Red Bull Indianapolis MotoGP
August 30th, 2010 by Elusive MediaWith the last few year’s GP, you never know what kinda weather you will get at Indy. For one, the first year it rained throughout the whole weekend and the leftovers from a hurricane ended the races early. This year, we had quite the opposite, clear blue skies, excellent racing weather! Qualifying is always an exciting time to see who will grasp the pole position. Jorge Lorenzo has been dominating this year poles and podiums. This weekend the American fans were treated to not only Ben Spies getting his first ever pole position in the premier class, but Nicky Hayden grabbing his first front row on the Ducati. It was one special moment for both in front of their home crowd.
Race Day is here and all rides start off strong, but after a strong FP1/2/Qualifying, Nicky Hayden has some issues with grip, catches a grain cover, which rips off his knee slider, because of this he wasn’t able to ride at his maximum, ending in a 6th position. Ben Spies, Jorge Lorenzo, and Dani Pedrosa took over the front where Ben tried to hold of Dani, but in the end Dani took him in the straight. Ben Spies tries to fight back, but can’t keep up with Dani’s pace. Despite losing Dani, Ben keeps a good grab between Jorge Lorenzo and finishes 2nd, which is the highest podium he has finished in the premier class. Jorge Lorenzo finishes 3rd, not happy with the ride, but happy to add some points to extend toward his first world championship in MotoGP.
Congrats to all riders! and for more news and exclusive video from this weekends race, visit motogp.com!!

Q&A
ElusiveMedia: You seemed to enjoy being a model, what got you started? Do you see yourself doing this for the long term?
Asianna Vanno: Actually I was doing hair and make-up for a photographer when he asked me to shoot for him. Talk about flattery (:
The more shoots I do, the longer I see myself modeling.
EM: So did modeling come naturally to you?
AV: Surprisingly yeah. I’m assuming it came with being an MUA/hairdresser and being exposed to photoshoots before hand. I got to know what works with what, what looks good on camera, what doesn’t, etc.
EM: What is the best part about being a model besides cameras snapping at you nonstop?
AV: The networking. You meet a lot of people and get access to things you didn’t before.
EM: Do you see yourself making a career of modeling?
AV: If the opportunity presents itself. As of now hair and make-up is where my passion lies.
EM: Outside of modeling, do you have any other career aspirations?
AV: Hair&make-up.
EM: What is the most awkward moment you’ve encountered in modeling?
AV: A creepy photographer once asked me what a “GWC” was.
I almost said, “You.”
EM: Best moment?
AV: Getting published in Superstar Magazine (:
EM: On a typical weekend, where can we find you or what are you doing when you’re not modeling?
AV: Spending time with my man, Mike, or my girls, Catherine and Eumy <3
EM: What do you have a weakness for?
AV: Shoes and good food.
EM: What message do you have to aspiring models trying to start out in the industry?
AV: First of, nudity is not required to become a model. Anyone who tells you that is a creep.
Second, if you don’t feel comfortable with someone, leave. There a plenty of other legit photographers out there.

“What makes the XDC series unique compared to other drift events?
The XDC is bridging the gap between professional drifters and the field of amateurs where competitors travel from across the globe on any single event to drift on world class tracks and courses. Competitors, rather than being localized, have come from Canada, Russia, Europe, Japan, and all across North America. They are a unique breed in themselves that cannot be classified. (more)”

Featured Model – Jessica ‘Jtezza’ Le
August 4th, 2010 by Elusive Mediaby: Jae
 |
Place of Birth: Columbia, TN Residence: Tampa, FL Occupation: Student Ethnicity: Austrian/English Hair Color: Brown/black Eye Color: Hazel Height: 5’4 Weight: 117lbs Measurement: 35/26/36 |
Q&A
ElusiveMedia: You seemed to enjoy being a model, what got you started? Do you see yourself doing this for the long term?
Jtezza: I began through photography- a buddy of mine was starting his photography career and needed a model. After practice and as new ideas began to arise, we started producing some awesome shots. That was nearly 4 years and what seems like a million shoots ago and looking back- I never thought I would love it even this much. So many opportunities continue to present themselves and each one has become a new adventure and I would love to continue for as long as possible.
EM: So did modeling come naturally to you?
Jtezza: Some aspects did- My facial expressions were descent, as with my posture, but the bravery and exaggeration it took to make the photos perfect was something I had to learn.
EM: What is the best part about being a model besides cameras snapping at you nonstop?
Jtezza: The ability to take ideas out of my head, dress up, and bring it to life in photos. Even at shows- its always the end result and looking back that gives me that accomplished feeling.
EM: Do you see yourself making a career of modeling?
Jtezza: Perhaps- I work for a few different companies right now that seem to be growing rapidly, and any opportunity I am given will get me one step closer to just that.
EM: Outside of modeling, do you have any other career aspirations?
Jtezza: Most people don’t believe this- but I actually love my car, I probably wont ever make a career out of it, but I enjoy racing it, occasionally drifting it (until that got a little rough on the car), and its always fun to leave little cocky boys a few cars back, hahaha. Also I have this dream of being a lawyer one day.
EM: What is the most awkward moment you’ve encountered in modeling?
Jtezza: I once dressed up as a fallen angel, with black wings and all, and did a shoot outside of a catholic church on a mid Saturday when it seemed to be fairly empty. LOL that was until a wedding party, including the priest came out the front door… all I could do was run.
EM: Best moment?
Jtezza: When I finally started seeing my pics in important places, like websites and such.
EM: On a typical weekend, where can we find you or what are you doing when you’re not modeling?
Jtezza: Lol- track, car meets, or as cliché as it sounds- doin some good old street racing… And those are really my only hobbies…
EM: What do you have a weakness for?
Jtezza: Bad boys (well one in particular right now, hahaha)
EM: What message do you have to aspiring models trying to start out in the industry?
Jtezza: Practice practice practice, never make it a job and it needs to be like a reflex, even today I am always so excited for a shoot because I know it will turn out good- I have the ability to make sure it does.
EM: Do you drive the IS much?
Jtezza: Daily driver- everyday- all the time, that car is my pride and joy. Somehow it became like a trademark for me, I guess since I actually do most the work on it myself and I guess that’s somewhat unbelievable.
EM: What is your dream car?
Jtezza: I have quite a few. I would love to try out the new LFA though. In case you live under a rock and haven’t heard of it, its Lexus’s supercar, go look it up, lol.
Fun Q’s
Top or bottom? Depends on my mood- but for the most part- doggie…hahaha
What do you wear to sleep? T-shirt and undies…
Best place you ever made _______? Lol a hospital parking lot… hahaha!
Tell us an interesting fact about yourself… I love strawberries and pepperoni together- it tastes amazing, try it!
What is the wildest thing you’ve ever done? Tried to wake board in 30 degree weather, didn’t go so well, lol.
