I personally love Dominican women. The first girl interviewed on this Beauty & Brains was Yamilka Mendez – a beautiful Clevelander who’s Dominican sexiness took me for a loop. Now, I introduce you to Naisha Munoz [pronounced – Ny-isha]. The Manhattan born beauty used her outgoing personality to be placed in multiple spreads for you males to drool over.

The student who’s currently enrolled at Ft. Lauderdale City College as a Journalism/Broadcasting major is on her New York Shit while enjoy the M-I-Ayo weather. The calienté mamacita loves life, family and expects great things out of her career. Beauty & Brains is happy that Ms. Munoz sits down as she talks about being a married model, how her educational aspirations can enhance her career and why infatuation won’t make you a star in an industry you should love.

B&B: Your eyes are very stunning. They say that those are the beholders of beauty. So, with that in mind – what do you find beautiful about yourself and those of the opposite sex?
Naisha Munoz: I am a caring person. I have a good sense of humor. I’m a good friend. I love everyone that’s around me. I give people the benefit of the doubt. I don’t judge anyone. Until they do something wrong. With other people, I like to laugh. Someone who can make me laugh is beautiful to me. I like people who care for others. If I’m willing to bend over backwards for you, I’d like to have that same given back to me.

B&B: You are currently studying Journalism/Broadcasting at [what school]. So, what have you learned that will help you embark onto the next level of your modeling/professional career?
NM: I haven’t really gotten too much into it, yet. I’ve worked at a local radio station here. I came in 2nd place in an apprenticeship. I’ve learned how to be professional. I learned certain technical terms. I’m only a year into it, so I haven’t learned too much about it. But all the experience I’ve had was through radio. I worked at that apprenticeship and Internet radio. As far as furthering my career, it’s been based on my hard work. Working behind the camera is hard, because that’s not something that I want to do. I want to be in front of the camera. As far as the industry, there are so many woman trying to get into broadcasting. That’s challenging in the real world. Modeling is not the main thing that I want to focus on, I’m just using it as a door. If it takes me somewhere, that’s fine, but I really want to be a correspondent.

B&B: A negative to being a Pisces is that they are easily lied to because they so want to believe. If this attribute is true of Pisces – what has been the worst lie a person in the industry has told you that you believed?
NM: When I first started doing radio, I was 17 years-old. I was so gassed, they wanted me to be in a major artist’s video. They said that they were going to go on tour and I dropped out of HS, went to night school, so I could speed up the process so I could go on the tour. They took me to the studio and did a hook for them and it was all bullshit. As far as that certain individual, I’ve never heard of him again. The major artist that he was with – another guy got him out the box. Continued on page 2 »
