How were you discovered?
Well I wasn’t exactly “discovered” I took all sorts of lessons and classes since the age of 5 and my first modeling photo shoot I was 8 years old.
Observers can see from your portfolio the progression you have made as a model; can you tell us where you have improved and what you have learned?
You learn with every photo shoot you do and grow in your craft. Working with experienced photographers I’ve learned from them: better posing, positioning and facial expressions. Also you get higher quality and better images.
Your features are outstanding and natural, beautiful face, skin, shape, and just an overall unique look. I’m sure you get asked often to explain your heritage but where do the curves and features come from and how do you stay in shape?
I am a mixed Latina from a Cuban & Spanish father and Puerto Rican mother and born in the NYC. I guess a good combination of my parents genes made me! Lol. I used to stay in shape easily when I was a trained dancer. Now I go to the gym and work out my entire body several times a week. It’s important to take care of your body and to stay active.
How have you been able to balance your daily life and occupation with modeling and what keeps you grounded?
It’s a balancing act when you do a lot of different things like I do. All you can do is stay organized and professional and do the best you can. Just handle your business and prioritize.
What kind of modeling or work do you enjoy the most?
I think honestly for me my favorite was Pageantry and Promotional modeling because it involves all of you and how u present yourself and speak. But I enjoy everything actually, there’s pros and cons in everything.
Your resume continues to grow, please tell our readers some of the work you have completed and where they have seen and will see you?
I’ve come out in Sweets Magazine Issue #13, I have a 6 page spread there and I have come out in the first print edition of Gorgeous Magazine. I’ve done some more music videos such as Lloyd Banks ft. Lloyd “Any Girl”. I hope to finally get my personal website up: http://www.JeniceMarie.com. I have more magazine features coming out soon and to continue to bigger and better things!
You were the first model KUSH chose as a Kushion, the 1st guest ever on Kush Radio and our first collaboration with you turns out being a shoot for Sweets Mag, tell us what you think has made you a hot commodity?
Well first off Thank you and I am much honored to be your first! Aww I’m not such a hot commodity – yet, LOL. There are things that I am happy about what I have done and am doing but I have a ways to go. I’m proud of my accomplishments and that people are eager to work with me.
You are intelligent and beautiful and as a model expected to be confident, but can you tell us about a time during your modeling career when you were nervous and how you dealt with it?
I am always a little nervous! It’s to exude confidence even when internally you are a unsure, that’s only natural. You’ve just got to take a deep breath and do it and not be afraid or upset to hear a no or something you don’t want to. It happens many times in this game, you just got to take it with grace and move on to the next.
People would be surprised to know that ___________?
That I am a NJ state EMT.
What is the best advice you have received since you began your modeling career?
Don’t be afraid to listen and grow from constructive criticism. Learn from all of your experiences, good and the bad. And that you’ll hear a lot of No’s more then Yes’s, don’t let that get to you or take it too personal.
You’ve got front row tickets to see your favorite artist. Who is it and why?
It would have to be Lady Gaga. I am dying to see a live performance of hers. She is so creative and different. She embodies truly what it is to be an artist. I really like her as a person and performer.
Your favorite getaway spot?
Anywhere quiet desolate with a beach, many Caribbean islands I enjoy.
How does Hip Hop music impact your daily life and your work? What is your favorite song of the moment?
I love hip hop music and pretty much I like something in every genera of music. Music is the soundtrack of my life; it’s a big part of me. One of my favorite songs of the moment is Jamie Foxx ft. Drake “Fall for your type”.
24 hours to do whatever Jenice wants, wherever Jenice wants to be, where and what do we find you doing?
LOL, makes me think of the song “24 hours to live”. Hmmm I would run amuck and try to accomplish in that time what I want to before I die. I’d be mostly with friends and family saying goodbye and preparing for the next life.
When and what makes you feel beautiful and sexy?
Simply just being happy.
What’s the craziest thing a fan/admirer has done to get your attention?
I’ve had some wierdos harass me. I try to be nice but nothing to crazy or out of had thank God.
Who have you enjoyed working with the most? And name someone you would love to work with?
A photographer who I really enjoy working with is C.E Wiley. He’s been a great friend and mentor and most importantly he is very professional when it comes to working. I also really like the shoot I did with MJ Flix, I love his work and would definitely work with him again. I really admire and love Maya Guez’s art. I am dying to work with her, she is amazing. And there are many other photographers that I look forward to be working with in the future as well.
What should we expect to see you doing in the near future?
Who knows sky is the limit! I am open to whatever opportunities that come my way and to make the best of it!
Any parting words or people you would like to thank?
Thanks always to Kush for all the love!

How were you discovered?
Well I met Kush DVD from networking and grinding through FB and Twitter and then they contacted me.
What inspired you to pursue modeling?
