Interview with Stella Jane – Retired Military Model

Stella Jane is a 22-year old model residing in Sacramento, California.

How would you introduce yourself to our readers?

Hey everybody! I am 22 years old and have been modeling for 5 years. I just moved back to Sacramento, California from Killeen, Texas where I served in the US Army as a combat medic. I also spent one year in Korea. I love my black lab, Scarlet. I am a huge family person which is made up of me, my two brothers and my mom and dad. I love fitness and hiking!

When, how and why did you first get involved in the modeling industry?

I have been modeling for 5 years yet it has always been a passion of mine!

What are your personal and professional goals? Where do you see yourself in five to ten years?

I would love to get into acting, I am planning on taking acting classes within the next year. I also love the medical field and don’t want to stray away from that! So everything is up in the year and I am actually not quite sure what my future holds! I will never give up modeling though.

How often are you modeling and what does it usually consist of?

I usually do shoots every other weekend if not every weekend. I have a heavy school/ work load so I typically just focus on keeping in shape on the week days.

Please tell us about the best and/or worst experiences you’ve had so far in modeling.

My best experiences that I have found in modeling is the fact that I travel. I love seeing different parts of the world. I especially enjoyed traveling around in Korea! The worst experiences would have to be unprofessional photographers.

Have you had anything funny, embarrassing or completely out of the ordinary happen during your modeling career?

Every shoot I do is different and quirky! I can’t think of any time that wasn’t yet nothing completely pops out at me! The funniest shoot I did was Alice in Wonderlamd with 10 other people and I had the luxury of being Alice 🙂

Stella Jane in black and whiteIs there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?

I would change how people perceive models, it is a difficult job and there should be more respect given. Also I would change how the modeling industry prefers super skinny and super tall models, every person is beautiful in their own special way.

Do you practice any sports and what do you typically eat? Please elaborate on the importance of nutrition and exercise in your life.

Hiking is my favorite thing in the world. I also love getting lost at the gym. It’s more than just a hobby it is essential for a healthy future. I also typically eat clean, I enjoy juicing, snacking on Greek yogurt, fruits, veggies etc but I hardly ever turn down a good burger.

Please share something people don’t know about you.

I was on the expert rifle team when I was in the Army, out of over 400 people I was the only woman. I also received 5 Army Achievement Medals while I served.

Would you change anything about yourself (physical or otherwise) if you could?

There is nothing that I would change about myself other than maybe be more understanding and more trusting.

Have you ever gone without wearing underwear all day? Why & what did you do?

I actually hardly ever wear underwear, it is uncomfortable! Lol
