The trappings of youth and beauty seem like a luxury for twenty-year old, Yamilka Mendez. The Cleveland native was the first pick of HipHopDX.com’s bi-weekly Beauty and Brains section. This lovely Dominican mami was chosen out of fifteen other beautiful competitors. Her hobbies include dancing, drawing, spending time with her family, and talking lots of pictures.
Eva Mendez, Gloria Estefan, J-Lo – all need to step back as this bronzed Piscean beauty (measurements: 35-30-44) stands tall over all competitors (even though she’s 5’4”). Ms. Mendez sits down with HHDX.com as she talks about her college experiences, the difference between meringue and salsa, and why K-Mart has a blue light special on stalkers.
HHDX: So, you went to school at Kent State University – did any professors hit on you?
Yamilka: No, not directly. But, indirectly, yeah they did. It wasn’t really much about what they’d say to me. It was more so what they were looking at.
HHDX: I guess all those Professor Oglebee’s and you had something in common, since you like to look at yourself, too, right?
Yamilka: Yeah, I like to take pictures. I have like a whole bunch of albums on Facebook. Actually, I have about 15 albums.
HHDX: Well, consider this one for the photo collection. Being our first “Beauty and Brains,” who did you tell?
Yamilka: I told my boyfriend. He was very excited for me. I love him.
HHDX: That’s sweet like how T-Pain loves strippers -- have you ever been stripped, before?
Yamilka: No, I would never be a stripper or anything like that [laughs].
HHDX: Guess you don’t have the rhythm, huh?
Yamilka: Yes, I do. I’m Dominican [laughs].
HHDX: Okay, Rhythm Nation – being Dominican and all, what’s the difference between meringue and salsa?
Yamilka: Basically, the beats, the movement that you do with your feet and the rhythm. With salsa, it’s more for the people from the City. Meringue is like an old-world, from the country-type of dance.
HHDX: Well, I know that you’re not trying to be on the next episode of Soul Train. What are your goals?
Yamilka: I want to have a family, of course. I want to get married and have kids. I want to finish school and get my degree in Fashion. In the end, I basically want to be known for something in this life of mines.
HHDX: I wouldn’t mind getting to know you. What are you doing to achieve those goals?
Yamilka: [Laughs] I am currently in a relationship, so that takes care of the family and kids. I’m on my way back into school at either Cleveland State or Kent State University. I am really trying to make sure that I stay on track with school because that is important to me.
HHDX: Okay, I can respect that… Boyfriend is a lucky guy, but I’m pretty sure that our readers and others wouldn’t care. What has been the worst pick-up line delivered after you’ve told someone that you had a man?
Yamilka: I got to think about that a little. Umm, I went to K-Mart and this guy was walking towards me with a bag of oranges. He said that he just knew that God sent him there to K-Mart, only to meet me. Not, necessarily just to get some oranges. He said that God told him to come to K-Mart just to get my number!
HHDX: So, you had the K-Mart stalker in front of your face? What’d you tell him to get rid of the wacko?
Yamilka: I told the fool that I’m glad that you came for the bag of oranges, but you can’t have my number!
HHDX: Oranges aren’t as healthy as they say they are… they make your feet fat. What’s your favorite body part? Yamilka: My thighs. I think that that makes me unique.
HHDX: I’m a booty man, myself. So, why the thighs over the booty?
Yamilka: A booty wouldn’t even look right without any thighs! It’d just look like something poking out. With the thighs, especially mines, you can see all of the curves. I think that it’s more appealing.
HHDX: I’m pretty sure all of it looks good in a tight, form-fitting dress too. Why are you going to school for fashion?
Yamilka: I want to design clothes for woman. No limitation, as I want to make it available for women of all sizes. I am trying to target everyone. That’s why it is important for me to get my degree from school.
HHDX: Sounds like you got a little competitive spirit in you. Besides, J. Lo has a clothing company and I guess it’s doing nicely. If you and her had a Battle of the Booty – who would win?
Yamilka: I don’t know J. Lo that much, so I’d have to say myself [laughs]. I can say and prove that I am 100% natural in all the right places. I can’t say the same for her.
HHDX: Why?
Yamilka: When people get money they change themselves one way or the other. I don’t have any money, so I’d have to say that I’m all-authentic! [laughs]
