Taking last week off, Hip Hop Vibe had to come back in proper, spectacular fashion and has done so with Mariah. A fresh, young face, Mariah is ready to take on the world and take in all that it has to offer. Among her top interests is modeling, as she feels she has what it takes and it is hard not to agree.
Born in North Carolina, Mariah was raised in Atlanta as a Georgia Peach, but she is far from a Southern Belle. Instead, Mariah is her own person who is determined to make something out of herself in this world. As she pursues her goals in life, Mariah has a lot of people supporting her.
Mariah recently talked to Hip Hop Vibe about her modeling pursuits and other things she has planned for the future. As the latest Hottie of the Week, Mariah explained her reasons for entering the modeling game. She also spoke on some of the people she may or may not be working with.
Read the entire interview below:
Was it your admiration of Tyra Banks that inspired you to become a model? My admiration of Tyra Banks is her beauty, her attitude, her personalty, and her success. It makes me feel like if she can do so can I.
Born in North Carolina and raised in Atlanta, what was your Southern experience like? My Southern experience was tough and hard, but a way of slowly developing. I wouldn’t consider my personalty or attitude as a southern girl (laughs).
What are some of your goals in life? My goals in life are just not being a pretty woman in a magazine or poster. My goals are to build a empire. Acting, create businesses, and inspiring others that what you set your mind to, you can achieve.
Where did the Luvie Luv name come from? The name Luvie Luv came from me being a loving person and no matter where I go or who I talk to, they love me. It took a while for me to create this name, but I look deep down inside to see what was so great about me and bam! It hit me. Luvie Luv (laughs.)
How long have you been modeling now? I’ve been modeling for two years still building, up and coming, and in the making of greatness. I have been off and on, because I want to set other goals to became successful in life if modeling doesn’t work out.
What message do you have for those who are pursuing their dreams like you? My message to those who are pursuing their dreams is to never stop dreaming, never give up, working for it is the best way to pursue a dream, and to have more than and dream. Because everybody wants to be successful, but first have the knowledge, and the education, so if that one dream doesn’t work, then you have other dreams that will. I have many dreams but in order to pursuit them i have to learn and study them.
How did you wind up working with Hoodrep? I know of them through a friend of mine that is with them, but I don’t work with them yet. I’m still checking them out to see what they all about.
What do you feel is your finest attribute? My finest attribute is myself and my faith in God.
Where do you see yourself a year from now? Years from now, I see myself has a successful beautiful well-known woman. Also telling all the haters, nonbelievers “I believed and so I achieved.!!”
