24: Introduce yourself to the readers and let them know where your from?

Shay: Hey my name is Shay the “UK Bombshell”, I’m from the UK of course(lol)hence the name, London,England. I live in East London to be exact. I’m a model but I also study publishing, and work with kids in a theater. An recently I became a club promoter out here in London with two of my best-friends Nikolia and Kim aka “Star Nights”. I’m a very honest person and people are surprised about just how spontaneous I am. I just love different things. I love my family/friends and they are my biggest motivation as well!

24: What lead you to start modeling?

Shay: I was always asked and told to do modeling but I was always like “Me? Really? No, thanks!” because believe it or not I was the tomboy type. I was always one of the guys, into sports and all that I thought I was a bad girl when really I was just stupid(lol). I remember one day I was proved wrong, I went out with a good friend of mine and was scouted to do “Luire Magazine” which is a Japanese Magazine. I was in total shock but I obviously said yes! It’s a fashion magazine and from there it all began!

24: How long have you been modeling for and what would you say has been your biggest accomplishment so far?

Shay: I’ve been modeling for 3 years now and this year has been my best yet. I have achieved so many things and opportunities are carrying on knocking at my door. I have done quite a few things this year but I won’t say until they are actually out but believe me you will love it! My biggest accomplishment so far? That’s a hard one because I loved working with everyone I wouldn’t know which one to pick!

24: What’s your nationality?

Shay: I’m originally from Kenya, Italy, Portugal and Yemen. People never seem to guess where I’m from. I get all kinds of nationalities(smiling).

24: With so many beautiful models in the industry what would you say you bring to the table that separates you from everyone else?

Shay: You know what? There are of no doubt beautiful women all over the world, we’re surrounded by beautiful women and models.  An sometimes I ask myself why are people interested in me? An you know what’s the answer I got?  It’s because I’m not boring! No one wants to know who you are if you’re boring. Come on, looks fade away but your personality stays.
 
24: What are your measurements and what part of your would you say is the sexiest?

Shay: My measurements are all natural and I’m a 30JJ-26-38 and my best assets are my eyes and my natural “30JJ” and a part that gives me pleasure Jay. These are the ones I’m often complimented on.

24: Out of all of your photos shoot tell me your Top 3 that were the most memorable and you had the most fun doing?

Shay: I have my Top 4 I can’t figure out a Top 3 so you can get a bonus(lol). My very first one, you know what they say “It ain’t nothing like the first time” Luire Magazine because it was all new to me especially with clothes on wow. Last year when I got back from my holiday in Kenya. I had to take out my single plaits to shoot with Juice Magazine(www.juicemagazine.co.uk) the next day! The way my fingers hurt but at least I got to the shoot with my natural hair and it was done beautifully. Especially in Africa they do the single plaits tiny and i had about a thousand so imagine taking them out all by yourself. I recently had a shoot with Nick Saglimbeni (www.slickforce.com Check out the website) because he is such a great person and extremely talented.  I was so happy that Sean Cummings(www.showgirlzexclusive.com CEO of Show Magazine) chose me to feature!  The shoot was amazing and I was so happy about my hair, make-up. An finally I will say the shoot I did with Dwayne Darden at Summer Bunnies because it was the first time I shot together with my best friend aka my sister!

24: What would you say is an automatic “Turn On” & “Turn Off” for you about a guy?

Shay: I love it when a guy knows how to dress, because true say the looks is the first thing you see but the personality opens the gate way!So when a guy knows how to dress and has good hygiene I find that so sexy and the first thing I look at is what they got on their feet and check out their teeth(lol). For a “Turn off“I would say a guy who smell like shit and talk shit(liars, talk shit he can’t back up). Or a guy that’s hairy, fake ass, crusty(dry) and boring with no sense of humor.

24: Would you say that your the romantic type and if so what’s the most romantic thing you ever did for a guy?

Shay: You know I could be very romantic but only to someone special! I’m a pleaser and the most romantic thing I’ve done is paid for dinner and apartment, but the person didn’t know that I had decorated the apartments bathroom with roses and candles. That day we ended up watching football on TV but just know someone got lucky that night(lol)!

24: What would you say is the biggest misconception people have about you?

Shay:  In life people will always have something to say,  I’ve had all kinds of things said about me from “I think I’m too nice, fat, skinny, shy, hoe, slut, I only date muscular guys the list goes on…” But you know what I don’t care, of course there’s a time in life where you do care what people say but then as time goes by you just don’t. What you think about yourself is far more important than what others think! Because remember this no one knows you more than you know yourself.

24: If you could choose any Entertainer/Athlete/Actor, etc to spend 24 hours with who would you choose and why?

Shay: It would be Michael Jackson because since childhood I’ve loved him. I’m being serious I LOVE Micheal Jackson, it’s a shame that most people now see his talents and are more into him because he’s dead but me I’ve been there since I was young! I would spend my 24 hours with him because we both love kids and hoping he would teach me to dance like him, we can watch some movies with bubbles and just hang out and we can go to McDonalds and get a happy meal because I know we both would be happy and yeah I would want him to perform Dirty Diana because I never had a  chance to watch him perform and I’m so jealous my dad met him before! R.I.P Michael Jackson!

24: Are you in a relationship and if not what do you look for in a guy?

Shay:  I’m into guys who have their head right like they need to know what they want and where they are going, a guy who can dress and has style, good hygiene, nice skin and teeth, great sense of humour, someone who has a great personality, someone I can chill with and play video games with, laugh at me when I’m being silly and having my embarrassing moments but then hold me and comfort me, I have to be able to call him my friend and my man! Someone who is down for me and respects the decisions I take/make. Taller than me because I’m 5’8! Mature guy, great sex and definitely someone who is aggressive (not a woman beater but someone who will tell me when I’m wrong).

24: Which flavor Ice Cream would you say best describes yourself?

Shay:  I think any flavor would describe me because either way I’ll melt in your mouth(smiling). I’m joking but I would say vanilla because I’m thick, you could never go wrong with vanilla and once you’ve had a taste of vanilla Ice Cream you always want some more(smiling).

24: Tell me the worst pick line a guy has used in order to get your phone number or a date?

Shay: The most pathetic one I have heard from a guy is “I lost my number can I get yours”(lol).

24: A lot of people say the way to man’s heart is by cooking so if you had to cook a meal for that special someone what would it be?

Shay: I would cook some Italian food because I find that so sexy, romantic and soothing and it’s my favorite thing to cook!

24: What’s a sexual fantasy that you have that you have not explored as yet?

Shay: Every fantasy I’ve had has come to life but there’s one left that I want to do and that is have sex in space(lol). So looks like that will remain a fantasy(smiling).

24: Okay, your off the hot seat for now tell everyone what’s next for you?

Shay: I have a few things lined up so definitely be on the look out and stay tuned in.

24: Tell the readers the best way to find out more about you and check out more photos, etc?

Shay: You can follow me on Twitter at  www.twitter.com/shayukbombshel or Myspace at  www.myspace.com/shay_online.

24: Any finals words for the readers?

Shay: “The future belongs to those who prepare for it today”- Malcolm X(R.I.P). “Small minds discuss people great minds discuss ideas”- Kaya Queen Of Clubs (R.I.P).“Be more concerned about your character rather than your reputation, your character is who you are and your reputation is what others think of you!” –Shay UKBombshell
