Interview with Megan Starr Loxx — Your Variety Show

Megan Starr Loxx is a 26-year old model residing in Las Vegas, Nevada.

How would you introduce yourself to our readers?

I am 26 years old, born and raised in Las Vegas, NV, started freelance modeling when I turned 18 back in 2008, and have been modeling full time since 2010. I love skiing, kayaking, and many other outdoor adventures, have a love for animals and try to give back by volunteering at animal shelters. I also have a passion for real estate, have dreams of owning many properties and renting them out to tenants, and want to fix up homes and flip them for a profit as well.

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

I always wanted to be a model, ever since I was a teenager, specially a Victoria Secret, or Venus lingerie model, as well as becoming a sex symbol. I started applying for modeling gigs the day I turned 18, and didn’t know where to look at first; I didn’t even hear about ModelMayhem until 2009, so I found all of my gigs by referrals during my first year of modeling, and took strange fetish gigs that I still participate in to this day. It has been a long and exciting journey for me.

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

I will continue to pursue modeling for as long as the money and the bookings are steady. I do a lot of fetish content, and I now produce and sell my own content, as well as I plan to continue to grow my fanbase and further market my brand. I would also like to hire a reputable web master and get my website up and running as I envision it by next year, and am currently hiring other models to fulfill custom video orders. I would also like to learn more about editing, and photoshopping, as I enjoy being self-employed, and I am grateful for the lifestyle modeling has given me.

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

How often I shoot varies greatly from month to month. There is a lot of traveling photographers that come to Las Vegas, and some are looking to hire models for professional projects they are working on, while others are what I call hobbyists. I shoot erotic, nudes, glamour, artistic, outdoors, fetish, and even video shoots. I am available to be booked for a large variety of gigs, don’t have a single tattoo, no facial piercings, no breast implants or other body modifications, and I try to keep an overall natural look that has become hard to find here in Las Vegas. Certain conventions such as CES, AVN, and Bridal, will bring in many photographers and I am always booked once to twice a day. The summer is also very busy for me, as all of June and July has had 1 to 2 shoots booked per day, with one day off a week. However, I have to use that one day off to get caught up on my custom video orders that fans placed the week before. Other times of the year are much slower, with only 2 shoots a week.

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

I’ve had some great experiences over the last 8 years modeling; for example, I have had the pleasure of driving a Bugatti topless, I’ve traveled all over the world modeling on all expenses paid trips and cruises, I’ve met some incredibly beautiful and talented people along the way, and I even created some lifelong friendships. I have had very minimal negative experiences modeling, and I would have to say the worst for me personally is the impersonation. Some photographers and videographers that hired me many times throughout the years, and had accumulated a lot of content of me, created stores and websites impersonating me, using my name, and writing in first person as their marketing strategy. This caused several fans to believe they were communicating with me directly.

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

Well… given the many different unique fetishes I have done over the years, yes tons of embarrassing things have happened on shoots. I have gotten used to humiliating myself on camera at work, but again this is just in the fetish category. There was this one time, I had to fly to Portland, Oregon for a 3 day trip were I was shooting two of those days for a well known adult site, and I had to provide my own wardrobe, as well as do my own hair and make up. Well the airline lost my luggage leaving me with nothing the entire trip! I had to use leftover wardrobe on set, I couldn’t do my hair for the shoots, and the cheap replacement razor I used gave me a horrible rash on my vagina. It was embarrassing.

Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?

I wouldn’t change the modeling industry at all. I would however like to go back in time and never work with certain people.

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

I have been eating very poorly ever since my childhood. I am officially ready to change my eating habits drastically, and for the past 90 days I have been making better eating choices. I do exercise every single day for at least 30 minutes. I go on a 5 mile jog once a week, and love going to the gym.

Would you change anything about yourself?

I think it is always important to continue growing and bettering yourself as a person. I am not perfect and I have bad habits I am working on, such as time management, diet, and more. As for my physical image, I would change a couple things if I could. Such as removing my freckles, having a natural tan, being two inches shorter, having thicker hair, bigger lips on my face, smaller lips on my vagina. I realize all those features make up my unique look, and even though it isn’t my personal physical preference for myself, I am still beautiful.

