Taz- First off, introduce yourself to those that are not familiar with you....
Shana- Hello everyone my name is Shana Lee Mena stage name is Adoreshana. I'm an upcoming model and here's a lil bit about myself.
Taz- Where you representing?
Shana- South Bronx
Taz- South Bronx all day! Nationality?
Shana-
Parent are from Dominican republic. I was born in Manhattan NY. raise in B-K my younger years and moved to the Bronx where i feel its my home.
Taz- Nice. What got you started on being a model?
Shana- What got me started on being a model was everyone complimenting me on my body and some of the features I have. that's when I said you know what let me give it a shot. Since I was 5 yrs old. I always wanted to be a face on a billboard. my mom of course was behind me all the way so i said why not? I joined barbizon modeling school to get some more tips after, did a few runway shows and print work. also signed on with one source talent where my first day interviewed I got my first job as a celeb gift escort at the 2008 z100 gift lounge. Shortly I resigned from one source because I felt it was a scam and was hearing to much negative feedback about them. Don't get me wrong they say in modeling you shouldn't have to pay for nothing but nothing in this world is free and in order to get great pictures, clothes, etc your going to have to come out your pocket. I definitely don't mind spending but I don't appreciate a company or someone trying to take advantage of my drive and determination for modeling. Trying to sell me dreams that will never come true. Theres alot of modeling scams out there so just be careful ladies and gents!
Taz- Ok ok. Now are u the average or above average female when it comes to how u look?
Shana- When it comes to how I look, I feel no one is perfect nor should anyone feel there better than the next because theres always going to be someone out there that looks better or worst then you. I love myself I love the way I look. I think I'm a good size 120lbs 5'5 brown eye girl. I do got the six pack popping lol. But uh, I appreciate all the good feedback I get from everyone in the business and just friends or supporters. Thank you.
Taz- OK ms six pack, what's your measurements
Shana- waist: 25, bust/cup: 34b, hips: 36, dress size 2, shoe size: 7
Taz- Lets see how many guys is quick to holla lol. What makes u stand out from the rest?
Shana- What makes me stand out from the rest is my features. My full lips, cant lie I got money offers just for a kiss on the cheek, my nice thick thighs, my light skin complexion and nice skin. Always humble love to laugh Not a stuck up model at all..."Girl humble ya self"
Taz- Word? money to get a kiss on the cheek INTERESTING lol.How many shows have u done or photo sessions have you went through so far?
Shana- Shows I have done a few. Ent. Vibes Rip The Runway which you can catch on ch.68 (bx net), Anthony Eastwick fashion shows, Harlem Ink Fashion show, etc...print work I try to do at least one every week. even if my pics are not edit I really don't mind because they get to see me for me. Not da extra needed cover ups or extra chest or butt they usually give peoples in there pics. done eye candy projects, lingerie, swimwear,denim,glamour, casual you name it. "I really don't think theres a limit on what you can do as long as you put your mind to it & most def. have the body for it".
Taz- What would u say to the younger audience that want to grow up and be models?
Shana- Most Importantly "BE CAREFUL" esp. as a female there are a lot of pervs & scams out there. 2nd Enjoy & Love what you do. If you don't enjoy it don't even start it. 3rd Listen and take advice from people you feel is just trying to help you but do what makes you feel comfortable. Last but not least "Always stay confident no matter who's around and bring personality you might not be the best looking person at the casting but your personality can blow someones mind"
Taz- How cute was that lol. good advise Shana. How do you feel about models that go over the line as far as nudity pix to be seen?
Shana- As far as over the line I don't consider it that. I'll say "to each is own" of course I wouldn't just pose for nudity just like that maybe if i was called in for playboy and getting payed alot why not? every playboy bunny is successful yet respected because there confident and there getting payed for what they love to do. But uh I rather not do nudity. the furthest I will go is Lingerie "A tease isn't dat bad"
Taz- HMMM very interesting. What jobs are you available for?
Shana- i don't like to limit myself so I'm available for anything. love to try new things and meet new people. Music videos, print, runway,host,etc
Taz- I'm gonna holla for some videos then lol. Now a lil more personal for the fellas that are DYING to know.. are you currently seeing anyone special?
Shana- Feellllazzzzzz lollll I am single but not ready to mingle. I'm into my modeling as well as my day job as an after school teacher. Had some relationships in the past where if I do go out with someone it cant just be anyone. Has to be someone about something in life, ready for a ride because I'm definitely one. Great personality, outgoing smart and smell good. I do date tho. theres nothing wrong with that right?
Taz- Besides modeling is there any other talent you might have?
Shana- Yes I have always been into fashion. I'm coming up with my own fashion line for the ladies that will include, shoes, bags, and shirts. so look out for that. also love poetry, sports such as volleyball, softball..very into painting as well. on my spare time I like to do nails & hair. you can basically say I can do it all =)
