Interview with Toneata Morgan
Toneata Morgan is an 18-year old model residing in Los Angeles, California.
How would you introduce yourself to our readers?
I am a true “California Girl”. Born in San Francisco, I lived in the Sierras until moving to the Malibu area as a teen. I am a college student, model, actress, and Miss Malibu Teen USA 2014. For hobbies, I love shopping, driving, horseback riding; snowboarding, wakeboarding, tennis, canoeing, swimming, hiking, and camping. Also, I believe it is important to be a positive force in our community and am actively involved in volunteer work.
When, how and why did you first get involved in the modeling industry?
I have always loved fashion, and began modeling a few years ago.
What are your personal and professional goals? Where do you see yourself in five to ten years?
As a communications major at a University in Southern California, my goals are to obtain a Masters Degree, then become a successful entrepreneur in the entertainment / fashion industry, as well as a top model and actress.
How often are you modeling and what does it usually consist of?
Most of my modeling work is e-commerce, print and video/acting, but I have done some runway, commercials and billboard.
Please tell us about the best and/or worst experiences you’ve had so far in modeling.
Well, like most models, I am not crazy about “cattle calls,” where you show up with a huge crowd and wait forever for your turn. The best experiences have involved going to awesome shoot locations, or working with terrific photographers.
Have you had anything funny, embarrassing or completely out of the ordinary happen during your modeling career?
I guess the most extraordinary thing about modeling is the opportunity I have had to meet so many talented people, including a lot of celebrities.
Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?
I would be a world renowned top model, and star in my own modeling show helping new models.
Do you practice any sports and what do you typically eat? Please elaborate on the importance of nutrition and exercise in your life.
As a critical part of my lifestyle, I exercise strenuously every day, and eat right, including plenty of fruit, vegetables, and water.
Please share something people don’t know about you.
I enjoy horror movies and shows like “The Walking Dead”.
Would you change anything about yourself (physical or otherwise) if you could?
It would be fun to have the intellect of Einstein, but in my body.
What is the one talent you wish you possessed?
It would be so fun to have a flawless singing voice, with extreme range.
