We like to see models helping each other out to get more exposure, ESPECIALLY when it involves being exposed to us (yes, we meant that just like we said it). Thanks to Zenovia Cruz, we got introduced to PR/Egyptian hottie Josie B. You’ve probably seen her somewhere, because this cutie has been in a ton of magazines, and heating up runways.
We got a chance to talk to this lovely, and get her responses to our favourite Q&A.

Not at all! If anything when I am recognized I blush like no other and am fast to look for my exit strategy! (laughs)
