Age: 25
My Hood: Vieques, Puerto Rico
I Was Discovered...Playing soccer for my high school team by a model scout.
My First Vibe Photo Shoot Was...One of my favorite jobs. When I arrived in Negril, Marc Baptiste (who is one of the coolest men on this planet) was shooting Tyson. I didn't have many belongings at the time, just some stuff that fit in a plastic grocery bag. I got hit kind of hard from all the chaos 9/11 brought with it. Marc asked me where my stuff was and I tried to just put on a brave face and make a gesture to my grocery bag. No one said a word for a minute and then the stylists just got me a bikini from the wardrobe and that was that! No one made me feel weird or less than.
Working with Tyson was an amazing learning experience, he was so natural, polite, brotherly, and great fun to work with. The whole production was done so well, I guess I was in awe of it all. I'm surprised that a fly never flew into my mouth! The clothes were amazing, the styling was fierce, the hair and make up was gorgeous, I got to work with a walking roman statue, and shooting with Marc Baptiste was the cherry on the cake, not to mention the locale, the weather, the food, I loved it!
For Fun I Like...Horseback riding, yoga, long distance running, and reading.
The Five Songs I Bump On My iPod...
"Move on Up" - Curtis Mayfield
"She's so Cold" Rolling Stones
"Myself When I Am Real" Charles Mingus
"Lamento Borincano" Marc Anthony
"Killing in the Name Of" Rage Against the Machine
The Celebrity I’d Love To Be Shot With For VIBE Is...2Pac, if he was still with us.
Check Amanda out in the "Stylin' on You" spread from the May 2008 issue of VIBE Magazine. Also see the websclusive outtakes from that shoot below:
