Interview with Nirvana LaMuse — Fabulous & Crazy
Nirvana LaMuse is a 22-year old model residing in Denver, Colorado.
How would you introduce yourself to our readers?
I was born in New York City, and then moved to Miami when my mom re-married a super rich old Jewish man. I went to high school there, then college in Gainesville, short stint in the tribal tattoo capital of the world…Tampa. Now I live in Denver Colorado and I love it. I have an older sister named Shane and she is a high school teacher in Miami, my dad is a psychologist for the criminally insane in NYC, and my mom is an artist in Miami. My hobbies include, looking good, being fabulous, having fun, shopping, traveling, and starting a million different things but never finishing any of them.
When, how and why did you first get involved in the modeling industry?
I had photographer friends ask to take pictures of me in college and that’s basically how it started out.
What are your personal and professional goals? Where do you see yourself in five to ten years?
My ultimate goal in life is to fall in love, and be in love. That has always been my dream, to find another person that is perfect for me and I’m perfect for them. Now something a little less like a romantic movie on netflix I want to buy property and start my own business in the next 5 years.
How often are you modeling and what does it usually consist of?
I have only done photoshoots so far and I really enjoy it. Usually I have a large influence on what the picture is, although sometimes I do things I don’t personally like that the photographer wants for their portfolio. I don’t post any of the pictures that do not show me the way I like. People say that to be a model you should be versatile and always able to look different, and although that is true there is another side people don’t normally talk about. That being, having a signature look. I prefer the later. I think I am capable of looking completely different and doing a wide range of things I just prefer to maintain a personal identity that always looks similar.
Please tell us about the best and/or worst experiences you’ve had so far in modeling.
The worst would be shooting with a photographer that sucks. You wonder how they got so far because none of their pictures turn out that good. One in particular made me feel very uncomfortable and the pictures looked terrible so it was basically a waste of my time. The best would be every other shoot where the pictures turn out fabulous, I have fun, and get to be creative.
Have you had anything funny, embarrassing or completely out of the ordinary happen during your modeling career?
Nope
Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?
Wish we got paid more… I mean doesn’t everyone?. It’s all about that money honey.
Do you practice any sports and what do you typically eat? Please elaborate on the importance of nutrition and exercise in your life.
I do not do any sports, I don’t work out, and I definitely do not eat healthy. My diet consists of eating out, rice krispy treats, pre-made meals from whole foods, and soda. As far as exercise goes I hate the gym, I find it depressing and unbearably annoying. I love yoga but I have a hard time being consistent. My body looks amazing and I think if I worked out I would get too skinny and toned very quickly and I like to maintain a certain level of feminine squish.
Please share something people don’t know about you.
I hate water. I never ever ever ever drink water, I absolutely will not drink it. Juice, soda, wine, or nothing.
Would you change anything about yourself?
Yes, my second toe is longer than my first toe and it has always annoyed me. I know they say that means you’re wiser or smarter or whatever, all I know is my feet would look a lot cuter if my second toe was shorter.
If you were the opposite sex for one day, what would you do?
If I was a man for a day the first and only thing I would do all day is have sex. I’ve always thought of that and would love to know what it feels like and what it looks like and just everything about it. It would be a bonus if somehow I could actually have sex with my girl self… although it might be hard to be in two places at once.
