Hottie of the Week: Ly’Nese Monet
By Stranga The GreatHip Hop Vibe Staff Writer
Georgia gets a lot of credit for being the entertainment capital of the South and for the Georgia peach. This is both referencing the saying and the women who reside in the state of Georgia. What often goes overlooked is the territory just north of there, the Carolinas.
Charlotte is becoming a major entertainment hub and is the most-populated city in the South in terms of city limits. There are a lot of rising rappers, athletes, actors, and models coming up in Charlotte. Ly’Nese Monet is one person who is making her way in the game through modeling.
She took time out to talk to Hip Hop Vibe for this week’s edition of Hottie of the Week. As someone who is grinding and on the comeup, it is fitting for her to be from an area that is trying to do the same. Ly’Nese Monet has done a lot in a short period of time and she will definitely be live and in effect for the CIAA Weekend in Charlotte.
Read the entire interview below:
To those who don’t know who you are, can you tell us something interesting about Ly’Nese Monet? I’m a CNA and I work in home healthcare with children and adults with disabilities. I plan on staying in the health field but want to further my license. I am of course taking baby steps at this time because I’m also a single mother of two and pursuing my career as well as my dream in modeling, is hard work.
What would you say has been your biggest obstacle as far as modeling goes? I haven’t had anything too major yet, but I have a lot of people reaching out to me who are major and ready to work with me. I’ve only been doing this for a short amount of time and I have been in several magazines, two videos, and several up and coming events. I’m blessed because this is all by the strength of me and people believing in me. I’m my own manager and I’m blessed to have those already set up.
What is the most intriguing thing a man has ever done to impress you? The most a man has done for me to impress me is buy me a five karat ring with the five karat tennis bracelet to match with no strings attached. I also went on a couple free trips to New York during New Year’s and Key West in September. Hey, it pays to be pretty and I don’t turn down gifts (Winks).
Who do you feel is the sexiest model in the industry? To be honest, I love Keyshia Ka’oir.
What would be your dream modeling job? My dream modeling job is to model clothing lines for every high fashion boutique and to able to keep what I model in and host parties for Diddy.
What Carolina photographers have you worked with and how do you feel about the scene in the Carolinas? Todd Youngblood, Jerod Barbra, Corey Jones, Mel Tec, JK, Laurence T.Z and Snap Shot. I think Carolina is trying to get put on the map, but what I dislike is I got more love from outside cities then I did in my hometown, at first. Now that my name is buzzing and people are on it, but wonder why when we do start going to other cities and get the credit we deserve we don’t even acknowledge where we came from. North Carolina, especially Charlotte needs to do better.
What kind of success do you expect to see in the next couple of years? No matter what route I take, I’m going to be successful. When you think of an All-American, hard working woman and mother of two who is a go-getter, I hope you will think of me as well as see the tread I’m going to leave behind. I’m determined to make it and I will by the grace of God. This is what I want and my time is now, I have my kids as motivation and I will give them the life that they deserve.
Foot massage or back massage which one gets you going the most? I really enjoy and love to have both done. The foot opens up the brain cells and gets the blood flowing properly and the back is for relaxation and will put my ass to sleep (laughs).
Can you please tell us how we can check for you on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook? Instagram is LYNESE MONET and Twitter is Ly’Nese Monet’. If you want to check your girl out live and in person, then come celebrate with me for my birthday this Saturday. I will be at Club Vanity the old Fifth Element building. Also, I will be in Strip The Runway March 1st by Tutu Boutique hosted by PinkyXXX.
