ELVIRA is a stunner! And I’m sure you won’t disagree with me. She also is very lovely and so easy to talk to, you can subscribe to her YouTube to get the idea. I totally fell for her sense of style and I keep stalking her on Instagram every day (babe you need to post more often!). We also have few things in common, but a love for food? Yaaaas! That’s a match! 😛
Where were you born and where do you call home?
I was born in Maryland, America but haven’t been back there since I was a baby. I grew up in Nigeria for a lot of my childhood so that’s definitely home home! London is where I live now so it’s home too.
If I came to your house for a dinner, what would you cook?
I’m half Italian and crazy for pizza and pasta so I would have to make you a lasagna just like my nonna makes. It’s the BEST lasagna you’ll ever try, promise. You’re welcome over anytime.
Have you ever eaten a crayon or a glue? Or what strange thing have you eaten?
When I was younger I used to like eating ants! They are a great source of protein 😉
What kind of people are you attracted to?
I like quirky, artistic and confident people. People that don’t take themselves too seriously but can also hold an intellectual conversation.
What’s your motto?
It’s always changing but right now it’s “trust the journey”.
What cheers you up?
Watching Friends on TV or hanging out with my friends. I need to be eating during both activities too! Food is my biggest comfort lol.
What was the last picture you took with your phone?
It’s a changing room shot of me trying on outfits in the mirror lol!
What is your favourite thing to spend money on?
Holidays, clothes and foooooooood!!
Ugly and live forever, or attractive and die in a year?
I definitely don’t want to die in a year so ugly and live forever.
What are you afraid of?
I’m scared of pigeons, I don’t like flies or bees or spiders. Basically anything that can fly or attack me from above!
Describe your personal style in 3 words:
Elegant, cool, downtown.
Have you ever stolen anything?
If I said yes would you judge me?
Pick two celebs to be your parents:
Beyonce and Jay Z, who else?
Do you dance crazy when no one is looking?
I dance crazy even if people are looking. Dancing is a form of expression, who cares what it looks like.
Do you like to sing in the shower?
Sometimes. Bathrooms has the best acoustics in the house so I like to practise my Grammy performances in there.
Favourite colour?
I think this is the weirdest question ever!! Like how can anybody choose. It makes no sense to me to have to pick one. I pick ALL!
Holiday destination?
I just came back from a holiday to LA and Las Vegas, which is definitely one of my best holidays. I’d love to visit Tulum, Thailand, New York and Cuba this year. Here’s hoping!
Favourite website?
I go on the Daily Motivator every morning because they have nice quotes to put me in a good mood for the rest of the day.
What is the longest you have gone without sleep?
I think I’ve only ever missed one night of sleep! I can’t function without at least a little nap 🙂