Where is the weirdest place you’ve ever peed?

The strangest place I ever peed was into a large vase used for flowers on my kitchen floor, and I had to hover over it. It was for a clip for my fetish and adult store. You can purchase it for $14.99 here, if you’re too curious and have to see for yourself.

Interview with Oki Doki — Burlesque Performer and Avant Model

Oki Doki is a 22-year old model residing in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

How would you introduce yourself to our readers?

Born in Daytona Beach, Florida, I moved away as soon as I graduated high school and immediately got involved in the local arts scene of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The rest is history as the people I met helped catapult me into the performance and visual art world that I now find myself in. When I’m not behind the camera or on the stage, I’m typing away at my computer as a freelance journalist and editor for a local paper from back home, Florida.

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

It’s seems silly, but I truly got my beginning when I got my senior portraits done for high school. I couldn’t believe how much I loved it, and the photographer seemed to really enjoy my energy! When my portraits came out looking something out of a magazine and not a yearbook I decided I wanted to start doing it professionally. After moving to Michigan I quickly became involved in the local burlesque troupe, and finding photographers to model for was easy after that.

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

I have a lot of goals, with an umbrella goal of accomplishing at least half of them. The big two are expanding my horizons as a performance artist and going on an international tour. Some other goals include getting photos done I’ve only dreamed of, finishing college, and making a million dollars -at once of course-.

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

I don’t model often anymore, and this is because I’ve just got a lot more picky about who I want photographing me and what type of modeling I want to portray. I used to do anything – so long as I was getting paid. Now I do a lot of t4t shoots with amazing photographers who can make my visions come true. I tend to fall into the erotic category, and though I love a good boudoir shoot I find myself leaning more towards art nudes and avant-garde themes.

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

Oh boy. Let’s get the bad out of the way first… I had a horrid experience with a “photographer” who drank whisky during the entire shoot, despite having to drive to different locations, asked me inappropriate questions, and never got my photos to me because I turned him down when he asked me out. Now the best experience is literally any time I’ve shot with Tim Motley: the man is an utter genius, and gives the absolute best feedback. If he likes what you’re doing, you’ll hear a lot of “ohh fuck yeah”‘s and “holy shiiiiit”‘s – it’s hilarious and very reassuring.

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

Sometimes I’ll wear those cheap, fake nails you can pick up at the dollar store for shoots -although they don’t look cheap or fake on camera- so that I don’t have to do my real nails, which wouldn’t look as good anyway. Though the last time I picked them up, I forgot to pick up the nail glue you have to use to apply them. So, I used eyelash glue instead, which made sense and seemed like a fine alternative. The shoot was in a bathtub, however, and as the shoot progressed my nails kept falling off in the tub. My MUA was desperately fishing in the milky water for my lost nails every few minutes, and super-gluing them back on! The damn things didn’t come off for days after that… but we all had a good laugh.

Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?

Of course, we all want to change something, though I think most of us can agree that it would be great if people weren’t so damn flaky. You don’t even want to know how many shoots I have booked that never even happened, because someone didn’t get back to me after agreeing to a damn date.

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

I’ve always done yoga, since I was a kid and my mom owned a shop that sold incense and crystals. Yoga has been a huge part of my life, and it is both a fantastic workout and stress reliever. Though on top of yoga I run in the summers -give me a break, I live in Michigan- and have recently been learning aerial silks at an aerials gym once a week. Nutrition has also always been a big part of my life, with a father who is a nutritionist. I try to keep a balanced diet, I never starve myself, and I never get fast food… ok, the occasional fry.

Please share something people don’t know about you.

In the realm of models and photographers, many people aren’t aware that I’m in a burlesque troupe. They’re called Super Happy Funtime Burlesque and it is the absolute best time of my life. We write zany, original music, tour the country and meet some of the most amazing people showbiz has got to offer!

Would you change anything about yourself?

Never. You should always love yourself, both on the inside and the outside, and if a change needs to be made, make it for yourself and always be healthy both physically and mentally. I love my life, my friends and the experiences I continue to make. I wouldn’t change a thing.

