Interview:
Hennywiz: For starters, where are you originally from and what’s your ethnic background?
Ellesse Danielle: I’m a west coast girl from Inglewood, California. I’ve lived there all my life. Both my mother and father are African American.
Hennywiz: What are your measurements?
Ellesse Danielle: I’m thick in the thighs, and slender in the waist. 34*25*38. I’ve always been very curvaceous.
Hennywiz: Congrats on getting the cover of the New Issue of Titanium Girlz. How was your experience working on the shoot?
Ellesse Danielle: I had a great time shooting with the photographers. I met so many amazingly talented people and established relationships that will potentially last a lifetime. I’m really looking forward to my next opportunity.
Hennywiz: What or who inspired you to explore career into the modeling industry?
Ellesse Danielle: For as long as I can remember I’ve always been tall. I was teased about my height as a child, but as I got older people would approach me and say, “You should be a model, or you look like a model…” After watching Kimora and Tyra, modeling became a way for me to be comfortable with my height. A few years into modeling, I realized I had a passion for it. Being on the cover of Titanium Girlz Magazine has given me the extra push I needed to make this dream a reality.
Hennywiz: Have you been featured in any other publications as of yet?
Ellesse Danielle: I’ve done Hype Hair magazine, and I’ve done a few online magazines. But I know the future holds more magazine covers, features, spreads, and print ads… I’m working hard to put Ellesse Danielle on the industry’s radar lol.
Hennywiz: Give a rundown some of the photographers you’ve worked with?
Ellesse Danielle: I’ve had the pleasure of working with some really talented photographers like Slickforce; Nadia Pandolfo; MRM; Tatianna Lavin; Red Room Studios, P Ranta Photography; Kem West… should I go on?
Hennywiz: A question I tend to ask models/vixens is, in this forever evolving business, new faces emerge by the minute. What separates “Ellesse Danielle” from your peers?
Ellesse Danielle: My photos are more like paintings… they have life to them. When you look at my photos… you become a part of it, it’s like I’m there with you. Everyone can’t give you that realism, and I’m the only one person that can give you ME. Not only do I take amazing photos, I also leave a good impression on people. Once you meet me, you’ll love me, and that’s cool because I have a natural love for people.
Hennywiz: Overall, what has been your opinion of the modeling industry?
Ellesse Danielle: The modeling industry is bitter- sweet. It’s tough, but full of opportunities and I’m totally ready for the challenges. The industry could use more “color”, more curves, and more natural beauty… and that’s all ME! lol
Hennywiz: What are some of your long term goals as you continue to progress in your career?
Ellesse Danielle: My goal is to be considered one of the hardest working models in the business. Runways… Magazines… videos… maybe even host a show, who knows?
Hennywiz: What other interest do you have besides modeling?
Ellesse Danielle: I’ve always believed I was a good actress lol. Although I’ve never had any professional training, I’m sure I’d do a good job.
Hennywiz: What are some of your hobbies?
Ellesse Danielle: I enjoy social networks, but in 2011 I believe we all enjoy social networks, lol. I enjoy reading, playing games and solving word puzzles, sometimes I can be a nerd… but I’m excited about anything that takes place outdoors, and cooking is one of my favorite things to do.
Hennywiz: Is acting in your plans for the future; is Ellesse bound for the big screen?
Ellesse Danielle: Yes, acting is definitely in my future.
Hennywiz: What would be a dream role for you?
Ellesse Danielle: A dream role for me would be something I could identify with. I didn’t grow up in the projects, but I can relate to that type of struggle through friends and family. A single mother, a school teacher, or even a local prostitute would represent the challenges in the African American community. I believe I can accurately portray those types of women and bring awareness to some people’s real-life struggles.
Hennywiz: How would you describe your fashion style?
Ellesse Danielle: My fashion style would have to be described as “personality meets reality.” I wear what I feel. My clothing style changes like the color on a mood ring. My clothes may compliment the mood I’m in or my attitude that day. I try to express those emotions through fashion. I’m very up to date… classy, but sexy.
Hennywiz: What genre of music are you into?
Ellesse Danielle: I love Rap music. I’m a Hip Hop and R&B diva, lol! Sometimes while driving, I enjoy listening to pop & country music.
Hennywiz: What type of mood music do you like during a photo shoot?
Ellesse Danielle: During a photo shoot, I like to hear club music. It’s up beat, and it helps bring out my “sexy.”
Hennywiz: What is one thing about yourself that tends to shock people once they get to know you personally?
Ellesse Danielle: People are shocked when they get to know me because I’m not as quiet as I appear to be when I first meet someone. Getting to know me is a very slow process. But once I’m comfortable, I’m outgoing and funny… one of the coolest people you’ll ever meet.
Hennywiz: What can we expect from you in the near future?
Ellesse Danielle: Please look for me in your favorite magazines; Professional print ads and editorial magazines. Promotional events, and trade shows… movies and television. ALWAYS look for me on the runway, and don’t forget to visit EllesseDanielle.com
Hennywiz: Where do you see yourself in the next 5 years?
Ellesse Danielle: In the next five years I will have graduated from college and started a business, in addition to exploring my modeling and acting careers. If I meet the right person, maybe we’ll be talking about marriage and children, you never know…

gphi…The fact that she said her photos have life to them & that you brcome part of them makes her seem more approachable to me. I agree with her about the modeling industry needing more color, more curves, & more natural beauty, & if that's her, then, more power to her LOL. If she thinks she's a good actress, I say go for it. I wear what I feel too, I jus pic out something, throw it on, & be done with it. PEACE!!!
