Premiere Interview with: Rudy Bundini: "HunkoMania"

1) Rudy, Being a successful model, why do you also perform at Hunkomania?
reading this question make me to a deep memory of mine which by the end of this story you will exactly get the answer:
i was 8 years old and my mom had bought me my first umbrella, a Black and Blue umbrella ... it was raining and i was at school yard . i clearly remember the joy and happiness of playing with my umbrella under the rain, this joy was suddenly broke by hearing the school ringing bell which meant we have to go inside for mass class.

i was thinking that although playing with my umbrella under rain is the most enjoyable time of mine but i was going to school for a more important reason, learning which lead me better future , so it was logical to end up my play and go to class for an important reason - learning mass by listening to me teacher. It was one of longest 1 hour i have ever experienced and i can not even remember what my teacher was teaching till i hear the break time ringing bell, i was jumping, running to yard but the rain was already over.
after that i experienced several times of rain and better umbrellas , but i can never ever again can experience the joy i had and end it up for a more important and logical reason.
here is the point , we pass our favorite and enjoyable moments of our lives to reach some thing more valuable like money , good job position, college degrees, better opportunities and ... then we want to gain joy by spending them while we already had it before killing it to reach our goals
so here is the answer of your question: I don't want to ride my Mclaren and when i stop at the red light on 10th Ave and take a look at the left side of the street which says 42th street and it make me to a deep memory of my 20 years ago when i was enjoy working in Hunkomania when i ended it up because of a more logical reason, a great job opportunity that needed a Mechanical Engineer with Master degree.

this is the best perfect future that i imagine for you, regardless that i may quit working in Hunkomania and go back to work as an Engineer and die at work because of hitting a metal at my head after 2 years in my 30, heart stroke because of my job type, sitting all day long at my desk, or even bankruptcy.
we all live only once and it is our time now to enjoy our lives how ever we enjoy it... (for me , it is Hunkomania)
there is no guarantee in the future, and on the other hand even for the goal of life like money, no one can guarantee that if i change my way and end up my fun moments in Hunkomania and go back to work as an Engineer i will be more successful. yes i agree that Possibility of success in that field seems more bright generally, but even if it is 100% guarantee , i am not the one who end up working in my dreamy place (Hunkomania)...

2) How do you like it?
the important factors in my jobs are:
1) the person whom i work for, It is my pleasure working for Armando, he is a good pattern not only in his job but also in his personal life, he is a great and responsible father for his children and a Devoted husband .
2) working Atmosphere: it is all about women :)

3 How did you learn dancing?
i think the most important thing in this business which no one can even guess is understanding which is the first step of approaching to a woman , and for this you should just be able to put your self in women's shoes to know how to treat them, i ve learned the way i should treat the women by experience mostly and the rest by reading , "Men are from Mars, women are from Venus" written by "John Gray" was a great source for me
and of course the look is the other important factor when it combine with a good hunkomania choreography you can conquer any women's heart

4) What do you think women expect from a show like that?
our mission is Therapy, and we are Therapist, they mostly do not come to fill their sexual gap
usually they come to Hunkomania to release from all tension and stresses that every women have in their lives
they come to get ride of all of stresses that they gain during the week by family, friends, work, society and modern life
and we are well trained to make it happen

5) Which feedback do you receive from them?
that women deserve to be appreciated, they deserve to be seen, they are dying for their men to tell them how pretty they are, they love to be noticed their changes even if it is just a small one like eyebrow picking, or changing color of lipstick. they are starving of your attention which is ignored by men who don't know how Painful is for a woman to passed by without mentioning how good her cooking was. and i think they deserve it but men are just pass it by not because they don't care about them but just because 1)they don't know how a small thing can be important for a women 2)they are drowned with their work in the big cities and Machine lives that can not see or pay attention Anniversaries, details and putting afford and energy for their women.

6) Can you tell me a very awkward moment of your interaction with women?
yes , English is not my first language , so i wanted to invite my friend list to Hunkomania after party which we serve women with drinks and hookah, here is the text: " Hello i invite you on weekends late at nights for Hunkomania after party, free drinks and Hookup all night long, Thank you"

7) How long do you plan to stay in the business of male entertainers?
as long as Armando allow me to be and i will be effective and helpful for the company..

