Bianca’s a busty babe with silver-screen dreams. She’ll go a long way on looks alone, but after one conversation with her, you’ll know she’s got her some brain to match her body. Born and raised in North Carolina, this southern sexpot’s living the life of an aspiring actress, and she’s taken her swagger to the streets of New York. She’s got no doubt that she’s gonna make it in the biz—and after this interview, neither do we.
What made you want to become a SMOOTH Girl?
I’m very self-assured. I’m a beautiful, confident woman and, to
say the least, I’m very much SMOOTH. And the shoot was really exciting. I really enjoyed myself.
Was this your first shoot?
No, I’ve been part of two photo shoots before this—one with Sean Paul—and I’ve gotten to be on a few movie sets as well.
Would you say you’re leaning more towards acting than modeling?
Yes, definitely. Becoming an actress was always
my intention when I moved from North Carolina to New York City. The obstacles that I’ve had to overcome have been a challenge in getting into the industry, but I feel like, thus far, I’ve been making great progress in getting to where I want to be in my career.
What were some of the obstacles that were in your path?
Trying to find great representation, which I’ve found with Ethnicity Models. They’ve been a great help to me.
Why New York and not L.A.?
I feel New York is where you hone your craft, as opposed to L.A., where you go and work. New York is the place to be in order to get adequate training and build contacts. I’ve been here for a year now, and it’s exciting. There are so many more options than I’m used to. I do see myself moving to L.A. when the opportunity takes me there.
Where in North Carolina are you from?
I’m from a town called Lumberton, and I got my degree in biology at North Carolina State University, with a concentration in agricultural business. While there, however, I pursued training in acting and modeling.
