Kick off football season with the Barron twins

Well, loyal reader, you no doubt have noticed that the content on Fox Tracks has not been updated as frequently as usual. I won't go into any details as to why, but I do apologize that I have not kept this going as planned. I know you love the great content you've come to expect and I will do my best to bring it to you.

However, football season is now upon us and I have some good stuff to share. So while you may be thinking about formations, tailbacks, and touchdowns, we here at Fox Tracks think that nothing says football season like...twins. That's right, loyal reader. Twins. Say hello to Kari and Ashley Barron, who appear courtesy of SoCal Glamour Girls.

The Afterdarks: the best thing that ever happened to hot-rodders and beer sales

[Photo of The Afterdarks by Josh Ford.]

The Afterdarks is a band from Quad Cities that I first heard on Radio Free Bakersfield. Papa D discusses what is essential to every Afterdarks song, and why you should have the band's music in your collection.

Complete the sentence. The Afterdarks is...

The best thing that's ever happened to hot-rodders and beer sales

What is essential to every song of The Afterdarks?

We don't really stick to a formula. But, we try to use elements that invoke an emotion that the end of everything is coming, so it might me a damn good idea to get up and dance!

What is essential to every show?

Blood, sweat, beer, and dancing, preferably at night of course.

Why should I have your music in my collection?

Because if you didn't, you'd be kicking yourself 10 years from now for missing out on all the fun.

What would you be doing if you weren't making music?

I don't even want to think about how bleak that future would be. I'd probably be pumping gas or teaching physics.

Want some tunes by The Afterdarks? You can hear 29 (that's right, 29 full tracks) of them on ReverbNation.

Fox of the Week (8/18/10): Sativa Blaze

Sativa Blaze is a model originally from northern California now living in Atlanta. She discusses her best feature, the books she is writing, and a perfectly sexy day.

Complete the sentence. Sativa Blaze is...

Sativa Blaze is one of the realest females that you will ever meet.

What would you say is your best feature?

My best feature I would say is my brain, and I am not talking about anything sexual (right now). My mind is the my best feature and that is the second thing I hear the most other than you are beautiful, I hear you are really intelligent.

What was your first modeling gig? Describe how you felt at that first gig.

My first modeling gig was a fashion show in Sacramento, CA and I was in a fashion show for crotchet swimsuits. I had never done a fashion show before and I was super nervous. Since I was working at Barbizon I had my walk down pat. After talking myself through it I strutted down the "runway" and did my thing. It was so fun, it was also my first paid gig. I even showed my rap skills after the show.

You are working on two books. Without giving too much away, what are the books about?

The two books that I am working on are urban fiction, both which have a positive message in both. One about 4 teens in their senior year of school, the other about 2 urban young adults in their walk into their Christianity.

What is harder, writing a book or modeling?

Modeling is harder. I am a natural writer and it comes easy. Modeling is harder because it takes much harder work and you are constantly trying to stay relevant in the game.

Describe a perfectly sexy day or evening (including what you would or wouldn't wear).

A perfect sexy day would be waking up to the right guy (or girl) and spending the day eating, enjoying some wine, and going to museums or some type of arts event. I would keep it simple but sexy, my favorite cool out outfit are some dark denim skinny jeans, white tank top, and some banging shoes and accessories to complement my outfit. Oh did I forget shopping?

If you could only accomplish one more thing, what would it be?

I am a career student who still hasn't gotten that piece of paper to go along with all my years in school, so I know that I need to finish that as soon as possible.

Can I get an amen? The Gospel According to the Barstool Preacher

Once again I turn my attention to the Subculture Collective for a music feature. After discovering the Lonestar Texabilly show, I decided to explore some of the other shows in the collective. The Gospel According to the Barstool Preacher certainly is a name that catches my attention.

I downloaded Episode 72 and the Barstool Preacher played a lot of good stuff: Old 97s, Lucero, Cave Catt Sammy. He also dipped into plenty of classics like Buck Owens, Merle Haggard, and Hank Williams. I didn't hear one song I didn't like. Plus, he played a lot of tunes that I have in my collection already.