What was the meanest rumor ever spread about you?

High school was great in a lot of ways, but high school was also hell. I had a girl, who did not like me at all, spent weeks with one of her friends making custom t-shirts, headbands, and even socks! that said “Rheannon is a Whore” or some such variation of that sentiment. She even made an entire photo album on Myspace of their progress — though of course I didn’t see this until after she passed them out to any and everyone who would wear one on the last day of my Sophomore year. I made it through one class before I reported her and got to go home until the next year. In an ironic twist of fate, she later became my best friend, although we don’t speak anymore.

Interview with Deven — SAG-AFTRA Actress, Rock Singer, Model

Deven is a 28-year old model residing in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

How would you introduce yourself to our readers?

Greetings, and it’s a pleasure to have you take an interest in my work as well as this blog. I am Michigan-made and proud, having lived on both sides of the state. I have a Bachelors Degree in Theatre and took my passion overseas where I studied Drama in London, and growing up on the stage put a curse on the world for me, it’s the only place I really feel like I am home, although it definitely helped with my wonderful relationship with the camera and how I express myself.

When I moved to Detroit, I became a full-time artist; shooting films and commercials, modeling for local clothing companies and magazines, as well as developing two very amazing rock bands. I also grew up in a family of musicians, so music and singing are also huge parts of my life; and aside from the arts, I have many hobbies, including fitness training, pole dancing, yoga, dance, cooking, astronomy, and traveling… not forgetting my family and adorable cats.

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

I started modeling in my late teens but never felt comfortable branching out until I started acting professionally. I never saw myself as a model, just a young girl who liked dressing up and taking photos. When I started getting exposure from film, I knew I had to set my standards higher for myself which meant branch out in different areas of art, which included modeling. Head shots were crucial so on top of a headshot session, I would have a modeling session. Then I got involved with doing live runway shows and print work in Detroit which was an incredible experience.

My inner tigress came out during the live shows, I felt like I was thriving; in my recent shoots, I have been known to be aggressive, raw, and let’s say… unconventional, depending on what type of shoot, of course. I prefer going places models usually don’t go, because I have the advantage of extensive acting experience on camera and on stage, and as such my passion drives my body wherever it happens to go in the shoot. Now, I am taking my career to a whole different, higher level of commitment, and finally believe I can make my mark as an artist. Modeling is a huge part of helping me love and respect myself, and to help aspire to be the best I can be.

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

Professional goals are simple: win an Oscar, win a Grammy, and create art with incredible people around the world, which will be a lot of work, but I am one to reach instead of wonder. I hope to one day be able to travel all over the world and connect with people from all walks of life, maybe even raise a family and live in a different place… I can see myself touring in a few years, filming overseas and taking my cats wherever I go. Most importantly, I want to see myself happier and healthier than ever.

Wherever I will be, I hope it is surrounded by good food, good company, and good beer. I love craft beer, always loved the idea of running a theatre or brewery down the road and I can get away with running the show. So, nothing too big.

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

I am a working actress, which is my primary career, and I do a lot of print shoots that are more Gothic or alternative fashion; then I got into doing more Erotic, Fetish, and BDSM shows and walk the catwalk, flog the models, and others. Lingerie and Chains soon became some favorite things to wear. I took a break from modeling as I went through a transition in my life and am now back and ready to rock, and I have a promo video in production which should be ready by Spring. I was also just recently published with over 20 prints, and have more in the mix, and I am always in search of more gigs and hope to make modeling another career.

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

I haven’t really had a bad experience, I learned from other models to research who you are working with and always be in communication with the photographer. So, I’ve never been in a bind, however, the most interesting shoot I did was in town, and I never met the guy personally. I loved his style, and we wanted to meet up and talk, where he told me to just bring a bunch of different clothes and we would wing it. When I got to his studio, I took a look at his artwork and immediately knew the clothes I brought would be useless. So, thankfully I had pasties, I put on a Mexican wrestling mask, and we ended up shooting for almost 8 hours!

