Discovered  By my sister Noémie actually. She really wanted me to do a shoot with her photographer friend Colombe Boileau, and hair & makeup artist Marie-Josée Galibert, so I did and it looked great, we showed the result to Montréal agencies and they loved it. Actually, the very first person that gave me the idea that modeling was something I could do was a booker at a shopping mall in Salt Lake City, she wanted me to come to her office the next day, but I couldn't go because I was leaving for L.A. that day, so I don't even really remember her name... maybe one day I'll find her business card somewhere, I'll let you know.

Best Modelling Moment  Shooting with Mackenzie Duncan, Steven Turpin, and Jenn Finklestein (Dream Team) in the ghettoest "pay-by-the-hour" motel in Chomedy (Laval) in a black and gold bathtub surrounded by mirrors, filled with 3 bottles of bath mousse, popping champagne and showering myself with it and eating the best cupcakes ever. haha Good times. Best part is, the pictures turned out to be my favorite.

Awkward Modelling Moment  At the 2(x)ist show in Singapore (great city btw), I had to just stand in my underwear in a window of the busiest intersection of the city pretending I was lifting weights, while hordes of people were outside clicking, taping, screaming and waving.

Favourite Market  Milan, for the life around the market.

Favourite Model  That must be the hardest question. Only one? I would have to say Adriana Lima as a model.

Most Embassing song on your iPod  Wow, lots to choose from, but I would say "Lo que paso paso - Daddy Yankee". Honorable mention to all my Eiffel 65 songs.