That being said, the Barstool Preacher took way too long in between songs, sometimes talking for seven or eight minutes between sets of songs. I know that part of the charm of podcasts is that they are not structured like commercial radio. However, people tune into podcasts more for the music than for the host. I don't say that to be rude or mean. I'm just being honest and making a fair assessment. Still, this podcast is worth checking out because the host plays so much good music.

Fox of the Week (8/11/10): Amber Proffitt

Amber Proffitt (36D-26-40) is a model from West Haven, Connecticut. She discusses a sexy evening, placing fourth in her first modeling competition, and why you can't say no to her.

Complete the sentence. Amber Proffitt is...

An intelligent woman with more than just a face and body. Ambitious and motivated, currently in the process of being a business owner real soon.

What would you say is your best feature?

My round puppy eyes. When you look at them you just can't say no!

Describe a perfectly sexy day or evening.

Well a sexy evening first consist of drinking a glass of wine and running a hot bubble bath, play a little music then maybe masturbate. (laughs) Oh did I say that? We'll just say I like to stay in touch with my feminine side.

What was your first modeling gig? Describe how you felt at your first gig.

I was in the Ms EXXXotica competition, and I'm not going to lie. I do not get nervous often but I was extremely nervous. There were so many beautiful women on that stage with me. I did end up getting 4th place but that experience definitely loosened me up.

What makes a "wow"-worthy photo?

Versatility!

Who are some models you admire? Why?

I would probably have to say current model Tammy Torres, she definitely stays humble beyond the scene.

If you can only accomplish one more thing, what would it be?

To be at the top of the game.

Follow Amber on Twitter.

First Anniversary Fox (8/4/10): Debra McDonald

Yes, loyal reader, you read that correctly. It was one year ago that this site kicked off, and it all began with a feature of Melissa Irish-Brown. I truly appreciate all the models and musicians that have made this site possible and all the readers who keep coming back.

The First Anniversary Fox is a tremendous model (just as all the Foxes of the Week are). Debra McDonald is a model from Opa-Locka, Florida. I think you'll agree that she is a tremendous way to celebrate a year of models and music. In fact, you know the normal format is a Q&A with the model and 3 photos. Well, for this week, I am going to break format slightly for two reasons. First, one year of Fox Tracks seems like a good reason to give you more photos. Second, this model's photos are so amazing, I couldn't pick only three. And so, without further ado, I present Debra McDonald.

Complete the sentence. Debra McDonald is...

A walking piece of art that enjoys life: a very outgoing, energetic and an all around fun person to be around.

What was your first tattoo and what compelled you to get it?

My first tattoo was a panther on my back. I got it because every one else was getting the panthers and the paw prints. Yes it is covered up now because as I got older and more into art and tattooing I learned to be myself and always decide for me and what I want not on what another has or what the trend is. Hell, I could have been stuck with that mess on me for life---and it was ugly (laughs). But what can you expect when you are stealing ink out of the art room and have your home boy that can draw inking you with a needle, some alcohol and a straight pin. By the way...I got my ass beat when my mom found out! I was 14.

What is your favorite tattoo?

I don't have a "favorite" because everything on me represent some thing different and plays its special role on my body so i guess it would be my entire body because all like one big picture.

Describe a perfectly sexy day or evening, including what you would or wouldn't wear.

A perfectly sexy day: getting tattooed, having some drinks and ________ all night long because the tattooing sensation turns me on! But on a more PG-13 level...I would say that perfectly sexy evening would consist of wearing a spaghetti-strapped silk dress that falls just a little above my ankles with no panties (for no lines of course) and setting a canopy outside in the back yard with flickering candles and twinkling white light. Have a table set for two with champagne or red wine or take it further with some Patron margaritas. Have a specially prepared meal and dessert while listening to a customized playlist on the iPod. After eating, dance together under the lights. After getting both our bodies all worked up take him in the house to a rose petal bath filled with candles that we will share together. I will bathe him but let him watch me sensually bathe myself. Once he can't take any more we ______. (Y’all can use your imagination for the rest.)

Who are some models you admire? Why?

To be completely honest, there are no models that I admire. I take my hat off to those that made it, stayed true to themselves and didn't sell their soul for a publication or a job, those that had to actually work and grind to be called and considered a model.

If you could only be featured in one more publication, which would you want it to be?

