Girls of 360: So Nani, where are you from?
Nani Nicole: I was born in Hawaii, raised in San Diego and now I reside in Las Vegas and Los Angeles.
Girls of 360: What would the average person say about Nani Nicole?
Nani Nicole: People that know me say that I have a good heart and that I’m a nice person and easy to get along with. People that don’t know me, that just look at me say that I have a nice derriere and nice eyes. Stuff like that.
Girls of 360: What nationality are you?
Nani Nicole: I have a bunch of mixes. My father is Filipino and a little bit of Spanish. My mom is white but she has German, French, Indian and English in her. I’m a mutt!
Girls of 360: What kind of stuff did you get into after high school?
Nani Nicole: Well, after high school, I wanted to get a really nice car and ended up dancing at a club called Femme Nu. That’s when I was 18. So, I’ve been doing it ever since then.
Girls of 360: Were you comfortable dancing?
At first, I was really intimidated and I didn’t know what I was doing. It took me awhile to get used to the whole “taking off my clothes for money” thing.
Girls of 360: What do you want to do when you stop dancing?
Nani Nicole: I want to get out of dancing for the simply fact that I’m tired of it. I want to learn something new. I’ve started going to school for real estate in California. I’m also going to get my license in Nevada.
Girls of 360: So did you get the car you wanted.
Nani Nicole: Yes. Definitely!
Girls of 360: How did you get into modeling?
Nani Nicole: It wasn’t until last year that I decided to start modeling. I hung out with photographers and started to see the really nice pictures that they had done. I decided to do it for fun.
Girls of 360: How did you feel being in front of the camera for the first time?
Nani Nicole: I wasn’t very comfortable at first. But, once I started feeling comfortable and knowing that I was decent and good, it came easy. I love it. It’s not work. It’s fun for me. It’s something different. It’s not the same old thing, like dancing.
Girls of 360: So you’re comfortable now?
Nani Nicole: I am always comfortable in front of the camera. I just enjoy it all together. I consider myself an exhibitionist in all ways possible. I flaunt it!
Girls of 360: Are you comfortable with your body?
Nani Nicole: There’s always room for improvement. For the most part, I’m pretty comfortable with it. But, I need to shed a couple pounds here and there in certain areas. I am so critical of myself. I guess that could be a bad thing. But then again, it could make me better, as far as the photos that I’m taking. So, I’m definitely my own worst critic.
Girls of 360: Are you enhanced?
Nani Nicole: Boobs. Enhanced. I’m a 36C. Before I got my boobs, I was a 36A. I was very small.
Girls of 360: Why did you get them enhanced?
Nani Nicole: I had nothing going on here. I wanted to fill out clothes. I didn’t want to wear a padded bra anymore.
Girls of 360: What’s the best thing about modeling?
Nani Nicole: It’s meeting new people. It’s different from what I’ve been doing for the past couple of years. It’s seeing myself in a magazine. Everything about it, I enjoy.
Girls of 360: What do you do to set yourself apart from other models?
Nani Nicole: I try to stay away from what I’ve seen. I try to create a different look somehow. I try to give different expressions, as much as I can. I just want to make it really pleasing to the eye.
Girls of 360: How did you feel walking into your first 360 shoot?
Nani Nicole: At first I was a little nervous because I didn’t know anybody. But, now I’m ok because you guys are laughing with me. You’re really cool to work with. 360 is the bomb!
So overall the shoot went great. We did more than I’ve done in any other shoot in my life. I loved it. I love the people I worked with. Not just because you guys are standing in front of me! But, I really enjoyed your company. Not only did we work, but also I had fun doing it at the same time. I definitely look forward to working with you guys again.
Girls of 360: Do you want to say anything to your fans?
Nani Nicole: My Web site is coming out, as some people may know. The address is www.naninicole.com. I look forward to meeting everybody in the future at different events. Thank you very much. I appreciate it.
