I\u2019m half Japanese! I can also speak the language fluently. As a child I went to school in Japan when I would travel there to visit family during Australian school holidays &#8211; So I basically went to school all year round.<br \/>\n3. I\u2019m big on Astrology and Manifesting. On full moons I manifest, journal and charge my crystals under the moon light. I also carry a Jade crystal in my bag for good luck. <\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Who is your favourite entertainer?<\/strong><br \/>\nHonestly, every housewife on the Housewives of Beverly Hills. I have watched every episode and season at least 10 times. There is nothing better than watching rich housewives fight on reality television.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 An issue or cause you are passionate about: <\/strong><br \/>\nThe \u2018Stop Asian Hate\u2019 movement that grew after Covid 19. As someone who is half Japanese its very personal to me because growing up in Australia I experienced and witnessed casual racism. But I was also exposed to more serious cases of racism that was inflicted on my Japanese migrant mother and the effects it had on the community that my friends and family are a part of. <\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span class=\"modelname\">Noa<\/span><br \/>\n\n\t\t<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 {\n\t\t\t\tmargin: auto;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 .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: 33%;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 img {\n\t\t\t\tborder: 2px solid #cfcfcf;\n\t\t\t}\n\t\t\t#gallery-5 .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-5' class='gallery galleryid-70814 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-large'><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\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell02.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Noa Bell\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-5\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell02-731x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-5-70832\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell02-731x1024.jpg 731w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell02-536x750.jpg 536w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell02.jpg 952w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 731px) 100vw, 731px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-5-70832'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Noa Bell\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><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\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell01.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Noa Bell\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-5\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell01-731x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-5-70833\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell01-731x1024.jpg 731w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell01-536x750.jpg 536w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell01.jpg 952w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 731px) 100vw, 731px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-5-70833'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Noa Bell\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><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\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell03.jpg' title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\" class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"courtesy Noa Bell\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-5\" data-magnific_type=\"gallery\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"731\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell03-731x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large\" alt=\"\" aria-describedby=\"gallery-5-70831\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell03-731x1024.jpg 731w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell03-536x750.jpg 536w, https:\/\/i.mdel.net\/newfaces\/i\/2023\/10\/mdcselects_noabell03.jpg 952w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 731px) 100vw, 731px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/dt>\n\t\t\t\t<dd class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='gallery-5-70831'>\n\t\t\t\tcourtesy Noa Bell\n\t\t\t\t<\/dd><\/dl><br style=\"clear: both\" \/>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Who:<\/strong><br \/>\nNoa Bell (<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram.com\/noawithoutah\" target=\"_blank\">@noawithoutah<\/a>) \u2014 188 cm \/ 6&#8217;2&#8243; \u2014 American from Murrieta, California, USA \u2014 born October 17th \u2014 he\/him.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where:<\/strong><br \/>\n<a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/his-laboratory-management\">His Laboratory Management (Los Angeles &#8211; mother agency)<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/New-York-Model-Management\">New York Model Management<\/a>, <a href=\"\/\/models.com\/agency\/Next-LA\">Next LA (Los Angeles)<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 One thing you never want to do again:<\/strong><br \/>\nEat baby corn, it is disgusting!<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 Who is someone you admire and why?<\/strong><br \/>\nAlexander McQueen, he was able to create beautiful art that commented on the issues of the world, all while battling with his own mental health.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u2014 What are three interesting facts about you?<\/strong><br \/>\nI placed Top 8 in the world at the Pok\u00e9mon Trading Card Game 2019 World Championships.
