BM: What are your measurements?
Ivonnah: 34C-24-37
BM: Give us a rundown of the videos and other roles you’ve been featured in.
Ivonnah: I’ve been in a few videos. I did Avant’s “Read Your Mind”, Tony Yayo “I know You Don’t
Love Me”, 3 6 Mafia “Dope Boy Fresh”, Nick Cannon “Are You A Dime Piece”, Method Man and
Busta Rhymes “What’s Happening”, Ghostface Killah “Push” and 50 Cent’s “Straight to the
Bank”. I’m also on Nick Cannon’s “Wildin’ Out” and his new comedy show “Short Circuitz”. I’m on
the cover of the new June issue of King.
BM: We know that you’re going on your fourth season of being featured on Nick
Cannon’s Wildn’ Out as a model and now you’re also being featured on Short Circuitz
as well. What’s it like working on the show and with the cast?
Ivonnah: I love working on the show, it’s been a really great fun experience. Everyone is so cool,
we’re like a big family. We have a lot of fun. I know I’m spoiled because not every set is fun like
ours.
BM: Do any of the guys flirt with you on set?
Ivonnah: Of course, but it’s all in fun. It’s never gotten crazy, nobody’s disrespectful.
BM: Besides being a model, do you have any other goals you would like to achieve?
Ivonnah: I want to go back to school and become a therapist. I want to provide therapy services
to young pregnant teen girls. I went through it as a teenage mother and I know how it feels to go
through that stage and feel alone. I want to be able to house girls while they’re pregnant, give
them access to medical care and all the things they need.
BM: How were you discovered?
Ivonnah: I used to model with my mother when I was younger, doing runway shows. I won a show
in New Jersey and ended up meeting a contact who provided me with work doing commercials.
After she became my agent I was cast in a few videos but I also went out and found some things
on my own. I did some modeling for Akademiks for their Spring line two years ago.
BM: Do you have any new features lined up that we can check for you to be in?
Ivonnah: My latest project is my own calendar, you can find it at www.upscalepinups.com. Make
sure you go check it out, it’s gonna be hot!
BM: Will do. Now you’re looking good in your pictures, but what does a beautiful
woman like yourself do during your off time?
Ivonnah: I like to go bowling, I go to the gun range and I take my son to the batting cages. My
girls and I just have dinner and movie nights, chill stuff at home.
BM: So you like to go to the gun range? What’s that about? I wouldn’t picture you to be
the type at the gun range.
Ivonnah: A friend of mine convinced me to go once and I loved it. It was fun, I go with my girls
and we get our stress relief that way. And you never know, a girl might have to know how to
shoot!
BM: What kind of qualities do you look for your ideal man to have?
Ivonnah: He has to be smart, caring, sensitive and like children. I want someone who has a job,
not rich but at least employed. He has to spoil me, make sure that he’s emotionally available to
me.
BM: So then it sounds like the average guy still has a chance with you, then?
Ivonnah: Yeah definitely. I don’t really date guys in the industry. I’m not saying that I never would
date someone in the industry, but I’d like to date someone who’s not.
BM: Are you single?
Ivonnah: Yes, I am. I’m not really looking right now because I’m into East Coast guys and I live in
L.A. It’s hard to find what I’m looking for out here. The guys out here are very different.
BM: If a guy took you out, what would you consider to be the perfect romantic evening?
Ivonnah: It depends on the guy. If it’s someone that I care about that I want to be with, then we
could do anything. If I like his company, then that’s what matters. We could stay at home and
watch a movie and have a great time if we get along well.
BM: What would you say is the best attribute about yourself physically?
Ivonnah: My lips are my best quality.
BM: Why your lips?
Ivonnah: Well it’s what the guys always tell me. I like my legs, though. They make me look taller
than what I am. I’m 5’7” so I like that extra height.
BM: What’s bumpin’ in your cd player right now?
Ivonnah: Beyonce’s Deluxe Edition of B’Day. I’m loving the new tracks on there!
BM: Okay. Now are you into Hip-Hop at all?
Ivonnah: Yeah I like Hip-Hop. I’m more of a neo-soul Amel Larrieux kinda girl, just kicking back
and relaxing with the music. But I like anything with a nice beat to it. I listen to a lot of G-Unit
because they’re such good guys and I like their music.
BM: What gets you in the mood?
Ivonnah: Being with someone that I care about. I don’t just get involved with random people.
BM: Everyone has at least one celebrity crush. Who’s yours and why?
Ivonnah: Allen Iverson because I think he’s just gorgeous. I think he’s a gorgeous man. I’ve only
met him in passing but I haven’t had the chance to really talk to him.
BM: Now, one last question. Have you ever thought about doing your own website?
Ivonnah: I’m actually doing that right now! I just bought my domain name recently so I’m working
on that as we speak. It will be Ivonnah.net. It should be dropping in like the next month or so.
BM: Anything else you would like to add?
Ivonnah: Just make sure to watch the new season of Wildin’ Out starting June 7th. Check me out
at www.upscalepinups.com and then go pick up the June issue of King magazine. Make sure you
get the one with the Wildin’ Out girls on the cover because there are two covers. And stay on the
lookout for my website, too!