I have two - sorry - you know I couldn't just say one (laughs).
Cosmopolitan because it is largest-selling young women's magazine in the world and is famous for its upbeat style, focus on the young career woman and candid discussion of contemporary male/female relationships. Since its founding in 1886, Cosmopolitan has been reporting on modern social trends.
The other one would be Elle because fashion, beauty and entertainment news are found inside Elle magazine. With celebrity stories - not gossip - and guides to finding the best fashion and beauty styles to suit you, Elle brings the superstar look to the average lady and allows you to find your most beautiful self at any age.

What is one thing you hope to accomplish?

The one thing I hope to accomplish is change within the modeling industry. I have had so many doors close in my face because I wasn't your typical model (slim, tall, and cleaned skinned) for the mainstream marketing and for a lot of the more urban markets I wasn't getting naked, spreading my legs or having sex with the photographer or magazine owner or editor. I want to bring light that you are beautiful no matter your size, height, shape, tattooed or not. I want to be the first woman of color, full bodied tattooed that has a cover and a layout in one of those top magazines, on billboards for clothing designers and hopefully having the opportunity to start my own clothing line. I just want people to see that there are more women that look like me and more men that like them than what the industry has tried to portray.

The Pickled Hand of Nate (Uncle Sal Chronicles vol. 2) available now

Loyal reader, I have some big news. I have published a second collection of my Uncle Sal Chronicles, entitled The Pickled Hand of Nate. Order your copy today. It's only $9.95 + s/h.

Check out Lonestar Texabilly Radio for good rockabilly, psychobilly

Well, loyal reader, by now you have noticed that the music features have been pretty irregular recently. I won't spend too much time bemoaning that fact. I will only say that I haven't been getting much response from music artists. But the show must go on, right?

I recently found a podcast (so much better than commercial radio) called Lonestar Texabilly Radio. I caught up with the podcast in episode 6, which begins with a cover of "La Isla Bonita" by Happy Drivers. To be honest, I cannot stand Madonna, but this song was pretty good, enough to keep me listening.

This podcast features hard-to-find rockabilly and psychobilly tunes. Episode 6 features songs from Cave Catt Sammy ("Your Money Makes You Purty"), King Sickabilly, Hillbilly Moon Explosion, and others. Overall, the host plays a lot of worthwhile tunes that are bound to keep your toes tapping. In episode 6, he did talk a little more than he needed to, but I'm interested enough to check the next episode when it comes around.

Fox of the Week (7/28/10): Chi Chi Bonita

Chi Chi Bonita is a model who was born in Germany and lives in Charlotte. She discusses a perfect evening, the challenges of modeling, and the modeling job she would never decline.


Complete the sentence. Chi Chi Bonita is...

Determined to be great, don’t be jealous, embrace her! (laughs)

Thong, boyshorts, other or none?

None, I really don’t like underwear, my friends hate it when I walk around them naked. (Author's note: Ummm...really? Why?)

Describe your idea of a sexy (day or) evening.

My idea of a sexy evening would be started off by cooking dinner together with my significant other. Then we would sit at a candlelit table and just talk until our food was finished. Next, we watch a funny movie and just hold each other while finishing dessert. Then maybe we make some magic. (laughs)

Describe how you felt at your first photo shoot.

At my first photo shoot I was pretty scared because I didn’t know what to expect but once that camera started clicking I knew this was it. I found my niche and I just went with the flow letting everything come natural.

What is the most challenging thing about modeling?

The most challenging thing about modeling is the prejudices you have to deal with. Everyone thinks that they know what type of female you are just because of the pictures you take. It’s very hard to make a name for yourself in this business so you have to make sure you are doing things to set yourself apart from the wannabes.

Who are some models you admire? Why?

I admire any and all models that are doing things right in the business. I feel like any woman who is modeling and still living by her morals and beliefs is a rarity nowadays so I salute them!

What is the one modeling gig you would not turn down?

Playboy!

Make sure you follow me on Twitter and add me on Facebook!

Fox of the Week (7/21/10): Kaeo Black

Kaeo Black is a model from LA (and yes, she is a knockout, isn't she?). She discusses her first photoshoot, cooking for her man, and a model she admires.

Give us a quick course in Kaeo 101.

