Jackfroot Exclusive Interview With Honey Siong

J: How did you first get introduced into the modeling industry and what do you love about it?
H: I was introduced to the modeling industry by my cousin years ago. He did a lot of runway shows and his portfolio was amazing. I couldn’t help but have him help me get into it. He booked me my first and biggest runway show at age 16 and from there the rest is history!

J: If you weren’t modeling, what can you picture yourself doing or what career field would you be in?
H: I look at modeling as just a fun thing to do, I don’t take it as serious. I can picture myself being in the business atmosphere, I always had a thing for business and most definitely love being in suits. Also I can picture myself traveling the world, sounds so exciting!

J: Who are some of your biggest influences that inspire you today?
H: My mother is one of my biggest influence, because she’s a fighter and a very strong hearted person. I learned being a strong person and fighter from her, she just keeps moving even when she’s at her lowest, she never backs down to negativity, she overcomes it. She’s my inspiration and biggest influences of all. I have many more, but I can go on and on… LOL

J: Being Asian, most parents don’t approve of modeling as a career. What did your parents first think about you as a model and how do they feel about it today?
H: They didn’t mind me modeling at all, at least I had my clothes on, my parent’s own a photo studio so I was they’re #1 model to advertise the shop, but they didn’t approve whatsoever when it came to showing skin. It was hard for them to accept it and now its still hard, but they can’t control a young lady who has a life of her own and makes her own decisions.

J: What types of food do you love eating and what type of restaurants do you enjoy going to?
H: I’d eat anything that looks good lol. Most favorite, I’d have to say Asian food in general, from Hmong food, Vietnamese, Chinese, Thai and Laos. I enjoy getting my tummy filled at the Hmong Flea Market, getting dyed purple sticky rice with sausage and dipping pepper sauce or a nice warm/hot bowl of pho from one of my favorite pho restaurant, Pho Hoa.

J: If you can have any superpower, what would it be and why?
H: INVISIBILITY! Why? Because it would be awesome to pull pranks.

J: Do you have any other skills or jobs besides modeling that you’d like to let your fans know about?
H: I’m a massage therapist. I have magic hands that heals a person’s back and also I’m a great hip hop dancer. I love using dancing as a way to get away from stress.

J: When you’re not modeling, what do you enjoy doing for fun?
H: I like playing video games >__<  lol or going out for a drink or two.. maybe three or five?!! lol
