Where do you see yourself in the entertainment industry?
I definitely wish to become a Victoria’s Secret model. I want to do major campaigns and travel the world, and make my mark in the modeling world. I want to make my parents proud.

I got naked for an implied photoshoot.

She doesn’t know I model.

What would you do with a million dollars?
Well I would lose half it to taxes… so I’m left with half a million to pay off my car, buy my parents a house, then invest the rest. I’m pretty thrifty.

One night I did about 50 shots and got pretty buzzed with some girlfriends and went topless on a beach.

Yes I’m single, but my heart is taken by Anderson Cooper.

What type of guy do you like?
I’m a chubby chaser. 

Why do you like chubby guys?
Have you ever cuddle with a fat person? Its like sitting in a bean bag chair and you fall deep asleep like sleeping beauty. So comfy. They are like an adorable marshmallow that you cuddle with.

What are your biggest turn-offs?
Cheating, mean people, and show offs.

What’s the funniest pick-up line a guy has tried to use on you?
“I love you like a love song baby.” I’ve been mistaken a lot for Selena Gomez.
