Who are your pop culture idols?

Definitely the first person that comes to mind is Lady Gaga, I’ve loved her since high school. Now that she’s doing TV it’s super cool to see her absolutely kill it in another industry and she’s always been so real. I actually have a tattoo of her lyrics on my foot, a line from “Speechless.” I have on the top of my right foot the words “left me speechless.”

I love her unwavering support for the LGBTQ community and she’s always spreading the message of “be yourself,” “love yourself,” “live your best life,” and I think all are so important.

What made you want to get the tattoo from Speechless?

It actually has quite a personal meaning to me! Gaga wrote “Speechless” about her father and I shared that song with my mom. So that’s definitely the connection, and I got it because it was our favorite song.

Who’s your dream interview?

If I could have anybody on my channel, I would have to, again pick Lady Gaga. I would love to sit down, and pick her brain, and just meet her and talk to her one on one because I think she’s so fab.

Describe your type in 3 words:

My type definitely has to be funny! I’m a big humor person. I think that’s the way to anyone’s heart – just making them laugh. Number two: tall, because I’m 5’9” and I love heels and I just like a tall guy. Number three: loyal.

Describe what type you are in 3 words:

I would definitely say I’m a little bit wild. I’m definitely very loving. Like for my friends, and those I care about, I definitely go hard for them. The third word? Independent for sure. Just in life, I don’t need anybody to do anything for me. Business wise, personal life — I’m ambitious, I’m creative.

What’s the biggest turnoff for you?

Maybe when a guy talks about themselves too much. I’ve been on so many first dates recently where the guys just talk about their life so much. And I am always so perplexed. Like why do you keep talking about yourself? You’re supposed to be getting to know me. We’re supposed to be talking about us, not just randomness. It’s like ok, that’s cool. That’s a turnoff for sure, because it leaves me bored.

What’s a new trend coming in right now that you’re super excited about?

I definitely am seeing a lot of 70s vibes and I’ve been so into the 90s recently that I’m excited to try all the 70s fashion. The fringe moment. I’m ready to dive into the 70s.

How are you gonna make it work with your super glam style?

I’m def gonna take bits and pieces and put it into my style. You don’t see me every day, I don’t look put together all the time. It’s a very day to day look, au naturel. Going to work, to the mall… I love the glam so we’ll have to merge the two.

What’s a new trend coming out you’re not gonna touch with a 10 foot pole?

I cannot deal with all the blue eyeshadow going on. No shade to anybody — I was actually at the Jeremy Scott show in NY and they did blue eyeshadow which was so cool for the runway. It looked amazing because the line was all about neon colors. But I’m seeing blue eyeshadow and I’m like i could never- it would totally clash with my eyes.

What’s one article of clothing you wear way too much because you love it forever?

I love little simple dresses. No particular brand but I love little day dresses, bodycon dresses that go right above the knee. this is gonna sound so crazy but I’ve been loving my Guiseppe Zanotti sneakers. I don’t wear em all the time but they’re so comfy! Any time I’m going to the airport, anything as simple as walking my dog I always put em on because they’re so simple and I love them.

Favorite music for summer road trips?

I love pop music but it’s so funny, because I’m at a shoot right now, and on the way here I was listening to Good Charlotte and Sum 41 so I’m just a teenager forever. I love Britney Spears’ pop music. I have to go through my playlist. I mean Britney is like forever def. But anything just like fun and poppy.

What are some of the main differences between L.A. and Toronto, where you grew up?

So many differences. Number one, the atmosphere. The weather and stuff is super different, but the people also. Everyone here in L.A. is in entertainment or linked in some way, but in Canada it’s kind of rare that you find somebody in the entertainment industry just because there’s so many different facets. Everyone here in LA is on that. I’ve been coming out here for years before I moved so I knew what i was getting myself into and I definitely love being bicoastal.

Differences between dating in L.A.and Toronto?

So many more models here in L.A. I swear, 90% of guys here model. But in Toronto, I would say… Maybe guys are more down to earth in Toronto. Just more #normal in Toronto.

Do you like models or hell no?

I can get into it but it’s not my first pick.

How do you meet guys? Apps?

Oh god no. Okay it’s so funny, I drive a yellow Mustang and I call it the “guy magnet,” because literally wherever I go, the gas station for example – guys will be asking to pump my gas, it attracts guys. They’re like, wow is that your car? I have it all blinged out, my name on the back, so they’re super into it and it’s an ice breaker. So I just have to go out for a drive to meet a guy.

How did you pick that car?

When I moved here i wanted a Mustang for forever, it’s kind of like my little California dream to be driving a Mustang. The only thing I didn’t get is the convertible. It only came in a soft top and I was disappointed because I didn’t like how it looks so yeah, it was an easy pick. And then I went to West Coast Customs to get it pimped out.

If you could be any Spice Girl, which would you be?

Baby! Yeah, I mean duh. If i wasn’t blonde I’d have to pick Posh but I can’t. Baby’s my OG. I love the movie and I had her cassette growing up.

Any TV shows you love binge watching?

I’ve been obsessed with Empire. I’ve had no time to watch TV recently, but I love Empire. I loved The People v. O.J. Simpson: American Crime Story even though it was a little bit dark. Friends is always a classic.

What’s a fact about you people would be surprised about?

Maybe the only thing coming to my head is the fact I’ve been so into rock music recently. No classic rock, just like boy bands. Like punk and ska. I don’t know! I just like the attitude behind it.

What’s the best celeb encounter you’ve had?

I actually was at a friends b-day party, and I ran into Nick Jonas and I’ve had a little crush on him since JB days so i was kinda dying and we were talking and I had to pinch myself for a second.

What’s a typical day for you?

If i’m filming a YouTube video that day at my house on location somewhere, usually the day is surrounded by that depending what it is. Or if I have a meeting or anything like that. Some days I have off. If I’m not traveling I like to spend it with my dog and my friends and live my life.

Are you a big partier?

I love going out to dinners, going to the beach. I love going to the beach because I’m not from anywhere that has nice beaches so I def take advantage of that.

Go-to swimwear?

Triangle. They actually just came out with a Gigi bikini. It’s coincidentally just called Gigi, so I was like… Omg r u kidding me!

What are your thoughts on a monokini?

Oh I love it, are you kidding? OMG no, I love it. Like with high waisted shorts for a pool party or something? So cute.

Are you into tanning?

I am, I used to way back in the day do the tanning beds for like a year, but I haven’t done that in so so long. I’m definitely into the spray tan, I think it’s just healthier and I love the instant color that it gives me. I remember when I went (to tanning beds) literally back in high school, I got so dark and I used to put that sticker on and see how dark I would get. I was obsessed, it was like an addiction. I used the little heart and I put it right by my hip area.
