super sexy model

 

Born in Brooklyn, Melanie Iglesias is a New Yorker in it's truest sense. Not only has she lived all over New York City, but she unites just as many ethniticites as the city herself.

This super sexy model has a little bit of everything - Filipina, Spanish, Italian, Puerto Rican, and Brazilian.

Along with her seven other siblings, Melanie Iglesias' childhood was damaged by the friction of her parents' divorce and the struggles of maintaining stability while constantly moving.

New homes meant new schools, and it was her high school music teacher Joanne Nolemi who initially recognized Melanie’s inherent talent and ambition.

Not to rest just on her looks, this sassy sexpot has also tried her hand at singing. "What I figured out is if you really want something you can't try to be a jack-of-all-trades, you have to master your craft" Iglesias says of her new found musical career.

"My songs are motivational, they denote a struggle in an up-lifting way; they are songs to make women feel better, to empower us".

She doesn't just want to be a flash in the pan either, making sure the products she creates are of the highest quality "I've had major people interested in me. I turned them down because they had their own vision and it wasn't matching mine. 

 

There is a way this is going to work for me without changing who I am, without changing any part of me" she says.

Iglesias is aiming high, with superstars like Jay Z and Janet Jackson among her biggest idols, "When [my manager] told me someday I could be like Janet I said, 'Leave Janet out of this! No one can touch Janet'. It doesn’t mean I'm not aiming for that, though" she was quoted as saying.

She stands no taller than 5’7” and was recently named a top ten finalist as New York’s representative in this year’s Maxim Hometown Hotties competition. She is also a member of the World Poker Tour’s Royal Flush Girls.
