Interview with Madeline M — Entrepreneur Model
Madeline M is a 25-year old model residing in Los Angeles, California.
How would you introduce yourself to our readers?
I was born and raised for 21 years in a small town called Healdsburg where I grew up knowing that the vineyards were the fences of my home. It’s a beautiful place to grow up. Although, you learn to appreciate and be grateful where you come from when you get a taste of the fast city life -Los Angeles- but I knew it as, La La Land. I enjoyed outdoor activities from Camping, Kayaking, Fire safety, hiking, and more. I enjoyed the Theatre, Broadway, Dance, and Film. I picked up the hobbies such as Makeup Artistry, Film, Acting, Dance, and Poi Spinning.
When, how and why did you first get involved in the modeling industry?
I was a makeup artist and I worked with models from agency approved photographers in LA. I saw and learned first hand how it all worked. Knowing what I know now, I can bring way more to the table than I could before. LA is a whole other package to endure. It was for years though that I would hear once in a while, whether in my video production class or doing makeup gigs, that my face needed to be in front instead of behind the camera. So… I took a shot with my friend called courage.
What are your personal and professional goals? Where do you see yourself in five to ten years?
I want to be my own product, just being me, but collaborate with amazing talented artists from around the world no matter how small the sketches are.. I want to create something big with the creative concepts I can put into my modeling for your eyes to see but developed with an amazing team. Maybe in 5 to 10 years I’m my own boss to other beautiful model creatures that are also trying to be something in LA, but it’s their stories that they tell which make them beautiful.
How often are you modeling and what does it usually consist of?
As often as I can and depends on the creativity of the work and who the photographer or filmmakers port is like.
Do you practice any sports and what do you typically eat? Please elaborate on the importance of nutrition and exercise in your life.
I am on a gluten free diet and do poi, dance, and acyro yoga
Would you change anything about yourself?
I tried that and someone upstairs took it away and said it’s not normal too.
Where is the weirdest place you’ve ever peed?
Alright… Paint the picture… It’s raining and my boyfriend and I are camping. well, I have to pee and it’s definitely cold,raining, and wet outside. There’s a tarp that is covering the top of the tent but the opening is by the door so the tarp is able to move as it dangles. My boyfriend and I have been doing a lot of acyro yoga, so suddenly, an idea came to play. Why not hold my arms and I’ll squat my butt out of the tent door and just pee. I mean, the tent was on a hill and there was a tarp on top AND bottom, so that meant everything would wash and run downhill. My boyfriend is just down with the whole idea right away, I mean I really had to go and I just didn’t want to dress and go out in the rain. So there I go, I squat out my butt, the top tarp that dangles down is against my bare butt and my arms are extended out to my boyfriend who is just holding me with a firm grip while I pee outside the tent and it runs downhill…. I was a genius in those woods….
