Interview with Kittie Kosmetic — From Cosmetology to Cameras
Kittie Kosmetic is a 21-year old model residing in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
How would you introduce yourself to our readers?
I was born in Los Angeles, California on April 20th 1993. I was born to two immigrated parents from Albania and Trinidad, with two older sisters already in the picture. Growing up I always had a huge love for the 50s and 60s, the classic style of a pin up, and makeup. As some hobbies I took interest in painting, singing, dabbling with special effect make up and naps.
My interest include horror films, old cinema, comics and fashion. After school I went to cosmetology school and shortly after graduation started to model.
When, how and why did you first get involved in the modeling industry?
Right after I graduated I worked on photo sets as Hair and Make up person. One day after the model ran late the photographer on set asked if he could shoot me, after he published the photos on Facebook the rest wrote itself.
I just bounced around doing shoots and local events that called for models and networked myself out.
What are your personal and professional goals? Where do you see yourself in five to ten years?
Professionally, I’d love to make the cover of a tattoo magazine one day, and start a lingerie line.
Personally, start a little punk rock family in the middle of suburbia and find myself on the beach every other day… or just become a mermaid.
How often are you modeling and what does it usually consist of?
I shoot whenever I can, unfortunately real life gets in the way of me playing dress up. Idealy one day I’d love to shoot at least once a week.
When I find myself in front of a camera you can bet I’m most likely seductively posed in some pumps, red lipstick, a garter belt and pin curls, as the little pin up of your dreams. Though on occasion I’ll go out of my zone and go editorial.
Please tell us about the best and/or worst experiences you’ve had so far in modeling.
How can I pick a best moment… each time I shoot the people I’ve worked with have been wonderful and have left great lasting memories that make me want to strive in this career. Luckily I haven’t had any worst experiences; fingers crossed I’ll never do.
Have you had anything funny, embarrassing or completely out of the ordinary happen during your modeling career?
I always feel really awkward when I shoot in public and people stare or take their own photos while I hold a pose…. weird…
Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?
I think it is what it is and I love it for what it is.
Do you practice any sports and what do you typically eat? Please elaborate on the importance of nutrition and exercise in your life.
I love home cooked meals. But as far as precise diet and exercise I really don’t do anything. I’d like to thank my mom and dad for the genetics.
Please share something people don’t know about you.
I’m terrified of the dark and to do a cartwheel….. They scare the hell out of me,
Would you change anything about yourself?
I’d love to have a bigger ass, but other than that, I really like myself.
Do you have any fears or phobias?
I hate the dark, I will cry if I’m stuck in a dark room. I sleep with 3 night lights and the TV on.
