August, 2008
-Welcome
back Lee to CoverMen
Mag!, it's great to interview you
again, please update me on your recent modeling assignments,
you worked alot during the first half of year, didn't you?
Hmmmmm,
well lately I've been working a lot actually. I’ve shot
a couple of editorials, did a campaign, some runways,
and some catalog jobs for clients such as Target. I
was also featured on MTV which can be seen on Youtube.com
if you just search my name.
-Surely you
are a very successful model, besides your great look,
what do you think has contributed the most to your success?
Well I think that looks are 90 percent and
the other 10 percent definitely is your personality.
I'm really down to earth and laid back. I try to keep
a positive energy to me and I think that helps me out
when meeting clients.
-I read in your
cool official website, www.LeeKholafai.blogspot.com, that
you'll be in Greece during September and in Italy during
October and November, can you tell me the reasons for
these journeys? I am sure you won't be only a tourist,
by the way is it the first time you will visit Italy?
Oh yea, and I'm so looking forward to it.
I'm traveling for modeling to meet all the great clients
and photographers that Europe has to offer.
-Though
you're still very young, you've already worked with
alot of great photographers, what did you learn from
those great artists? Were you comfortable in front of
the camera with them? 
Yea I'm very fortunate
to have been able to work with such talented photographers.
I am always in my comfort zone when I'm in a shoot and
I definitely learn something new from every photographer
I work with.
-What
kind of assignments, as a model, do you prefer? TV commercials,
runways, photo editorials...?
Hmmm, I like
them all actually. I would say I like tv commercials
the most though just because your able to really show
your personality.
-Are you on vacation
Lee or are you working? In which part of the world?
I'm always working and trying to stay busy to be
as productive as possible. I'm currently in LA and I
love it here. NYC is fun as well but when it gets cold
there I'd rather be in LA because I'm definitely an outdoors
person.
-You are in perfect shape Lee,
what sports do you practice? How many times a week do
you go to the gym?
Well I grew up playing
football but always participated in all sports. I try
to go the gym 5 days a week and do all natural exercises
while I'm there like push-ups and so on. I get my cardio
by either running or cyclying to the gym because a treadmill
is kind of boring to me. lol.
-How do you
spend your free time if you have any?
Well
with my free time now I'm learning how to surf. I pretty
much just like spending my free time with family and
friends.
-If you weren't modeling, what
do you think you'd be doing now? What did you wish to
be when you were growing up?
If I wasn’t
modeling now id probably still be in Alabama running
my shop. Growing up I always wanted to be in the NFL.
I never thought I would actually be a model but hey
its fun so I'm not complaining. lol
-Thanks
alot Lee for taking your time to reply to my questions,
I hope to have the chance to interview you again by
the end of this year!