My love for fashion, I love everything about modeling because for me its a form of being creative and expressing yourself and clearly everyone in my family draws and I can’t lol. I pursued acting first it, but it didn’t take off as quick.
You have an outstanding hourglass figure, where do the curves come from and how do you stay in shape?
Well thank you & my curves I must give thanks to GOD and my mother although I stole hers…lol ((sighs)) as far as keeping in shape I can admit I need a personal trainer & self discipline but as for now water and small meal portions… smh
Which of your features attract the most attention?
Wow.. its a battle between my ass & face! Lol if I gotta choose my ass won!!
What kind of shoots/work do you enjoy the most?
I enjoy glamor, fashion and concept shoots! I hope to book commercial and print ad work, tear-sheets etc. I Love it all as long as it’s within my limits… 😉
What are some of your credits ?
Well I’ve done about 10 fashions shows this year between NJ and NY. I’ve hosted events and artist in-store signings like Trey Songz. I’ve done about 6 or 7 upcoming artist videos, other promotional jobs and I also do make-up which I’ve recently done for author Terese Smauldon. Just grinding to get me noticed & more paid jobs because I am definitely worth it.
Tell us some of your long term goals….
My long term goals are to become successful period no matter what I do! What do I love to do.. besides modeling, I love shopping and fashion so I want to pursue my degree in Fashion Merchandising & Mgmt. I want to eventually start a few businesses and definitely help other models reach their goals.
Do you have any tattoos or piercings?
Yeah I have 4 tattoos; my daughter’s name my 1st, 2nd SexyMa the name I got before thinking to model, 3rd Aquarius on my neck which didn’t hurt at all and 4th was my foot with a vine of rainbow hearts!! That shit hurt by the way!! Lol
Your beauty can easily be intimidating, but have you ever been afraid/intimidated before a shoot?
Ummm not really !! At first I refused to wear makeup and that didn’t work, I’ve never been to a modeling school or signed with an agency so everything I do is me trying to perfect it Naturally. I can definitely say now I am much more confident than in the beginning and now know what I do/don’t wanna represent in the modeling industry. I don’t judge what others do but I know myself and I am not easily persuaded, I’ve been told I won’t make it and that’s just another opinion in one ear out the other.
People would be surprised to know that ___________?
My sexual preference is women and that I have a daughter.
Your idea of relaxing is?
Lol… since I know whats good for me I’ll just say watching a good movie in my bed 
if you know me or get to, then you know the rest.
You’ve got front row tickets to see your favorite artist. Who is it and why?
Hmmmm that’s hard but I would say T.I because he’s a very inspirational rapper I love his music, personality and he’s REAL and that’s hard to find!!
Your favorite getaway spot?
Anywhere my sister @MaraSkyeDesigns is at…currently GA which is perfect!!
How does Hip Hop music impact your daily life and your work? Whats your favorite song of the moment?
Wow Hip Hop and music as a whole impacts me in so many ways… I am good at pinpointing great music and artists. I actually catch myself listening to Hip Hop more than R&B! Its the beats that get me goin and motivated! I love good music and my fav song is everything out that’s a good package like…
What are your turnons?
Intelligence, common sense, confidence, motivation & swag! When you contain all of those you have balance and a great foundation for a total package.
What are your turnoffs?
Ignorance, Close Minded individuals, people who can’t dress, haters or cocky people that just don’t qualify to behave in any way other than humble… lol oh & thirsty men. I feel if you got swag you shouldn’t have to chase anything not even your dreams!!
What’s the craziest thing a fan/admirer has done to get your attention?
Omg I was going into the bodega to get an Arizona Sweet tea and he came in and followed me to the fridge and says “excuse me mam but who are you? You gotta be someone cause you just look too good… can I get your autograph?!” I just held my laugh and blush in and gently responded “I’m no celebrity yet hun I just model…” I thought that was cute and it gave me that boost like damn I can imagine when I really get it poppin in so many positive ways!
Who have you enjoyed working with the most? And name someone you would love to work with?
The most so far… I definitely gotta say KatWalk Katerers a company I just began working with in July. Their movement and intentions are GREAT!! Hmmm I would love to work with my favorite model Esther Baxter or another new inspiration Bobbi Jo model/actress as far as a photographer, I wanna work with Maya Guez or Howard Huang their work is HOT!!
The most sensual shoot you’ve ever done and what made it so sexy?
I can’t say I’ve done your average sensual shoot but the most for me is doing a collab shoot for an upcoming male artist in 2pc lingerie and another female model. It was sexy because we had to portray we were jealous of his attention…lol and she got completely naked for it nothing raunchy… no further comment lol
What should we expect to see you doing in the near future?
Being in your favorite classy yet sexy videos, magazines, DVDs like KushDvd, videos as the principal girl, commercials and hopefully someday movies!!
