Beauty & Brains

Brooke Bailey

Author: Paul W Arnold  @ hiphopdx.com

HipHopDX presents the final installment of Beauty & Brains special four-part series introducing the L.A.-based music models of the Bella Agency featured on the eye-popping reality docu-soap.

Having previously been introduced to the outspoken single mom, Terricka Cason, the “good girl” grad student, Olivia Jones, and the does-as-she-feels firecracker, Blanca Lopez, B&B is proud to present the determined diva of the Candy Girls, Brooke Bailey.

The South Central seductress is likely the most familiar of the show’s cast to the regular viewer of Hip Hop videos, and reader of print publications dedicated to the women who make the music modeling world go-round.

But the buxom beauty is more than just eye candy, as she revealed in her recent conversation with Beauty & Brains. The well-spoken self-starter, who although not always being as clothed as her mama would probably like, is remarkably unfettered by the traditionally tawdry trappings of the model life, firmly grounded in family and faith.

Beauty & Brains: The first, most important question I need to ask you is…do you always do your ironing topless [Laughs]?
Brooke Bailey:
[Laughs] Sometimes I do. [Laughs] That was the top I was gonna wear for the night [in the “Sin City Ultimatum” episode], so… I had the rest of my outfit on, and I was just missing the top [Laughs].

B&B: [Laughs] Yeah, your upper extremity has been a supporting cast member on the show.
Brooke Bailey:
I know! They need their own separate check [Laughs].

B&B: [Laughs] Now, on a slightly more serious note, your E! bio says “she understands exactly how valuable her time and beauty is and will find a way to be sure she is set for the future, possibly by one of the many men who are always chasing her.” Do you agree with that assessment of your aim? Do you need to be copping one of Olivia’s [click to read] nogolddigger t-shirts [Laughs]?
Brooke Bailey:
[Laughs] You know, I’m far from being a golddigger. I’m a very hard worker. And it just happens to be that the men I’ve dated, or do date, are very comfortable in life financially.

B&B: In the “Phoenix Rising” episode your shown going on a date with Red Café. Have you dated artists before?
Brooke Bailey:
Actually I haven’t. That was my first time going on a date with an artist. It was an experience. It was nice. It was fun.

B&B: It ended up costing you your boyfriend though, didn’t it?
Brooke Bailey:
Actually, we’re back together now. We’re in a committed relationship. We worked that little mishap… We fixed it.

B&B: That’s good to hear. It wasn’t gonna work with you and Red anyway. He wore a t-shirt to a nice restaurant. That wasn’t gonna work.
Brooke Bailey:
[Laughs]

B&B: [Laughs] Now in the “All-Star Groupie” episode, Terricka [click to read] is portrayed as some sort of groupie who only chases ball players. How commonplace is it in the industry for video models to hook-up with artists or other celebrities?
Brooke Bailey:
It’s very common, because that’s who were surrounded with. My famous line is if I worked a nine-to-five, then I’d probably date a nine-to-five guy. But, that’s not [who] I’m surrounded [by]. That’s not a part of my world. They just see the outcome of everything, and the reality of it is we party with A and B-list entertainers.

B&B: Did I read correctly that you’re a non-smoking, non-drinking Christian gal though?
Brooke Bailey:
I don’t smoke. I do drink. And I am a Christian girl. But I’m not perfect. [Laughs]

B&B: Does your family feel like you’re compromising your beliefs to be in the music modeling business?
Brooke Bailey:
Not at all. My family’s very supportive of everything that I do, because it’s not about what the people see on the outside, it’s about who I am on the inside.

B&B: You got into doing all this by happenstance, correct? You got discovered [by Ken Francis] via MySpace, right?
Brooke Bailey:
Right. And two weeks later I shot to be on the cover of Lowrider magazine with Ice Cube [click to read] [in 2006], and I shot a layout for SMOOTH Girl magazine. And six months later I did my first video.

B&B: So when did you leave Charlotte for L.A.?
Brooke Bailey:
Actually I’m from Los Angeles. I’m from South Central, Los Angeles. I just recently bought a home in Charlotte – a year ago this month. So I live back and forth.

B&B: Oh okay, I got it backwards. So you got like family down south?
Brooke Bailey:
Absolutely not. I went there to work, for the CIAA and the ACC [basketball tournaments] last year, and I loved it. I loved the city. It’s quiet. It’s slow. The people are really nice. So I decided to get a piece of property there.

B&B: It’s not South Central. [Laughs]
Brooke Bailey:
It’s not South Central. [Laughs] Continued on page 2 »