8) What do your family and friends think about your job at Hun-O-Mania?
i don't care about what other people think, i care about how i feel
there is no way in the world you can find that every one accept and agree on
the best and patriot kings in the history were hated, killed and cursed by some of their own people
it is easier to wear your shoes on than trying to clean whole roads on your way.

Thank you for your time Rudy!

LAURENT Caillat

Hottest Male Model Today

World premiere Interviewby Christopher Uvenio

- Let's give some tips to new models, tell me What is the most important thing that a girl/boy should do to present herself/himslef well in castings?

I think the most important thing is to learn how to exude confidence, be personable and engaging.

looks only will more then likely not give you that extra something.

Do you have an interesting anecdote from a photo shoot, a casting or a show?

a few years back at NYFW I was walking a show at the tents in Bryant park for some designer I completely forgot the name of and we ( the models) were given wonder bread (!!!) to put in our underwear…apparently they were see through and that's what they came up with to make it pg 13 ( laugh)…

- Your career is unique, what do you think made you stand out among other guys?

I think the one thing which always played in my favor was the fact that I am a performing artist foremost ; That has always helped me in terms of "selling the story" so to speak …Modeling just happened but that was certainly not the main plan.

Turning to some personal questions, how would you describe your way to have fun, the places you usually go, and your way to enjoy life?

I have thing for Bars in general,; the atmosphere , the smell , the encounters …I am somewhat of a night person , and I obviously love music , so anything combining those two elements will do it for me.

I also love cinema with a penchant for either french new wave authors or B action movies from the 80's (laugh)

cooking and having friends over for dinner is also something that I enjoy very much!

Tell me about your professional plans: apart from modeling, what else would you like to pursue or are you already pursuing?

I am currently working on my debut album.which is very much a mix of nu-disco , deep house , rnb and pop.

I also do a lot of music production work for beauty and fashion brands alike. My latest collaborations include clients such as : Nars cosmetics, ByKillian, Slightly Sinister, Barell Hound ,Ducati…

In 2013 I Wrote the score to my good friend Francois Rousseau's 1st feature "Time of the athletes ( le temps des Athletes).

As an actor my latest work was on Paul Bettany's directorial debut "Shelter" starring his wife Jennifer Connelly; I share a small scene with her which was pretty amazing .

On the fashion industry: who are the people that you really loved to work with?

I would have loved to work with Jean-Paul Gaultier in the 90's.In my opinion, He pretty much defined the so called "generation x " from a fashion standpoint . I would love to work with Karl Lagerfeld, Tom Ford,Ozwald boateng and Georgio Armani.

- What is your favorite sport and how often do you play it?I work out quite a bit, so i would say my daily routine at the gym.

I also love swimming, sparring…I use to do a lot of capoeira ( getting back to it): I have a bit of a penchant for martial arts in general and acrobatic sports ( In a previous life I was a part of the swiss national gymnastics team..))

What is your favorite kind of movies and the last film you watched?

I love all sorts of movies…The last one that I quite fancied was "bone tomahawk" starring Kurt Russell ( I'm a big Kurt Russell fan! the best beard in the business (laugh)

Your favorite female model?

CHRISTY TURLINGTON! Hands down..

-Where have you been traveling recently?

Lately to Geneva to see my family and to the Dominican Republic to see my family as well..

Thank you for your time Laurent! I Look forward to more interview with you in the near future!!

J.Lo: Iconic Versace Jungle Dress

Jennifer Lopez gushes 'there was so much electricity in the room' when she stormed the Milan runway in iconic Versace jungle dress..

She was the talk of Milan Fashion Week when she made a surprise appearance on the Versace runway in the iconic jungle print dress that she first wore 20 years ago.

Appearing on Monday's This Morning, Jennifer Lopez reflected on her headline-grabbing moment last month, admitting she felt the 'electricity' in the room as she surprised the celeb-packed FROW with her runway appearance. 

