What were you doing before answering these questions and what will you be doing after?
“Before answering these questions I was sat in an airport eating a pack of Haribo Star Mix and Golden Bears at the same time whilst watching Mr. Robot on Amazon Prime waiting for my flight. After I will be doing the same thing but on a train to central Berlin.”

Sasha Korotky, 186 cm / 6’1″, Belarusian, born May 21st.
We Asked:
Who is someone you admire and why?
“I really admire people who weren’t changed over time by this cruel world. People who stayed as kind as they were in the beginning of their path.
As they say, money only helps to open the essence of a person. So I especially admire people who are not spoiled by money, as well as ambitious people like Elon Musk, who’s been a great role model for me and always inspired me and thousands of other people.
As for the heroes, my hero is probably Keanu Reeves. Because, as I said earlier, I think that he is really authentic and real. And after all the difficulties, tragedies and also a huge success, he stayed human.”
What is one thing people may be surprised to find out about you?
“My age. A lot of people don’t believe me when I say that I’m 16. Everybody thinks that I’m much older. And the second thing is my red hair. Basically, people don’t believe that it is real and natural. So I get a lot of questions about it.”
What are your interests/favorite things?
“Most of my life I was swimming and could not imagine my life without this sport. But two years ago I had to quit swimming and start looking for myself in something else. A year after that, I discovered modeling and I was totally captured by the thought of being a model.Among other things I like, I would like to mention drawing and music, as they occupy a very important place in my life and bring me a lot of fun!”
