Readers of the popular urban gentlemen’s magazines should know exactly who Latoya Allure is. A popular fixture on the urban scene, Latoya Allure has made sure the world pays attention to her. With a body like hers, it’s not really hard to give her attention.
Latoya Allure is a big name, not only because of her looks, but because she has worked for it. An industry where people often try to cut corners and make it, Latoya Allure fought for hers. But, she did it in a nicer and prettier way than most are used to.
This week, Latoya Allure is the lady speaking to Hip Hop Vibe. In her Hottie of the Week interview, Latoya Allure opened up on how she got into the industry. She also gave an unexpected answer about who she would masquerade as if ever given the chance.
Read the entire interview below:
How did you initially get into modeling? I got into modeling because I’ve always wanted to travel and enjoy life. You know how they say use what you got to get what you want, well I did just that. I figured I could model and it will give me the opportunity to travel and a bunch of other things like party and just enjoy life (laughs) I feel like it’s a free-spirited career.
What were some of your early challenges in the industry? Some challenges I’ve had beginning my career were the connections! I had NONE but I was just determined to make it, so therefore I had to get out there and find them.
Can you tell us something about yourself that the average person would never expect? Something about me the average person would know, I was raised a Jehovah witness, and I still Study it. I love the foundation of it.
What was your experience like shooting for Smooth Mag and Dynasty Series? My experience shooting Smooth Magazine was interesting, (laughs) it was my first major photo shoot. There were about seven or eight people watching me, men and women so I was a little uncomfortable at first. It was done in Jamaica literally outside on the beach. It was very hot and humid and not to mention on a nude beach, but once I warmed up I cut up. Shooting for Dynasty Series was a little more relaxed I should say, it was in a studio setting and the photographer made me feel really comfortable.
Besides being beautiful and modeling what other interests and career aspirations do you have? Besides modeling I look forward to getting into some acting, I’ve always wanted to be in a Lifetime Movie. I also see myself possibly in the studio (laughs) I just want to do a little bit of everything. There are no boundaries and I love challenging myself.
How do you deal with attention that you receive on social media? Is it at all overbearing? The attention that I receive on social media really doesn’t bother me, whether it be negative or positive or constructive criticism. I have pretty thick skin and also understanding is everything, some people just have nothing better to do!
Whats next for Latoya Allure and how do you plan on keeping relevant in this competitive game? What’s next for Latoya Allure? I have a few parties coming up that I’m hosting, and also I’m looking to get into fashion, I love fashion. I plan to stay relevant simply by staying busy and having my hand in a little bit of everything. I’m not in this for the fame.
What do you love most about your body and what do you do to keep it curvy but toned? I love everything about my body, but most of all I’m really grateful for my brain! (Laughs) Take that however you may. I keep it curvy and toned by hitting the gym and trying to eat healthy and I stay away from junk foods.
If we were attending a sexy costume party together what would you wear to turn all the heads in the room? If we were to attend a sexy costume party together I’d most likely be Kim Kardashian! I just love her and Kanye together. She is sexy. (Smiles)
