Everyone needs to take a chill pill and enjoy my next model profile!

A lot of bull shit has happened since my last post. And it actually goes back to the fact that no matter how many years of democracy we have had...we are still as racist as shit!

I have been an outspoken advocate of not judging models by their appearance. The old mind set that models  have great bodies but shit for brains is quite frankly ludacris, and I have tried to point this out. But no matter how hard I have worked at this, there is always someone who will say some stupid shit and regress mankind's thought process.

Former FHM top model winner Jessica Leandra Dos Santos was shopping in a supermarket two weeks ago and was harassed by a worker from the supermarket. He threw her a few wolf whistles and asked if she would be his weekend special. Apparently he was very "up in her face about it". Lord alone knows how she dealt with the situation at the supermarket but she got home and left a tirade of racial slurs on Twitter calling the man the K word (which is unacceptable in South Africa and is Arabic for non believer).

In all honesty she should have known better. You know the history of the country....dont use that word. She would have been better off slapping the man or kicking him in the balls, which he deserved.

Then after that...another model...Tshidi Thamane (who was obviously not happy with Dos Santos) came out on Twitter and caused a racial war by saying she wished all white people were killed when Peter Mokaba sang "Kill the Boer" during apartheid.

PEOPLE! Do you guys not believe in making love and not war? What's Blood Got To Do With It? Say what you want to about Dos Santos and call her actions unacceptable and MOVE ON!

But just like the irresponsible journalists who have destroyed the reputation of all others...we need to remember that these aggrivators are the minority and that there are some very intelligent and eloquent people out there.

To prove this I have unearthed more stunning talent.

Question 1

Billy Ocean was thinking of me when he sang African Queen

Please discuss how your parents feel about your modelling? Do they ask you every day when you are going to get a real job?

When it comes to my parents in terms of my modeling career they have been very supportive, especially my father. He always tries to make me feel better when things dont go well ,telling me to be patient. And they never ask such questions, that when am I going find a real job because they know my passion, they know whats right for me. In fact, they keep telling me to hug on there and wait for my opportunity to bloom, to shine and make my dream come true.

Question 2
Culturally there is a major difference between White and African cultures and how parents relate to their kids. How did your parents react the first time you told them you want to do this?

My parents were very fascinated when they first heard me sharing my dream of becoming a model with them because I have been doing it since I was young. I am the former Miss VP, former Miss Mohodi and I participated in many modelling competitions during my childhood. They just said we saw it coming and my dad said go get it my dear ,make your dream come true.

Question 3
What is your take on the recent racial wars which have erupted over twitter and facebook? Please discuss.

My take on the racial wars is simple...they must just get a grip. South Africa has come a long way ,so people must wake up n realise that these country is for us all. Democracy is here to stay. They must revisit the history of the country so that they can know what to say and what not to say.

Question 4
How would you have reacted if you were confronted by a similar situation?


It would have been a very traumatic event. It would have broken my confidence a bit but in the end I would have found a way to put everything behind me.

Question 5
What inspired you to go into modelling?


The natural passion I have and my role models Naomi Campell, Basetsana Khumalo, Bonang Mateba and Tyra Banks.

Question 6
How does your boyfriend feel about your modelling career and how did he react the first time you broke the news to him?


My boyfrnd was not surprised at all because he knew me from my childhood as we all attended the same school. He knew that I had passion for modeling so he is very supportive and always encouraging me not to lose hope and to be patient. When I told him that I wanted to go deep into modeling he just said go for it.

Question 7
Do you struggle with drunken guys hitting on you in bars and how do you let them down?

Guys are always problematic, but I just ignore them.Its the way some men are like when they see a woman its like the see thier sex toys, but I dont take them serious ...

Quickies
Question 8
Food: Italian or Indian?

Italian food do for me

Question 9
Cars: American, German or Japenese?


German...BMW or a Mercedes Benz

Question 10
First Date: Dinner and Movies or Picnic in the park?


Dinner and movies

Question 11
When is it acceptable to be drunk in front of your man and is he going to get action that night?


Unfortunately my man and I dont drink alcohol.

Question 12
Who would win in a pillow fight between yourself and Adele Coetzee? And would this fight take place fully clothed or in revealing bikini’s?


I would win the pilow fight ,with a revealing bikini.

Question 13
And finally, how do feel about the boys at the Noord Street taxi rank and how they act towards woman when they lose their minds every now and again?


What the boys at the  Noord Street Taxi Rank are doing is nonsensic and totally unacceptable in a democartic civilized country like our own. They must get a grip and grow up. Man up and stop acting like barbarians. I dont take them seriously mentally. I doubt thier mental capacity allows them to act normally.

Nothing like taking things a bit rustic.

In other news. Racism seems to be prevalent in school rugby as well. 

One of the country's top rugby school made headlines this week for the wrong reasons. DR EG Jansen was playing in a Beeld trophy rugby match against Hoerskool Kempton Park. EG Jansen lost in the last seconds of the game when Kempton Park defended like Trojans.

After the whistle, the assistant coach from EG Jansen went and gave the referee an earful. He then walked away and came back at the referee who had his back turned and shoulder charged him. What made the situation worse is that EG Jansen is an Afrikaans school with no black players in the team, and the coach shoulder charged a BLACK referee. 

There goes his rugby coaching career all because he made a poor decision. Shoulder charging a white ref is enough to get him suspended or fired, but the fact that he was a black ref made the situation worse.
