Music Video for 'Dinosaur' by Jax Panik: I'm gonna be in it!

Last week my friend sent me an sms, asking me to urgently visit the Jax Panik Facebook fan page, because they were on a search to find a hot girl for their music video. The only requirements were that she has to be over 18 and live in Cape Town. Oh, and willing to 'show skin'. Easy enough. Needless to say, I signed up. Then, just when I thought my girls' weekend couldn't get any better, I got news that I was short-listed! Not thinking that I would get the part - the other girls either had experience in music videos or were full-time models - I had already forgotten about it all. Yesterday afternoon the producer of the music video called and gave me the good news. I'm going to be playing 'the hottie' in a music video for Jax Panik's new song, Dinosaur. This really made my day. My year!

We're shooting on Sunday and apparently I'm wearing very little. Don't worry my lovelies, I will do the 'behind-the-scenes thang' for you. Like I always do. Thus far I only know that I need to dance provocatively in front of a green-screen. Nervous much? You bet.

Jax Panik really is amazing and their music has a total different vibe than any other South African artist. Get Up is one of my favourite songs - check out the hot video! Their music is always played on 5FM, music videos are shown on MK and they even received an MTV award! Rad. Check out their website too!

Ok, I'm off to Woodstock to meet the cool gang and producers!
I can be your dinosaur. I can make you roooaaar!

My upcoming photo shoot for a new label at YDE

Today I’m going for another photo shoot. It’s my most favourite thing to do in the world! I’m an amateur-blogger and a wannabe-model, so why do I do what I do? Simply because I love it. That’s it. I can’t be a full time model with photo shoots and interviews lined up and I can’t be an established blogger with a list of sponsors, so I’ll simply do bits of each. I might not get paid for the advertising I do for others and most of the time photos are the only thing I get to take home from a hard day’s shoot. But you know what? I always see the glass as half full. I’m having the time of my life. I’m getting so much exposure and a wonderful experience! I’m not only meeting extremely talented people, but I get to work with them too. Make-up artists, photographers, models, actors, stylists and really cool events – who can say no to this?

My advice is always: When opportunity comes knocking, make sure you open that door!

Before I get all philosophical on you, let me get back to my exciting news. I’m going to spend my day with photographer, Drikus Le Roux, and I will finally get to work with Eloise Dreyer for a photo shoot done for a new label at YDE. For a change, my photo shoot will have an actual purpose (and I will be wearing clothes)! Another part I'm looking forward to? I'm going to be posing with the cutest 'models' ever. Furry rabbits. It will tie in with the whole Alice in Wonderland theme they're planning. I cannot wait to play dress-up.

Watch this space for behind-the-scenes stuff and to read more about the new label. Also follow me and Eloise on Twitter today for tweets about the shoot and perhaps a Twitpic! Remember, you saw it here first.

Nothing cheers me up like JUICY lingerie shopping!

Just like any girl out there, I love feeling sexy and one way to do it is by wearing sexy lingerie! I decided that it was time I stop feeling sorry for myself (being single sucks if you're still in stage 1) and get some retail therapy. And it worked.

These are also the lingerie I've chosen for my shoot with Robert Miller which takes place in the next 2 days! We're actually doing the shoot for the NoMU poster campaign (for which I will be wearing a playboy bunny suit), but we've decided to do lingerie too, just for fun! Heck, I'm only young once.  Lingerie by Kangol and Temptations.

Visit my blog real soon to read all about the behind-the-scenes stuff! I will take as many pictures as possible. After the shoot, I shall be rewarding myself with the biggest and most calorie-filled pizza money can buy!

My Juicy World – another sneak-peak of what’s in store!

Last week I dropped a few hints of what I’m planning and all my tweets were about this unknown, yet super exciting, news! Today I thought I’d give you some more clues, because, as my followers, you deserve to know first! You, and only you, will basically be with me on my journey and get to see and hear everything first!

So the big ‘campaign’ (that’s a clue too) is taking place in the next week or two. It involves Robert Miller (and you all know how I love to brag about his work), Vanessa Haywood (SA model and actress from District 9), Samantha Laura Kaye (the great make-up artist who has worked on this type of project before) and the NoMU Brand (yes, the NoMU that is taking over my spices cupboard). Another hint: Seth from 2Oceans Vibe Radio, Alex van Tonder (Cape Town Girl) and Vicky Sleet (from I Want That) have all done this before.

Needless to say, I’m super excited to work with all these amazingly talented people! This will be my first PROPER (meaning, professional) photo shoot (hey, another hint!) and, who knows, this might be the start of big things for me. I will definitely share the behind-the-scenes and pretty stuff with you.

Ok, I'm off to plan my outfit for the 2OceansVibe Radio launch! I will definitely post pictures about this for you too.

My world is about to get a whole lot juicier!

I know I've been very quiet with blog posts - and please forgive me - but I have been busy with work and a very exciting project. I don't want to give away too many spoilers, but these pics should definitely give you a clue of what's to come.

Make sure you follow me on Twitter and visit my blog regularly to be updated with my latest venture! You guys will be the first to know about it all, I promise. So while you're trying to figure out what it is I'm busy with, I'll be at the gym working my ass off or at the sunbeds getting a tan. S'all part of the evil plan 'spicy' preparation... *wink wink*

Believe me, you have to keep watching this space.
