Interview with Krystal Fang
Krystal Fang is a 23-year old model residing in San Diego, California.
How would you introduce yourself to our readers?
Hey! It’s Krystal Fang, 23 year old model and singer located in San Diego, CA; raised in Oklahoma. About 2 years ago, I moved here with my husband who’s in the Navy. My family still lives in Oklahoma, but we get to visit each other every now and then. When I’m not modeling I love to sing, write songs, read, and watch cartoons. I’m a lame; I could watch Regular Show and Adventure Time all day everyday.
When, how and why did you first get involved in the modeling industry?
I’ve always loved being in front of the camera! As soon as I found out California was going to be my new home in 2012, I saw it as a huge opportunity to pursue my dreams. I started teaming up with super talented photographers, some who I still have the pleasure of working with to this day, and took it from there.
What are your personal and professional goals? Where do you see yourself in five to ten years?
It’s really exciting when I think of where I started and how much progress I’ve made over the years. I hope to continue working with such amazing individuals and learning all I can to further my knowledge and success. I can’t really say where I see myself in 5 to 10 years, but I can say I’ll keep enjoying life and cherishing every moment that I get to reach my full potential and then some.
How often are you modeling and what does it usually consist of?
I am modeling as often as I can. Any opportunities I come across that are beneficial for myself and my career, I jump on them. My work varies from commercial, lifestyle, editorial, glamour, and nude. Recently I’ve gotten more involved with videos and it’s a lot of fun.
Please tell us about the best and/or worst experiences you’ve had so far in modeling.
My best experience with modeling so far was being in my first music video for Wonder Broz and Sage the Gemini. When I was younger, I used to want to be in a video, so that was exciting for me. But it’s not just that; everybody who was there that day emanated the desire to be successful and we were all talented and creative in our own way. It’s always nice to be around others who are driven like yourself. I’m going to knock on wood before and after my next statement: Thankfully I haven’t had any really bad experiences so far!
Have you had anything funny, embarrassing or completely out of the ordinary happen during your modeling career?
Oh man, I had a pretty funny shoot a few months back with AJ Garcia. We went out to a desert and I was freaking out because I am terrified of bees or anything large flying near me! And there were a lot! I saw it as a challenge I had to overcome; fear factor in real life. I almost had a panic attack that day. Not to mention I ended up cutting my foot from clumsiness and kept stepping on stickers everywhere. We laughed about it afterwards though, and it was definitely worth it because we got some awesome photos!
Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?
Well um, yes! I wish there weren’t restrictions with some jobs when it comes to height. I’m a short girl (5’4″), yet I tend to photograph tall because I have long limbs.
Do you practice any sports and what do you typically eat? Please elaborate on the importance of nutrition and exercise in your life.
As I’ve started getting a little older, adding a better diet into my lifestyle has surprisingly become more important to me. I say surprisingly because I’ve always been a fast food junky. I just love food! Healthy and unhealthy. My new, and some old, habits include making smoothies every morning, taking vitamins, drinking a lot of water, and working out at least 3 days a week. I can honestly say I’ve noticed a difference, and I’m glad because I don’t want to run into a lot of health issues in the future. I’m working on finding that balance!
Please share something people don’t know about you.
I don’t know how to whistle! I’m still cool though.
Would you change anything about yourself (physical or otherwise) if you could?
I would never change anything about myself. Nada.
Have you ever gone without wearing underwear all day? Why & what did you do?
Yes! When I’m at home relaxing, I like to be completely comfortable. Most of the time I’m walking around with just a crop top and underwear, and then sometimes I wear a cami dress…with nothing else. That might be too much information for some but hey, clothes can be annoying.
