Singer/Actor/photographer all the way from Chile- Meet El Virgo.


I will have to admit it. I had an absolute ball chatting with my new featured boy El Virgo. He is as funny as a person as he is as an artist. He is a brilliant singer, model, photographer and actor all rolled up in one. In short he is a package and a real good one. I mean when I asked him if he loves fashion, he told me that he likes it but he prefers being naked. How cool is that? I mean you really need to be very confident to give such kind of answer. I really appreciate him. I wish I could be that confident. Pffff.... but nevermind!

You should probably give his tracks a listen before you proceed. Click here to checkout his soundcloud.
He is originally from Chilean Patagonia, a town named Coyhaique. He moved to Santiago when he was 18.
I was having a one on one with the singer himself. He said-
I'm an actor and a photographer too but my true passion is music and I wanna pursue my dream. I am doing everything to make myself a good product..haha. I have my very first music video coming up by the end of this month and I am super excited about that. If all goes well then I would like to move to Europe for sometime next year.
I was quite intrigued by his photography and asked him "Why so many naked pictures"? to which he said- 
"I like being naked, I like having sex, Lust is beautiful, it connects two bodies, feeds desire, I like feeding my desires as well".
and our conversation went on further..... trust me... this was one of the best conversation I have ever had. Someone so bold and confident and knows exactly what he is and what he wants and not give a f**k about the world. Love his attitude. Way to go boy!

Meet Mathilda the photographer.

It's my pleasure to be featuring Mathilda Perrot on my blog.





Q- Who is she?

A- My very dear friend and a budding fashion and lifestyle photographer.

Q- Where is she from?

A- From the fashion city Lille, France.

Q- How do I know her?

A- None of your business. lol Just kidding.

Mathilda and I met two years back at common party. Back then we had no idea that we would still be such good friends. I looked at her as I would look at any other white girl with good style and she looked at me like any white woman would look at a brown Indian boy (at least that's what I am guessing..haha). Anyway.... long story short.... we ended up becoming really good friends. How could we not rite? 





Mathilda is a professional photographer and the reason why I post today, the reason I look confident in front of the camera, part of the reason why I started blogging. She always told me that I was her best experiment to do her shoots with and I loved posing for her.She taught me how to work in front of the camera, she taught me how to look like a star in front of the camera, she taught me not to care what others think while shooting. So basically, what I am trying to say is that she is the damn reason I am self obsessed today.... so blame her not me...hahahahaha (Sorry Mathilda, excuse moi ). 

Currently Mathilda studies Artistic Direction at the Sup de Creation, a creative advertising school in Lille, France and has been interning in a luxury advertising agency in Paris. Her fantastic work was the photo of the month in a magazine called Phototech. Check out the photo here and another one for the same magazine. Click here.

I was talking to the rising star herself last night asking her about her interest etc. 

Mathilda-  I like all kinds of photography. For me what holds importance is to create a new unique picture,a veritable atmosphere, like another world that no one has seen. Camera for me is tool using which I put my thoughts into creative visuals. I like photo-manipulation and photo editing. I think it's important for a photographer to give his or her own identity touch to their work. Landscape is another addition I would like to add to my work because I love to travel but as of now I mainly capture people and I love that.

Below are just few examples of her brilliant work. Liker her Facebook page. Click here and follow her on tumbler. Click here.

















Oh then there was me..... the super model (wink)













Meet Kenneth. A male model from Denmark.

Meet Kenneth Korsgaard Bek. A young red hair model all the way from Denmark. He started his modeling career very recently and look at him now.....he is not very far from fame and I am more than just happy that he agreed to get featured in my blog. I loved my little conversation with him because he is not just good looking and smart but funny and humble at the same time. 

So it's my great pleasure to present to you a future super duper model Kenneth.  






Hi Ken. It's lovely to have you on my blog. I am a big fan. Your one fine looking lad must say. So how long have you been modeling? Is this what you always wanted to do?

Hey man. Good to be here. Modelling kinda just happened! After studying and being in the army in Denmark I decided to move to London to work for a year. A guy came in to my work and asked me if I wanted to do a shoot for him and his exhibition! I went to the shoot and at this point we had no idea whatsoever if I was gonna make it to the exhibition and book or not. The shoot went pretty well and I ended up as front cover of the book and the head of the exhibition. The photo went viral and I got an agency. That's how it all just suddenly started. Pretty crazy!
I have literally stalked you on Facebook and I can see that you love traveling. Something that you and I share in common. Does your work take you around the world a lot or do you just bagpack yourself everywhere?
I love traveling. Love seeing new places. Love discovering the world. Whaa, just can't get enough of that. The world inspires me and some of the people in this world inspire me to see even more of it. Modelling is taking me to Paris this very weekend, then Milan and New York which I'm looking forward to!! (Clapping my hands like a child getting ice cream)
What do you do when you are not modelling?
When I'm not modelling I'm mostly having a blast working with my mates in a Juice bar in central London called Joe & The Juice. Everything we got there is super healthy and I really enjoy that! Keeps me fit.. Otherwise I do what most do, eat, sleep, jerk off and work out..
Haha... sounds good.Do you do runway as well?
I'm gonna do THE walk soon! We are heading towards London fashion week in less than a month and and I'm already confirmed with the brand NIK + ADA and have have expectations to get more jobs in both London and Milan fashion week.
Tell us your style mantra. What are the things that keeps you happy?
I believe your asking about my style/energy/way of living?)Wow.. Mh. I always try to stay super happy. I believe that you can control everything from your head and mind.. You can change everything into the better. I believe the people around me get more happy if I'm happy and that's what I like to see as well as I like to be around happy people that make me wanna live and be alive! There is this clever saying that the more grumpy you are the more grumpy people you'll meet.
Tell us how do you maintain such a chiseled body?
I eat fried chicken raw octopus. Loads of good stuff in there. No...honestly, I haven't worked out for 6-7 months now.. At least not prober! Back in Denmark I had a really good buddy, Morten, who was really fascinated about bodybuilding and we worked out for a couple of years together. His knowledge helped me form and create the body I wanted and which I think looks good. Then I went to the army where most of the time went by working out!
Last question. Are you single? If yes then tell us about the things you look for in a perfect date
Well, yes I am, and well... You can never tell, but she definitely should be happy about life because that's what I like. That's the kind of people I like to be around. Then she must be just as crazy about traveling and nature as Iam.. Charming, cute..! Wouldn't mind a fit body as well! after all she will get these things from me!! Hahah