It was an awkward beginning but as we worked, we developed a great friendship; it was intense and emotional, and crazy and wild. He is still a dear friend of mine. My best experience so far has been recent, as I just had my first publication of being a Cover Model for a magazine, as well as having over 10 solo shots and 10 shots with a lovely young woman. It was an honor to have been selected, and I can’t wait to get published again. Fingers crossed!

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

Probably, however I have no shame and prefer the strange, so what may seem normal to me, may be strange for others. I guess not every gig will ask a model to flog the other models at the end of a fashion show, and dance in nothing but leather straps; before the show, I was lucky enough to have a fellow model tell me I had toilet paper stuck on the bottom of my boot, so she saved me from some embarrassment.

Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?

Yes. However, I think the industry is evolving in a positive direction, at least how the world views models. The expectations are more realistic and healthy, models are different sizes and shapes, which are more relatable to the public eye. Designers are growing bold, and there are many more models and designers coming into their own thanks for social media. I am looking forward to seeing where the industry goes.

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 a gym monkey, I am in at least 5 days a week, rotating cardio, swimming, and weightlifting. I also pole dance and study yoga. Diet and nutrition are very important to maintain the type of physique I identify with, although most of my young adult life, I was a horrible eater and always forgot to eat or starve myself a week before a shoot. The weight would come off but come back on just as fast. That would cycle into lowering self-confidence, and fearing the gym.

Plus, I am a musician and we had a lot of shows, and a lot of drinking to do. I’d see myself in pictures as skinny, and not in a good way, so I decided instead of getting frustrated with myself, I took action to develop healthy habits instead of grandiose goals. Goals sounds sexier, but habits are consistent, as with eating healthy, I have energy and optimism to work out, which helps my overall mentality and perception on life. Go eat some colorful food, drink a lot of water, get some good sleep, and smile.

Please share something people don’t know about you.

I am hyper-extended in my arms and legs, which makes horror shoots extra fun, which means I can spin my arms around in different ways and gross out the manliest of men.

Would you change anything about yourself?

I have always had an insecurity towards my nose, and tried to distract from it by having bangs for 8 years. Since I grew my bangs out, I have had more compliments on my nose and face than ever before. I found my nose irritating because it would cast a shadow in photos, and utter nonsense that I eventually realized there was no point in criticizing. I took to heart what friends said: to just embrace myself, nose and all.

What is your guilty pleasure?

Beer and cheese, or beer cheese, or pasta with cheese… I have an unhealthy obsession with it. Life is too short not to indulge every once in a while. In fact, it’s healthy to treat yourself in moderation. If I gave up cheese forever, I would die, or just be very sad.

Interview with Manda Dawn — Freelance Model

Manda Dawn is a 20-year old model residing in Cataula, Georgia.

How would you introduce yourself to our readers?

Hi there everyone! I go by Manda Dawn. I am an 18 year old Georgia peach. I was born and raised in Georgia; I graduate this year, and am just so happy to be done with high school! I have a crazy family, that you can’t help but love. A unique hobby I have is playing and taking care of my pet squirrel Nutella. I looove to sing, it’s I guess you could say my passion or talent. Eventually, I am going to go to college to get my degree in psychology. I really love helping, and just caring for people the best I can.

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

I have always wanted to get into modeling, but just never knew exactly how, especially living in a really small town. I just needed some kind of opportunity. After going through months of training with Barbizon USA, and learning a lot about modeling, I wanted to take it a step further. I got into modeling because what girl has not fantasized about all eyes being on her? I have always thought the idea was just super cool, and thought I would be great for it!

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

In 5 years I see myself with my psychologist degree, hopefully opening up my own business to try to help people better themselves and just understand their situations. In 10 years I hope to have a beautiful family, to share my success with, and build an empire with.

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

Well, I love new opportunities, but can not take every little thing that comes my way. I mainly do photo shots and videos. I love doing fashion, erotic or lingerie, bikini and glamour shoots. Most times I am loaded down with shoots to do all over!

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

I have never really had a bad experience so far, and hope not to have one either. I am just a very bubbly person, so I am always smiling and dancing around behind the scenes of shoots and videos. I love when the photographer has music playing, it relaxes me so I can do my thing!

