    Many people would want to be a model. Modeling can be financially rewarding and can also provide many other benefits. Many find the profession exciting and enjoy the varied experiences while exploring new cultures/countries, meeting new people and most importantly being part of the fascinating fashion industry.

Modeling is not only about smiles, sweet face and beautiful body; your patience, listening skills and general altitude are very important. On my journey for discovering new fresh talents, I came across this pretty, lovely, gorgeous good looking, fine looking striking sexy lady by name Carene Nforbinson who is into modeling.

Sometimes, I can't wait for that 2 dayz to reach, I get so excited like a kid lol.. I often schedule it for Saturday, so I can relax and eat at home all day lol crazy!

Q19........What is the most difficult thing you had endured in your career?..........
I rem doing this bikini shoot year ago. During hair and make up,  i kept thinking "how am i gonna pull dis off?" I was so terrified  i kept drinking water to help me cool off lol, water didn't do the magic.

Next, i asked for a hot pop song to help JumpStart my energy, that too didn't do the trick lol. Then i told myself, if anybody can do it, i can do it. When make-up and hair was over, at that point i knew i had no choice because everyone was waiting on me. I Took off my robe,  and there were about close to 10 pple,  just standg there and starring at me.

My palms were sweating and my heart was racing so fast,  but i had no choice, i had 2 do it. I gathered myself and bravely walked pass'em 'cos you don't wanna give them the impression that, you don't know what you're doing and that you're not up to the task", as i walked pass n stood infront of d camera, it was so uncom4table @ 1st,  but after a couple of flicks, i then started flipping my hair 4rm Left n right lol n dat had every1 laughing out loud.

 

 It was tremendously nerve wracking, but an amazing experience. Also last yr summer, 'thru my then, makeup artist' i got to play extra and help out behind d scenes of an independent American movie 'A Christmas Promise' dat was suppose 2 air on lifetime movie networks.  

 

There, i met dis man n woman dat looked so

finely perfect n soooo familiar. Thruout,  i kept starring at dem while asking myself 'Wusai i don c dis man n dis woman eyy??" Lol Cos dey looked sooooo familiar but i cldnt place my finger on it, as 2 where i had seen dem. Thruout this time, it didn't still occur 2 me dat, dat was Charisma Carpenter from

the movie "the expendables n Patrick Muldoon.

Then, i cornered my mkup artist n asked.. n she replied That's Charisma! Charisma Carpenter from the expendables n dat left me in awe. Then, she gave me a rundown,  of all of Charisma n Patrick's movies both on TV shows n on d big screen. That was a terrifying, yet amazing mind blowing, experience, 2 witness these talented Hollywood actors, practice lines in front of u,  change wardrobes for diff scenes, the camera crew......n all dat goes on set of a huge movie production. I had fun....n the Actors themselves were soooo cool.

Q20........Any celeb. Crushes, or are u in a relationship?..........
Hahaha No celeb crushes (Smiling). I'm in a relationship n I have never been this happy.

Q21....Do you have some other hidden talent?......... I sing, n nobody knows dat i sing lol. Ihve been singing since i was 9, in the choir n anywhere any1 could hear me sing. Thats my passion. Presently, I'm in the church choir. My biggest work now is, taking it out on a professional level which is still in the works. Can't wait....... (Smiles...