My name is Kaeo Black (pronounced K.O...I know I'm a knock out right). My name actually means "The Victorious" in Thai. I'm a model looking to network, work with you, or be of some service. I'm a cool, down-to-earth chick and I like to chill and hang out. I love the Lakers. I love to travel and I am hoping to be able to go backpacking around Europe one day soon. That would be amazing! Other than that I can chill and hang out with my friends and loved ones. Some of my hobbies include sewing(so everything can fit like a glove), cooking, hiking, and my new found love pole dancing. (Not that I want to be a stripper or anything but its really good cardio and it just upgrades your sexy). I just love being the center of attention where ever I go! I am a chemistry and womens studies major at Santa Monica College, hoping to transfer fall 2011 to UCLA. I want to do research in the women's health field, probably on lupus or sickle cell. I am a very intelligent, well spoken model and I want to prove to the world that a model can have both brains and beauty.

You enjoy cooking. What would you cook (the entire meal) for your
significant other for an occasion like a birthday? What would you wear for
the occasion?

I love to cook and bake just about anything! First off, the birthday dinner would be the favorite dish of my man at the time. But if I had to pick, I'd pick one of my favorite dishes. I always like to start off with a fresh salad before any meal. I love mixed green salad with Italian dressing. For dinner I'd make him shrimp penne pasta with a creamy basil pesto sauce, and garlic bread on a sourdough loaf. And I'd add a little fresh basil and chopped dried tomatoes on top for garnish. To drink, I'd probably choose a French Chardonnay or an Italian Pinot Grigio. For dessert I'd hand make him chocolate covered strawberries and feed them to him. As far as my wardrobe goes I would wear a wife beater and a pair of his boxers. I think if a woman can pull this look off and still be sexy she's a keeper! I don't always have to be in lingerie to keep my man's attention.

Describe how you felt at your first photoshoot.

My first photo shoot was a DISASTER! The photographer was such a pervert and made me feel so uncomfortable! He was growling and making sexual passes at me the entire time I was shooting. I think he thought he was making me feel sexy, but he was actually making me feel uncomfortable and nervous. I was so happy I brought a friend with me to the shoot though. After that I was done with modeling! Luckily about a month later a friend of mine shot with a photographer I'd been talking back and forth to on Myspace and told me how sweet and professional he was. So I decided to give it another try with him. I am so happy I did because I haven't stopped since!

Who are some models you admire? Why?

I really admire Suelyn Medeiros. She's extremely beautiful and she seems really sweet even though I don't know her personally. None of her posts on twitter are ever bitchy or negative and I love that! I am a very positive and humble person and I feel like she has that same attitude. I hate a woman that thinks shes the baddest chick in the world because there is always a woman in the world that's prettier. I know we should all be confident but there is a way to show your confidence without being arrogant and cocky. I think she's gorgeous and I would love to meet her one day!

What is one modeling job you would never turn down?

I'd never turn down a modeling job that I could potentially learn and gain experience from. Gaining knowledge and meeting people is more important to me than the actual job itself, because in this industry sometimes you can get farther solely on who you know.

If you could only accomplish one more thing, what would it be?

If I would accomplish just 1 more thing, it would be to be in a fashion add on a billboard on Sunset. My ultimate modeling goal is to be on a billboard and I would love for it to be where everyone can see it, so why not have it on Sunset Blvd!

Describe a perfectly sexy evening.

A sexy evenin for me...hm...wearing a nice fitted dress (no underwear) with the tallest stillettos possible. Inside of a South Beach club surrounded by the stars and friends.

Who are some models you admire? Why?

Buffie the Body because she changed that light-skinned versus the dark-skinned modeling stereotype. She is a great example of taking what she has to get what she wants. She has workout videos, books, comics, and more. She basically stepped out of the box and did something other than the norm. Also Tyra Banks to pick her brain and absorb all of the information she was offering to release. She has gone above and beyond everyone’s expectations.

What one modeling gig would you never turn down?

Music Videos because it allows me to be even more creative by becoming a totally different character.

If you could only accomplish one more thing, what would it be?

My own dvd titled, ALL THE WAY LIVE.

The Sumner Brothers: singin' like hound dogs

The Sumner Brothers is a band from Canada, currently working on a new album with a tentative release sometime this fall.

What is essential to every Sumner Brothers song?

Hopefully...that it's worth listening to

Why should I have your music in my collection?

