class=\"writeup\">\n<strong>Name:<\/strong><br \/>\nJamie Baah-Mensah<\/p>\n<p><strong>Agency:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href='https:\/\/models.com\/agency\/Models-1'>Models 1<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Age:<\/strong><br \/>\n20<\/p>\n<p><strong>Height:<\/strong><br \/>\n6&#8217;3&#8243;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Place of Origin:<\/strong><br \/>\nLondon, England<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ethnic Origin:<\/strong><br \/>\nGhanaian<\/p>\n<p><strong>Birthsign:<\/strong><br \/>\nAries<\/p>\n<p><strong>How discovered:<\/strong><br \/>\nThe very first time I was discovered I was up walking around central London trying to find a shirt for work and a scout that said they were from Ford NYC asked if I was a model and if I was interested in modelling. I didn&#8217;t know much about the industry so I was like no and wasn&#8217;t so keen. So I went home and told my mum and she was like, &#8220;it&#8217;s probably a scam and they will get you to pay for a \u00a3340 shoot and say they will make you a model like what they done to your sister&#8221; &#8211; lol . So then I didn&#8217;t bother to get back in contact with them. A few months later I went to a party and a girl approached me by the name of Beverly Abronama and was like &#8220;are you a model?&#8221; I was like no she was like you should consider it because you have a lot of potential and gave me a list of agencies I should go into. Models 1 was at the top of the list. I went in, they liked me, got signed, and the rest is history &#8211; lol. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite things:<\/strong><br \/>\nMy Beats by Dre headphones, my phone, and laptop.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite music, band:<\/strong><br \/>\n2Pac, Joey Badass, J Cole, Biggie Smalls, Kendrick Lamar, Erykah Badu, Lauryn Hill, Bob Marley, Janelle Monae<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite movie, tv show:<\/strong><br \/>\n<em>Set It off<\/em>; <em>Takers<\/em>; <em>Taken<\/em>; <em>Class Act<\/em>; <em>Boyz in da Hood<\/em>; House Party 1, 2 &#038; 3;  <em>Menace II Society<\/em>; <em>Juice<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite designer, fragrance or beauty product:<\/strong><br \/>\nFavorite designer at the moment is Alexander Wang. The shapes and cuts of their garments are sooo creative and sickk! \/ Paco Rabanne\/ Dettol soap and cocoa butter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What would you be doing if you weren&#8217;t modeling?<\/strong><br \/>\nIf I weren&#8217;t modelling I would be a full time student at University, which I am right now, lol. I attend Kent University and study Electronic Engineering and Communications.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s something uncool that you love anyway?<\/strong><br \/>\nEating fast\/fatty foods<\/p>\n<p><strong>Favorite modeling experience so far?<\/strong><br \/>\nDoing the One Direction music video on a field far away somewhere and swimming, running and laughing on set &#8211; it was a sick day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What&#8217;s the best thing about your hometown\/country?<\/strong><br \/>\nIn London the underground tube system which goes throughout London. And in Ghana there is a cloth called &#8220;Kente&#8221; which is apart of the culture and the fabric is woven with just simple wood and string. The designs which are created from it are amazing, it&#8217;s so beautiful&#8230; Google &#8220;Kente Cloth&#8221; and you will be sooo amazed that something so beautiful is made from such simple tools (a piece of wood and string) <\/p>\n<p><strong>Which brand would you really love to model for?<\/strong><br \/>\nDefinitely Alexander Wang, no doubt!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Place you would love to visit:<\/strong><br \/>\nBora Bora &#8211; it looks like heaven on earth on tv and in pictures.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Currently you&#8217;re obsessed with\/about:<\/strong><br \/>\nCopella apple juice, red velvet cake, and lately Rihanna.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A fan of red velvet cake, Janelle Monae, and Alexander Wang, Jamie Baah-Mensah, 20, from London, is the latest newcomer to nab Model of the Week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":31349,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1,11],"tags":[2389,270,69],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31347"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=31347"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31347\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":31363,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/31347\/revisions\/31363"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/31349"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=31347"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=31347"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/models.com\/newfaces\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=31347"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
