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?
I was discovered through a local sports radio station in Denver. They were looking for promotional models. I entered a contest and was selected.
What inspired you to pursue modeling? And what obstacles have you dealt with since you began?
I’ve always wanted to model, but it was difficult because there was one category of modeling which was high fashion modeling. For High Fashion Modeling, you have to be both tall and very lean. So I never really pursued it. Then later down the line I began to see models with curves getting lead roles in music videos, covers in magazines, and I though maybe I can do this. An obstacle that I have to deal with is making sure that I am in shape. People think that just because you have a big butt, or a large chest that you can do urban glamor modeling. That is NOT true. You still have to be in shape. It’s hard work!
You have a gorgeous face and an outstanding figure, where do your curves and features come from and how do you stay in shape?
Thank you! My curves come from my mother’s side of the family. All of the women are very voluptuous and curvy. My features are a cross between my African American and Hispanic background. I stay in shape by working out 4-5 days a week. I do a lot of running/cardio and weight training. I also try to watch what I eat.
Which of your features attract the most attention?
That’s a tough one, but I get more comments about my smile than any other physical feature.
What kind of shoots/work do you enjoy the most?
I enjoy photo shoots outdoors with a theme. I love the outdoors because nothing captures true beauty like natural light.

Along with several online features
You are managed by Stallion Management, Elke The Stallion’s company, what’s it like to be a part of her stable of models?
It has been fantastic! I have nothing but love for all of the Stallion Models. We’re like a family. Elke is a legend in this industry. She is a a very intelligent business woman and I am so happy to have someone like her in my corner. She has taught me so much!
Do you have any tattoos or piercings? If so what do your tattoos mean?
Yes I do I have a few piercings and 3 tattoos. One of my tattoo is my name. the others are just designs. Looking to get one more!
Models are taught to exude confidence and composure, but have you ever been afraid or nervous before a shoot?
Sometimes before a shoot I may get a little nervous especially if I am working with a new photographer. However as soon as I step in from of that camera, it all just goes away. I’m like a light switch.
People would be surprised to know that __________?
I have a tiny voice.
What advice can you offer to a young lady looking to follow in your footsteps?
I would say you have to have a plan. Figure out what exactly you are trying to accomplish in this business in the long run. Never forget that this is a business, so I suggest taking some time to learn as much as you can about it.
You’ve got front row tickets to see your favorite artist. Who is it and why?
Another tough question… I would love to see Tre Songz, Donnell Jones, or Raheem DeVaughn
Your favorite getaway spot?
I LOVE Costa Rica!
How does Hip Hop music impact your daily life and your work? Whats your favorite song of the moment?
I feel that Urban Glamor modeling and Hip Hop go Hand in Hand. This industry was built on Hip Hop. My favorite Hip Hop song of the moment is “Fancy” By Drake f/T.I. and Swizz Beatz
What are your turnons?
Confidence, a beautiful smile, a great sense of humor, intelligence, and spirituality. Also being active (working out, playing recreational sports etc) and has strong family values. All Major turnons!
What are your turnoffs?
I can not stand rudeness. I am turned off by liars, jealousy and insecurity, body odor and bad breath.
What’s the craziest thing a fan has done to get your attention?
It’s pretty gross so I’d rather not say! LOL
Who have you enjoyed working with the most? And name someone you would love to work with?
I can not just pin point one person so I’ll name a few. I always enjoy working with James Rich, Nureign, Da RealSafado,and Torriam. Wow and there are so many more. A few people I would love to work with are Facet Studios, Del Anthony, Slick Force, and Mya Guez.
I’ve noticed that modeling makes many ladies very image conscious, how do you maintain your confidence through it all?
The key to my confidence is that I truly know who I am. I also surround myself with positive and honest people that have my best interest at heart. That makes all the difference in the world.
What should we expect to see you doing in the near future?
I will be doing more magazine features, some DVD projects, hosting events across the country, and much much more! The sky is the limit! :o)
Any parting words or people you would like to thank?
I would first like to thank Kush DVD for taking the time to feature me. It truly means a lot! I would also like to thank my fans for being so supportive. There is so much more to come!