So you can support a couple poor fellas from Canada who got no other skills other than pluckin at a 6-string and singing like hound dogs

If you could write and perform a song with one artist, who would you choose? Why?

The Streets - just think they're the best thing going right now, that I've heard - there's a lot of good stuff, but they're the best. And I'm speaking for myself of course. My brother Bob might have a very different opinion.

What would you be doing if you weren't making music?

Mailman, city worker, delivering papers, truck driver - something where I had to work with as few other people as possible.

Check out "Ant Song" by The Sumner Brothers.

Fox Tracks model update: Kitty Kennedy is everywhere

The lovely Creole China Doll Kitty Kennedy was featured right here on Fox Tracks in February. Recently, she has been featured in:

Black Stallionz

Fox of the Week (7/7/10): Caramel Coated Chrissy

Caramel Coated Chrissy is a model originally from New Orleans. She was referred to us by Fox Tracks favorite Kitty Kennedy. You're in for a treat this week, dear reader.

Give us a quick course in Caramel Coated Chrissy 101.

I’m a 29 year old full-time mother & part-time model originally from New Orleans. I began modeling only about a year ago when my best friend & now manager Kitty Kennedy got me started in the business. I’ve been published quite a few times since then and have plenty of features that I’m presently waiting on being being released.

Describe how you felt during your first photoshoot.

My first photoshoot was a scary, but fun experience for me. I was really nervous in the beginning, but both Kitty & the photographer Ralph Lenard made me very comfortable. Ralph is a great photographer to work with and he made me feel sexy, which calmed me down and brought out something in me I didn’t know I even had. I know that sounds crazy!

What do you find most challenging about modeling? What do you find most rewarding?

In the beginning the most challenging thing for me was how to control my facial expressions. Even after all of this time, I’m still working on that. I sometimes struggle with the things I’m dealing with in life while shooting, and I’ve learned that’s a big no-no! Everything you feel shows on your face, so I try to leave the outside world on the outside so that I can focus on being a beautiful fantasy in someone else’s eyes. The most rewarding thing is seeing myself published. I love that!

What is the one modeling gig you would never turn down?

Either to shoot with someone in the business that I admire, or to have to travel to a place I’ve never been to do a shoot.

If you could only accomplish one more thing, what would it be?

I’d like to be on the cover of a major publication, not just featured on the inside.

Naked and Shameless = Drunkabilly

Complete the sentence. Naked and Shameless are...

Drunkabilly (good times and strange salvation).

Describe how the Beer-Naked wedding came about.

Buck realized how much he loved beer. Dave said, "if you love beer so much, maybe you should marry beer." It was a phenomenal event.

What is essential to every Naked and Shameless song?

A theme or a concept and a boatload of references.

Every Naked and Shameless show?

A quorum of drunks to whoop and holler.

Why should I have your music in my collection?

Because there will be times where you'll have to tell someone to check something out...because it really shouldn't exist...the kind of stuff you'll remember at 3am when the party makes that turn...

If you could write and perform a song with one artist, who would you choose? Why?

Buck: Tom Waits. He has a man crush on Tom Waits.
Dave: Mojo Nixon. Unbeknownst to Mojo, he's the godfather of drunkabilly. Or William Shatner.

What would you be doing if you weren't making music?

We get into plenty of trouble, even without the music. We're always looking for other ways to document the madness.

Fox Tracks model update: Coli Hellraiser

Petite model Coli Hellraiser was featured here in December. Recently she was featured at Model Mansion and Cutie Central. Can you think of any model who is more suited for a site called Cutie Central? The photo you see here is just a taste of what you'll see in her feature.

Psychostick: pure concentrated humorcore

Psychostick is a band from Phoenix. Singer Rawrb discusses what is essential to the band's music, the recent tour with Nashville Pussy, and with whom he would like to write and record a song.

Complete the sentence. Psychostick is...

Pure concentrated Humorcore.

What is essential to every Psychostick song? What about every Psychostick show?

The Psychostick song formula goes like this: Song idea + laughter + more ideas + procrastination = GOLD. Well, maybe aluminum. Something like that. As for our shows, we strive to keep things flowing with intensity and humor. This sort of combination I find rare in live shows, and while we're not exactly pioneers in this regard, we hope to bring it up to the next level.

