Urban Steez: Tell everybody your name and where you are from?

Amanda Michelle from Raleigh North Carolina

Urban Steez: How long have you been modeling?

Amanda: On and off for a couple of years but I guess you can say I’ve been really working on it for the past year now.

Urban Steez: Did you always want to be a model or was it just something that you stumbled upon?

Amanda: I have always enjoyed modeling, but I guess you can say when I finally decided to really get serious was when a photographer found me and my first shoot was amazing. I had so much fun and the photos turned out great! Now that things are falling into place for me I am determined as ever!

Urban Steez: Seems like modeling was meant to be. So what are you doing with yourself besides modeling? (Working, school, etc.)

Amanda: I am currently a student finishing up my Biological Science degree at North Carolina State University.

Urban Steez: Nice. Sexy and Educated! What would you say is your best feature and why?

Amanda: I would say my hair because even though it can be a pain sometimes, its well worth the time. I love my natural curls as well as having the option to wear it straight. I like switching up my look every now and then so it fits me perfect.

Urban Steez: What do guys say is your best feature?

Amanda: I’ve heard a lot of guys complement me on my legs and my skin tone.

Urban Steez: I see, I have a name for every skin tone. I now declare your skin tone “Cinnamon Kisses”! What feature would you say you like the best when it comes to men?

Amanda: That’s a hard one to answer because it all depends on the guy. I always find myself liking different features with every guy. It could be from their confidence or personality to a physical feature such as his eyes, abs, skin, and I can definitely appreciate a nice butt!

Urban Steez: What is your American Dream?

Amanda: I would ultimately want to achieve success in my life by doing what I love and what gives me fulfillment in life. I believe that modeling will take me to the top with endless opportunities for success. When some people work to live or live to work, I want my work to live for me someday.

Urban Steez: What are your hobbies?

Amanda: Sewing, writing, listening to music, dance, sports

Urban Steez: In your opinion what are the negatives and positives of modeling?

Amanda: The positive is that it is so much fun. It’s like acting, where you can transform into different characters or highlight different sides of yourself and capture them in a photo. The negatives are that you are under a microscope, so you are constantly criticized, and if you are not confident and strong enough, it could possibly break you.

Urban Steez: Good Stuff! Name one nasty habit you have without scaring the readers lol?

Amanda: I like taking bath-showers so sometimes I leave my tub clogged. But its unclogged at the moment for the record (haha).

Urban Steez: Lol Okay (For the fellas) what would it take for a guy to win your heart?

Amanda: A guy has to come at me with something different, it has to be genuine and sweet. I am a sucker for cheesy things like flowers and other little symbols of affection. I have a thing for the southern gentleman who takes you out, opens the doors for you and so forth. It’s the little things that mean the most to me.

Urban Steez: Awww… Any advice you want to give to people in your position or things you may have learned in the process of becoming model?

Amanda: Always stick to what you believe in. Don’t let anyone convince you to do something that you are not comfortable with. Always have in mind that these pictures will be here forever and you don’t want to have regrets in the future.

Urban Steez: I likes!! If you had to pick the ultimate photo shoot what and where would it be?

Amanda: I think it would be the hottest thing to be able to shoot while sky diving, I know it sounds crazy, but when was the last time you saw someone do that? And by the way, if you know anyone that can make that happen, let me know!!

Urban Steez: That would be CRAZY, trying to look exotic 20,000 feet in the air.. I see you like thinking out the box, Niiiiice! Any pet peeves?

Amanda: I hate it when I can hear someone sniff up all their snot and swallow it that is absolutely disgusting!

Urban Steez: LOL Ewww, people do that?!?! What music do you have is in your sound system right now?

Amanda: I have a mix of Kanye West, Drake, Lil’Wayne, B.O.B, and J.Cole songs.

Urban Steez: Being that you’re hot and you attract a lot of thirsty males, give us males ONE of your major NO NO’s?

Amanda: Bad hygiene is the ultimate turnoff for me. That includes bad breath!

Urban Steez: HELL YEA it includes bad breath! Any celebrity crushes?

Amanda: Not really, celebrities are regular people too. I do have people crushes though. (lol)

Urban Steez: I can dig that! How can fans, and business heads contact you?
