Exclusive Interview With VH1 Jasmine Lennear

Geneva: Greetings Jasmine, thanks for agreeing to this interview! How are you doing today?

Jasmine: I'm doing great today.I'm feeling good, looking good, and my health is in order what else can be better then that?


Geneva: I agree now for those who have not had the pleasure can you introduce yourself?
Jasmine: Well, I'm Jasmine. I was on VH1
latest dating show starring Ochocino called,"The Ultimate Catch"! I'm
the one he cried over when he eliminated me LOL.

Geneva: You are known for your hilarious sense of humor from Chad
OchoCinco reality show where he was looking for love. Where does your
comic inspiration come from?
Jasmine: Hmmmmm, I think its genetic LOL. My
whole family are goof balls especially my mom and my dad. I find it fun
to take life as it comes because it can be so stressful at times. I
have always like to make people laugh its fun for me. I'll be the one
in the bunch that will do the dumbest thing just to get a laugh. I
guess you can say it's my high!


Geneva: Being on a reality show in your opinion what are the pros and cons?

Jasmine: The CONS: You get crazy people
stalking you and judging your every move. People will try to chop you
down so much and there is so much hate.You're always looked at
differently just because you were on TV. You can't move the same
anymore. You can't go back to your regular life. You get old friends
trying to hook back up with just so they can be in the spotlight with
you.If you don't have tough skin this life is not for you.
The PROS: You get to drink free liquor at the club and get carried out
by the bouncers lol. Just playing, but a lot of doors open up for you.
Life becomes somewhat of a party ( hey party over here). You get to met
new people travel and just experience new things. The experience helps
you grow in various ways. You become more in-tune with yourself and
the people around you, You learn how to read people and you become some
what of con artist detector as time goes on you can start to sniff out
the real from the fake.

Geneva: You have been featured in music video like "Go Shawty" by Travis Porter, if you could choose any music video past or present to be featured in what music video and why?

Jasmine: I think I would have to say that I
would like to be in Neyo- Miss Independent (remix) video because it
represents positivity and empowerment. Soulja Boy and Bow Wow's Video
-Marco Polo looked like hella fun I would have loved to hit the stanky
legg one time in that video. I would so so so LOVE to be in any Gucci
Mane video because he's dead sexy LOL.I would also like to be featured
in A Plies,Jezzy,Lil Wayne,Trey Songz,Rick Ross,Waka, Nicki or Antione
Dodson video LOL Hide Ya kids !


Geneva: You are also known for your modeling, Many know the stress for
designers but what is the pressure or preparation for the models?


Jasmine: Well I really don't consider myself
a model as of yet. I'm still learning. Modeling is very competitive. I
compare modeling to a mini van: only so may can fit in it, once it is
full you better try to carpool with the neighbors LOL. So much work
goes into to modeling, you have to eat right (NOT MY THING) and you
have to exercise (ALSO NOT MY THING). Some of you my not think that it
is hard, but I like to eat and go to sleep and you cant do that if you
have photo shoots booked back to back. You have to scratch the bacon,
the fried chicken, the nachos, the soda, the KOOL-AID and the cookies.
That's hell for me UGH!

Geneva: Being a beautiful women with so many talents, what has been your most profound achievement thus far?


Jasmine: Wow...I would have to say my face
being able to be see on national TV. That's what most people aim for in
a lifetime and I have achieved that which is what granted me the
privilege of this interview.


Geneva: What is the biggest misunderstanding people have about women in the entertainment business in your opinion?


Jasmine: I think the BIGGEST misunderstanding
is that the women are WHORES. Don't get me wrong, some of the women
(in the entertainment business) are a little out there, but there are
also many women out there that have self respect.

Geneva: Now more then ever we see strong, dominate, beautiful spirited woman in the entertainment business. In your opinion what
makes strong woman in business and in life?

Jasmine: What makes a woman strong, through
any aspect in life, is experience and game. You learn from your
mistakes and you grow and gain knowledge about the situation and you
use that in your future life decisions.

Geneva: Now not getting to personal I hope, but when it comes to dating
in your opinion is it easier dating inside or outside the industry?

Jasmine: Well, I have actually never
dated anyone that was in the industry, but I would imagine that it
would be difficult because of their schedule coupled with my schedule.
The relationship will have all the everyday pressures plus those of
groupies,gold diggers, camera, and media breathing down your throat
24-7.

Geneva: Your a woman of many talents, based off of your experience what key advice would you give to young women heading into this business?

Jasmine: Make sure this is the lifestyle that
you want to live and are prepared for all that it entails. Make sure
that you are ready for STRANGERS that approach you on a daily basis and
also make sure you are ready to be talked about. You have to be able
to make the right decisions on your own because no one is your true
friend in this industry and no one has you best interest at heart.
It's not all glitter and gold there are also numerous downsides to
being a celebrity and a lot of people don't truly understand that.


Geneva: Being a model and fashionista how would you describe your fashion sense?

Jasmine: When I shop I just pick up items that
catch my eye. If I like it, then it goes into the cart LOL. I don't
focus on who has what or who's wearing what: if I like it, trust it
will look good on me.


Geneva: Being a woman of comedy if you could do a comedy tour or show. Who would you cast and why?


Jasmine: If I could do a comedy tour I would cast: Affion Crockett, Charlie Murphy,Monique,Kevin Hart, Katt Willams, Bruce Bruce, and AJ Johnson.These guys have me on the floor
crying laughing. I think that this show would sell out the 1st day.
This idea is super cool if I must say so myself. I think I should copy
write this immediately LOL.

Geneva: Jasmine it has been my honor and privilege to interview you. Is there anything you would like say or add before we go? Thanks again also don't forget to tell us where we can
keep up with you and all your latest projects!