Describe your experience touring with Nashville Pussy.

Our touring experiences with Nashville Pussy was enlightening. We made great buddies with their sound guy Mark. Matter of fact, we even hit up a Barcade for drunken video game adventures.

If you could write and perform a song with one artist, who would you choose? Why?

I'd like to write and record something with Weird Al. There's a ton of great metal artists that I'd like to work with, but I've been listening to Weird Al for a long time and he's such an inspirational guy. Maybe someday!

Is the song "Girl Directions" inspired by a true story?

It's based on a plethora of true stories. I first ask for an address. Then they'll usually start giving directions before I get an address. Afterwards I'll ask, "Can I have the address just in case I screw up your directions?" Works every time.

What would you be doing if you weren't making music?

I'd either be building websites or designing video games. I'm probably going to strive for video game design once we decide touring makes us want to vomit all over our feet.

Fox of the Week (6/16/10): Jessica Marie

Note: Unfortunately, I did not receive any photos of Jessica Marie. Check the links for her pictures. They are definitely worth the time.

Give us a quick course in Jessica Marie 101.

I am Mexican-American, born and raised in Naples, Florida. I am pretty new to the modeling industry but so far I absolutely love it! I hope to get published in magazines soon and be able to inspire someone that is also in this industry. Even though I have a passion for modeling, I am a nurse and plan to gets my Masters degree to become a Physician’s Assistant. I am very persistent, funny and always looking for ways to push me one step further to pursuing my goals.

What has been your favorite modeling job so far?

I have been in a few fashion shows and I would have to say being in front of people and walking down the runway is a great feeling.

In what artist's video would you most like to appear? Why?

I am a big fan of Hip-hop and R & B, so it would kind of hard to choose a few. I would love to be featured in a video with Ne-Yo, his videos always seem to get my attention and I feel that I would be a good match in one of his videos (hint hint, Ne-Yo).

Who are some models you admire? Why?

In my opinion I couldn’t narrow it down to admire just one model or even have a favorite. To me all models inspire each other in their hard work and dedication; we all have something unique about us in every way. There are so many types of models and and all have to put in that extra credit to get where we want to be in their career.

What is the most rewarding aspect of modeling?

One of the most rewarding aspects would have to be people looking up to you not only as just a model but as an individual person and someone that you could possibly be a role model to and set a good positive example for others.

If you could only accomplish one more thing, what would it be?

One thing about me is I love to help others and If could make a difference in someone else’s life than that would mean the world to me. So by opening a charity of some sort that would benefits all types of individuals to help them get a good education, job, counseling to help them get through everyday life. This is something that I hold close to my heart so by giving a piece of me to do good in others is a big accomplishment.

Mistah Maj: my motivation is music 100%

Mistah Maj is a hip-hop artist from the Bronx. He discusses his style, his motivation, and artists he admires.

Complete the sentence. Mistah Maj is...

One of a kind, an entrepreneur for generations to come.

Describe your style for someone who has never heard your music.

Versatile, I can adjust my style for all things possible...RnB, Hip-Hop, etc.

What sets you apart from other artists?

I have the drive to make everything I do a hit. My talent is beyond hip-hop. I write songs, act, and I'm in the process of producing. My motivation is music 100%

Who are some artists you admire? Why?

Fabolous because he's a nonstop hitmaker whether it's street or commercial. Drake because he's a breath of fresh air to the industry. Jadakiss because he's an ultimate lyricist. Nas because he makes you think and for me his music drives me to become a better lyricist.

If you could write and perform a song with one artist, who would you choose? Why?

Usher because I feel he's the perfect person to make a hit record with and get the respect and recognition deserved.

What would you be doing if you weren't making music?

Pursuing a career in psychology. I feel nowadays artists tend to forget that it's good to have a back up plan even if you have longevity in this business. It's never too late to go back to school or to finish school: better late than never is the code I live by.

Fox of the Week (6/9/10): Nikkii Na'Shay

Complete the sentence Nikkii Na'shay is...

Describe a perfectly sexy evening.

Hmm a perfectly sexy evening would be me sipping on some wine enjoying my day with nothing on.

Acting has always been a dream of mine as well.

What would be your dream acting job?

To be in a John Singleton film.
