For example, my father is Chinese, which shocks a lot of people because I don&#8217;t have many Chinese traits. My mother is Brazilian and I have three brothers, two Portugueses and a Brazilian twin. I love them all so much!<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What are three interesting facts about you?<\/strong><br \/>\nThe first fact is that I have been a vegetarian since I was 14 years old. I have always been passionate about animals and over time, it didn\u2019t make sense to me, to love something so much and at the same time contribute to an industry that promotes its cruelty. The second is that I am a huge fan of Caetano Veloso, not only for me, he is one of the most brilliant Brazilian artists. Caetano manages to reflect all his genius in his lyrics, it is incredible.

I have always been very interested in sociology, studying aspects of our life, how we relate and think and why this fascinates me and certainly, is something that in the future I want to go deeper. And fashion, it has been a recent passion, when I was a little girl I played many games of \u201cdressing your doll\u201d and I thought it was great, today I see it as something more than just visual, I feel that it is a powerful way of expressing ourselves and telling our narratives, is an extension of our personality.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">Jan<\/span><br \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-4 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-4' class='gallery galleryid-66255 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Jan Franek\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-4\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek03-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-66265\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek03-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek03-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek03-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-66265'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Jan Franek\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Jan Franek\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-4\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek02-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-66266\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek02-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek02-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek02-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-66266'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Jan Franek\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Jan Franek\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-4\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek01-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-4-66267\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek01-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek01-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_janfranek01-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-4-66267'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Jan Franek\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nJan Franek (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/jan_kenarf\">@jan_kenarf<\/a>); 185.5 cm \/ 6&#8217;1&#8243;; Czech from V\u010deln\u00e1, Czech Republic; born March 18th.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\nPure Model Management (Prague &#8211; mother agency), <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/wonderwall\">Wonderwall Management (Milan)<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/le-management-hamburg\">Le Management (Hamburg)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What is something you wish you knew more about?<\/strong><br \/>\nThat\u2019s a really difficult question to be honest because I love learning in general, so I wish to know more about everything.

Throughout my childhood I&#8217;ve always had the same two dreams for the future: to become a model and to work at a space research center. These dreams have never changed, even though they seemed impossible. At some point, I gave up on these dreams and focused on studying language and art in university. But everything changed. I got scouted as a model and also finally had the courage to take physics and math classes. I&#8217;m working really hard on it now and hope to study (astro)physics in university, so that my second dream can come true as well!<br \/>\n2. One of the most important things to me is playing the drums. I started taking percussion lessons 9 years ago and was obsessed with it right away. Not much later I joined a drum band! The band is a big part of my life and feels like a second family. We have a band rehearsal every Friday and I look forward to it all week!<br \/>\n3. My most used nickname to this day is &#8216;Bob&#8217; (or Bobby). I&#8217;ve had many nicknames, but for some reason, this super random name just keeps sticking around and is being used by both my friends and my parents.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Among your friends or family, what are you famous for?<\/strong><br \/>\nAmong them, I&#8217;m probably famous for not being able to stand up when I&#8217;m laughing. My legs just turn into soft spaghetti strings&#8230; I can&#8217;t help it. Apparently, I also dance unconsciously at any random location, they seem to appreciate it though.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 How and when did you become a model?<\/strong><br \/>\nTwo years ago I was just walking around at a fair with my mom when I got scouted by a judge of Holland&#8217;s Next Top Model. I didn&#8217;t really believe that I could be a model, so to try it I took part in an event where you could present yourself to multiple Dutch and international modeling agencies. I was overwhelmed by the amount of interest. It was a big confidence booster and I decided to give modeling a try. I found a mother agency that I really liked and then signed with them.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">J\u00e9r\u00e9mie<\/span><br \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 .gallery-item {\n\t\t\t\tfloat: left;\n\t\t\t\tmargin-top: 10px;\n\t\t\t\ttext-align: center;\n\t\t\t\twidth: 100%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-6 .gallery-caption {\n\t\t\t\tmargin-left: 0;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t\/* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes\/media.php *\/\n\t\t<\/style>\n\t\t<div id='gallery-6' class='gallery galleryid-66255 gallery-columns-1 gallery-size-thumbnail'><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Lecocq\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq01-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-66273\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq01-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq01-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq01-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-66273'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Lecocq\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Lecocq\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq02-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-66272\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq02-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq02-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq02-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-66272'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Lecocq\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/><dl class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<dt class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Lecocq\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-6\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq03-300x300.jpg\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-6-66271\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq03-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq03-50x50.jpg 50w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2021\/05\/dd_jeremielecocq03-600x600.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-6-66271'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy J\u00e9r\u00e9mie Lecocq\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nJ\u00e9r\u00e9mie Lecocq (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/jeremie_lcq \">@jeremie_lcq <\/a>); 189 cm \/ 6&#8217;2.5&#8243;; French\/Malagasy from Antananarivo, Madagascar; born December 27th.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/current_project\/\">Current Project (Paris &#8211; mother agency)<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/special-management\">Special Management (Milan)<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Wilhelmina-London\">Wilhelmina London<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Who is someone you admire and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nAs I big sportsman myself, I\u2019ve always looked up to professional athletes, especially basketball players.
