling me you’re so tall and beautiful you should model. So one day I was on the internet and signed myself up for an audition at John Robert Powers in San Diego. A few weeks later my family and I were headed out to the desert for my first off road race I’d be participating in, when I received a phone call from JRP. John Robert Powers wanted me to come in and audition. I fell in love!
What are your personal and professional goals? Where do you see yourself in five to ten years?
My professional goals today is to just give it my all in the modeling industry so one day I don’t regret going after my dreams. Of course my all time goal would to be on the Victoria’s Secret runway.
How often are you modeling and what does it usually consist of?
Recently I haven’t been modeling at all as I just moved back to the OC. I’m getting back into the groove of things… I have done all types of modeling runway, commercial, art, sport, glamour however runway is my all time favorite. Nothing beats that rush that goes through you when you walk down that runway.
Please tell us about the best and/or worst experiences you’ve had so far in modeling.
My most amazing experience in modeling was being able to be part of New York fashion week. The most horrifying experiences I have been in is when you do an implied shoot and the photographer keeps trying you to take all your clothes off and be dirty for him… Um no! Not happening!
Have you had anything funny, embarrassing or completely out of the ordinary happen during your modeling career?
It was a fashion week in LA and my family and boyfriend came to see me. I was walking for a tutu designer when I walked on the runway and my entire butt was showing and my mom turns to my boyfriend and says oh thank goodness that’s not Cheyenne. The show was almost over and my mom says where was Cheyenne? My grandma turns to her and says you didn’t see her butt?
Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?
Oh yesssss! Where do I even begin?
Do you practice any sports and what do you typically eat? Please elaborate on the importance of nutrition and exercise in your life.
I run everyday as well as do yoga. I love my fruits and veggies. I try to stay on a well based diet however living in California it’s hard not to splurge on in and out every once in a while.
Would you change anything about yourself?
The only thing I would change is my teeth. I would love a new smile. My smile has always been my biggest insecurity.
If you were the opposite sex for one day, what would you do?
If I was the opposite sex for a day I would want to have sex haha and do all the things I can’t do being a girl like walk around all day with my shirt off.
