VITAL STATS

Age: 18 (in 1997)

Home Base: New Orleans

Sign: Sagittarius

This superstudly Sag is as unpredictable as his sign- which means he's way more interesting than just another pretty face in a Versace ad.

How did you land in this fab fashion world?

My parents got me into child modeling when I was 10 years old. It's been really great, but now I want to act.

What's the one thing you couldn't live without?

Water. No, really-- it's my friends. I have a million acquaintances but just two or three true friends. I can't hid anything from them.

How do you meet girls?

In the oddest ways. I talk to everyone. I'm a people person, so it comes naturally.

Okay, so who's the lucky one?

I don't have a girlfriend. When you model, you're in Paris, LA-- all over the world. I used to have a girlfriend and it was nuts, calling her from Europe all the time.

What's you're favorite thing about girls?

Just the way they make you feel. Nothing touches my heart like a beautiful woman.

Name the last three CD's you bought.

All are by the Doors. I love classic rock.

What's the biggest pain in your neck?

There's always something I'm worried about. I have to keep my self occupied so I don't worry so much.

Which is cooler: Road Rules or The Real World?

There's better stuff to watch than both those shows.

What was the last book you read?

The Sacred Journey of the Peaceful Warrior- it's a higher-learning book about your inner self. Plus, I read lots of books on acting.
