Katyana on Modeling
When did you start modeling?
3 years ago.
What do you like most about being a model?
When I do modeling I use acting and dance. This allows me to to do what I love.
Any interesting or exotic locations you have been on as a model?
Not just as a model, but as a dancer and actress. I have been to Greece, Africa, Italia, and many more.
Have you had any strange requests as a model?
Of course, adult film shoots, escort, and other things really disgusting requests; now nothing can really surprise me.
From all the shoots you have done, any most memorable experiences?
Elle Magazine.
How do you find time to balance a modeling life and normal life?
I am not Tyra Banks so don't worry I find the time, I just love what I do and I can't stop. Sometimes I know that I need to relax but it's difficult for me to stop doing that is my passion…(laughing.).
Janice Dickensen or Tyra Banks, who would kick whose azz?
Tyra Banks because she can be a little ghetto when she wants. She's crazy, I love her.
How do you feel about meeting people who love your work as a model?
I am a little shy but I like that about myself. I love it when people talk to me about what they feel when they look at my pictures. When people say, “You are beautiful!” I am happy, but I think maybe I missed something because I really want my pictures to be different.
Do you have any advice to models that are trying to get into the business or more exposure?
Yes, be careful of fake photographers, agencies.., If you're asked to do one photo-shoot with one really good photographer you could pay. If the photographer request you for one photo-shoot and he could pay you, it's up to you. Sometimes (when you start) it's just an exchange. If one agency wants you, this is FREE, you don't have to pay anything. Network with other models...keep close to your craft.
As a model you must remain cut, how do you keep your body in shape?
Dance and kick boxing baby! (Watch out fakers, this woman knows how to Kick Ass!)

Missy Elliot...need I say more.
If I plugged into your iPod, or turned on your stereo, what would I hear? Are you into a variety or strictly one style?
Yes, since I'm a dancer, so I love music. You could hear a lot of different styles in my stereo. Sean Paul, Cecil', Elephant Man - when I shake my body…(laughing); Erika Badu, Malia, Corinne Bailey Rae at home; Aretha Franklin, Gospel or Hip-Hop in the morning; Some French song when I have the blues….

I don't have one but a lot, all music videos with good good, dancers and choreography.

One Greek song by Xryspa (http://www.myspace.com/hryspa). I love it because I remember Greece and I had a lot of wonderful moments there.
A must to hang out with you; what music does someone need to bring?
I don't care, I have to like the person in order to to hang out with them. And that's it.
Are tattoos and piercing Rock and Roll? Do you have any, if so; is there a story behind them?
Piercing: nose, tongue, belly and somewhere you can't see… (laughing). I did it because I like it, it's just personal and if I don't want any more, I will take it off. I did get my first one when I was 14 years old.

The Da Vinci Code. I liked because there are a lot of twists and turns. (Now the movies is on DVD).
