Without an education you can only go so far, take it from me, I dropped out of school to pursue my dreams, I felt out of place not knowing about certain things, not being able to deal with certain situations etc. Being a model I had to become business savvy to be able to deal with my finances etc.  I was very insecure with not having enough education and decided to get my start by going to night school and getting my GED.  I am planning on attending College at a certain point, I’m a little nervous but I can and you can do anything if you put your mind to it!  You all did just that and now you are on your way to College or University preparing yourselves for the future ahead! You should be so proud of your accomplishments!

I was so blessed to have the opportunity to meet the KING himself.  I will never forget that moment for the rest of my life.  I was chosen to attend The Fifth Element premier at the Cannes Film Festival as Jean Paul Gautiers’ date, the next day Mr. Gautier informed me that we were invited to attend the premier for Michaels video “Ghosts”.  I brought my disposable camera ( yes people DISPOSABLE) and took my seat in the 2nd row centre.  Soon there was a lot of mayhem, people jumped out of their seats running to get a picture with Michael who was being swarmed by mad security.  The security escorted Mr. Jackson to his seat and I almost had a heart attack, it was right in the front row centre behind me!

Once he settled in and the lights went dim, I began to tap him on his shoulder, he would turn around and smile, then speaking in his low boy like voice he said  to me,”Hi pretty, are you having a good time”?  I couldn’t speak but I was snapping away with my disposable camera.  Through out the night, I tapped him quite a few more times and took quite a few more pictures, each and every time he would laugh asking if “I was enjoying myself”.  After the premier, he was willing to take a picture with me, while about to do so a crowd of people rushed him and he had to leave immediately due to security reasons.  The last time I saw Mr. Jackson was while he was being taken away from beside me, the last thing he said to me was,”I’m sorry pretty girl, I hope you still had fun”. That was the day I met the KING and I continue to cherish it to this very sad day.

Thank you Mr. Jackson for THRILLING us with your music!
Thank you Mr. Jackson for being the BADDEST dancer!
Thank you Mr. Jackson for INSPIRING so many generations to follow your footsteps
Thank you Mr. Jackson for THE WAY YOU MADE ME FEEL that day in France
Thank you Mr. Jackson for making us SCREAM for more!

May god rest your beautiful soul!

When in NY I look forward to my weekly mentoring program with the D.A.N.I House kids.  A lot of these kids have been through some of the toughest life words could not describe.  I want to thank Christian for introducing me to the mother of the house Miss Bell and these wonderful talented beautiful kids that I look forward to seeing every chance I get.  You guys are my supermodels!!

Recently, I was invited as a guest to mentor these aspiring models in Barbados.  It was a special fundraiser to raise funds so these model hopefuls would have the opportunity to come to Canada and get signed to an agency.  I am happy to say some of them are in Canada now and quite a few of them got signed to some of the prestigious agencies in Canada.  Congratulations girls!  When you dream and work hard to that goals you will be rewarded, congratulations on not giving up!