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

I love doing bikini shoots, because most of the time you are outside and have tons of people around you, mainly on the beaches. It’s funny to me because you never know what is going on in their head.

Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?

There is a lot I would change in the modeling industry if I could. One main thing that really bothers me, is stereotyping. Most people think you have to be stick thin, or a skyscraper to model, but I believe that if you are devoted and dedicated, why can’t you do what you love? The industry has all types of modeling, from runway to plus size modeling, and size and shape should not matter, but it does to many.

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

I used to do track, before I grew really big boobs! I exercise at least 5 times a week. I think everyone should do some form of exercise, and stay motivated to do it also. You should stay active, even f it’s just walking up and down your driveway. I try to eat healthy, usually eat salad, fruits and stay drinking water. Even when I go out to eat, I order water with lemon. I’m not saying I always eat healthy, I would be lying… everyone has their cheat days, but after I make sure to work it off.

Please share something people don’t know about you.

A lot of people are shocked when they find out I do not drink, smoke, or party. I just have my standards like everyone else, but I never judge anyone for doing what they like and want to do. Another interesting fact is I am only 5’0, 18, with size 32H breasts and still growing… Wow, right?

Would you change anything about yourself?

Everyone has something that they would change about themselves, but I can honestly say I love who I am and how I look! God made everyone the way he did for a reason, so why try to alter that? I believe that everyone is beautiful and unique in their own way.

What was the meanest rumor ever spread about you?

Oh gosh, what rumor hasn’t been spread about me? From my boobs being fake, to me having an STD, I went through so many rumors. All the girls and my so called “friends” just loved to run their mouth about me, all because of my body, jealousy is not pretty.

Interview with Melody Jordan — The XXX Ballerina

Melody Jordan is a 22-year old model residing in Martinsburg, West Virginia.

How would you introduce yourself to our readers?

My name is Melody Jordan and I have been modeling for a little bit over 2 years. I originally come from WV but have gotten my fame when I moved out to Los Angeles. I am best known for my talent in dance and also my talent in singing. I enjoy writing music as well. I currently live back home with my parents and sister, and plan to restart my career in Los Angeles very soon!

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

I was always on stage or in front of a camera, so modeling wasn’t anything “new” to me. My father is also a photographer, so I spent lots of days posing for him. I started my erotic career when I was 20 years old when I made my MM and an agent contacted me. I never regretted it and I got so many cool opportunities from it!

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

I would love to be a penthouse pet or a playboy bunny one day. But when it comes down to it, I would love to have my own dance school and finish college. I dream of having a family as well.

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

I do mostly lingerie and erotic modeling as most of you may know. I also do video and acting and any sort of dance performance I can get my hands on. I usually work full time but currently I am on a break.

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

My best experience would be when I got to fly to Hawaii. I got an enjoy all expense paid trip while getting paid good $$ to shoot. I will never forget that trip.

My worse experience is anytime a photographer tries to touch me inappropriately …. that’s a no go.

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

I think the most embarrassing thing was when -this may get graphic- I was doing a scene and I had a girl spit in my asshole and I was supposed to squeeze it out and the #2 came out instead….

Is there anything you would change about the modeling industry if you could?

I think photographers need to understand that there is an art to photography and that not anyone with a camera can take photos. I have seen so many request for someone to get their “private collection” and I think it’s disrespectful…especially when there are paid sites, who keep us erotic models working.
I also think MM needs to get over the fact that there is porn.

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 dance…ballet modern and jazz. I have done kickboxing and I love pilates. Lately I have been picking up weights as well.

I am sorta bad when it comes to eating but when I do eat healthy, I follow a strict 4 to 5 times a day meal plan with plenty of protein and organic food. We have to look our best especially if your butt naked!

Please share something people don’t know about you.

I have a guilty please of playing the Sims.

Would you change anything about yourself?

I wish I didn’t gain weight fast!!!!!!

Do you have any fears or phobias?

Yes I have a fear of being alone. I grew up with wanting to find my true love and I hope it happens sooner than later.