Jennifer, 50, explained that she was in talks with Donatella Versace about how to celebrate the 20 year anniversary of the jungle print dress, that the star first wore to the 2000 Grammy Awards. 

J. Lo made HISTORY with VERSACE!

Jennifer Lopez has found her way back into the Versace dress that broke the internet in 2000.
The “Hustlers” star closed out Versace’s Spring 2020 show in a re-worked version of the revealing, bright green silk chiffon dress that she wore to the Grammy Awards 20 years ago.

 The dress quickly became a pop-culture phenomenon, causing complications for Google after too many people searched the combination of “J-Lo” and “Versace” at the time of the awards.
The dress even led to the creation of Google Images after it became clear that users were interested in finding photos on the internet, rather than simply text. Former Google CEO Eric Schmidt confirmed in a 2015 essay that the need for photo aggregation “first became apparent after the 2000 Grammy Awards, where Jennifer Lopez wore a green dress that, well, caught the world’s attention.”

“At the time,” Schmidt continued, “it was the most popular search query we had ever seen. But we had no surefire way of getting users exactly what they wanted: J­Lo wearing that dress. Google Image Search was born.”
And, according to a video of the runway walk that Lopez posted on Instagram, the significance of the dress clearly wasn’t lost on the attendees. Almost every audience member can be seen holding up their phones to capture the nostalgic moment, while audible cheers can be heard.

Donatella Versace, at the helm of the Italian fashion brand, told Vogue that the two had hatched the plan when they met at this year’s Met Ball. “The world stopped, everyone wanted to look at that dress… I’m proud we inspired Google Images,” Versace said. “You know when I do something, I really do it.”

Jennifer Lopez honored Jungle Print's 20th Anniversary!

It's a moment of fashion history that is invoked time and time again — whenever there's a red carpet, a J.Lo milestone, or Versace show: Jennifer Lopez's plunging tropical-print green Versace gown from the 2000s Grammys.

Over the past two decades, the dress has been consistently referenced and imitated. But no one can do it justice quite like J.Lo. So what's Versace to do when the brand wants to pay homage to it during Milan Fashion Week? Call up Ms. Lopez.

That's right: Jennifer Lopez walked the runway at Versace's spring 2020 show wearing a reimagined version of that Versace gown, in honor of the jungle print's 20th anniversary.

She took the stage after Amber Valletta (NBD). And of course, J.Lo got a standing ovation from the audience.

J. Lo in Versace Dress: Shocked the Fashion World!

The American recording artist and actress Jennifer Lopez wore an exotic green Versace silk chiffon dress to the 42nd Grammy Awards ceremony on February 23, 2000.

The sheer fabric was printed with a tropical leaf and bamboo pattern, and cut with a very low neckline that extended well past Lopez's navel, while the waist of the dress was studded with citrines.

This garment instantly received significant global media coverage, and it has been cited, along with Elizabeth Hurley's black Versace dress, as one of the most high-profile dresses that made the designer Versace a household name. In addition, this dress was described as a turning point in designer Donatella Versace's career after the death of her brother, Gianni Versace.

 It was chosen by the fashion journalist Lisa Armstrong to represent 2000 in the Fashion Museum of Bath's Dress of the Year collection, at which point it was described as a key example of the close relationship between fashions, celebrities and publicity.

Another duplicate of the dress is displayed at The Grammy Museum while, as of 2015, Lopez herself still owned the original gown.

Designed by Donatella Versace, it has been described as "jungle green", "sea green" or "tropical" green, a green dress with touches of blue to give an exotic appearance. It is a see-through silk chiffon dress with a tropical leaf and bamboo pattern, with a citrine-studded crotch. The dress "had a low-cut neck that extended several inches below her navel, where it was loosely fastened with a sparkly brooch and then opened out again," exposing her midriff

and then cut along the front of the legs like a bath robe.  The dress then drooped behind her on the floor, open at the back.  Under it, Lopez wore a pair of nude-tone bathing suit shorts and kept the dress on by using double-sided fashion tape. 

Lopez modelled a reimagined version of the dress at the Spring 2020 Versace show during Milan Fashion Week in September 2019
