Many have decided to just write the year 2020 off and for most parts I don't blame them, its been one hell of a shit show but it's what we make from it that matters I suppose. Some are using the extra time to better themselves, others see the lockdown as a blessing in disguise which is helping them save but there's no doubt its having a major effect on everyone's mental health which is why we're taking a breather today on the blog by giving you, the readers something refreshing to read. The Bucket Babe returns with another beauty from Mzanzi who has a passion for cars and knows how to make a great sandwich, meet this months featured model.

Dominique Wagner

BIO

LI'm Dominique Wagner, I am 21 years old and I have been with MMM Agency for more than a year now and I have been given opportunities and learning experiences I never would have if they did not sign me. I am your typica Aquarius, I struggle with anxiety and depression, it is something I am trying to overcome. F1 on a Sunday seems to be my new thing! I love kicking my feet up and falling asleep during the race. I am currently working on my BCom Law degree which I will complete by this year November and thereafter looking to immigrate to Dubai next year. I do not have other hobbies besides modeling, which has now picked up as a career... I should probably find one soon.

Q&A

1. Hot girls and hot cars go hand in hand, what ride would you like to  see yourself in?

• It would depend on the drive... either an Audi R8 or a Chevrolet Bel Air if we are doing a sunset drive.

2. What sandwich are you most likely to make for me? and will it be toasted or plain?

• I love me a good toasted cheese, toasted the traditional way. Butter on the outside of two fresh slices of white bread, with gouda cheese which will be fried in a pan. 

3. Everyone loves popcorn (well I think they do) what is your topping/ sprinkle of choice?

• I am a ride or die salt and vinegar fan... sometimes I burn my taste buds alive at the cinema.

4. Dream cover shoot?

• VOGUE. 

5. If given a choice, full time model or full time executive, what would you choose?

• Full time model, it is a passion of mine, it would be a privilege to have to have that type of opportunity as most people are extremely unhappy with their jobs. Modeling is also hard work do no get me wrong, most people think it' just standing around looking pretty but those people can come chat to me about their energy levels after a three hour shoot.  

6. Growing up you must have had someone you aspired to be, so who is your role model?

• Marilyn Manroe, my mom always had her face all around the house. Recently I was given a vintage magazine from Canada, that my Grandad gave my mom as a souvenir from his visit there. It contains so many unpublished images of Marilyn.

7. Anyone holding that hand yet? or is it available?

• It's complicated, hahaha!.

8. Obviously being a female you would love fashion. Favourite label/ designer?

• I do not have the most expensive taste (yet) but I am loving Pretty Little Thing, Fashon Nova and our very own The Lot. 

9. What type of music gets your booty shaking?

• Hip Hop... anything with or by Nicki Minaj.

10. Which city is your dream party destination?

• It;s a tie between Bali and Ibiza.

Q&A

1. Hot girls and hot cars go hand in hand, what ride would you like to  see yourself in?

• I am definitely an Audi girl, love the design, the way they drive so currently right now I'd love to see myself in a R8.

2. What sandwich are you most likely to make for me? and will it be toasted or plain?

• I love cooking and baking but strangely enough I never actually make sandwiches, so this one I would have to improvise but it would most likely be a toasted chicken mayo. If I'm  ever to order a sandwich when I'm out that is usually my go to. 

3. Everyone loves popcorn (well I think they do) what is your topping/ sprinkle of choice?

• This is my staple diet when I binge watch a TV series on Netflix and my toppings are always the classic...butter and salt. I occasionally sprinkle a little Aromat on top too.

4. Dream cover shoot?

• This is a tough one as there are so many great magazines out there. It would be a toss up between Vogue, Sports Illustrated or Maxim.

5. If given a choice, full time model or full time executive, what would you choose?

• I don't know if either haha, both jobs are very intimidating. I love the idea of being in a sexy suit conducting a board meeting, strategixing, etc. but being in a bikini travelling to different tropical islands, rolling around in the sand sounds just as great. If I had to choose, it would be an executive.

6. Growing up you must have had someone you aspired to be, so who is your role model?

• i had many role models growing up as a child, being the eldest sibling I use to always look for people in society to aspire towatds. The older I got, my role models changed too. But thinking back now, the one that sticks our was Angelina Jolie. I love what a strong empowered woman she is, always being able to hold her own and how creating awareness is really admirable and selfless. I also use to be inspired by the charactters  she would play an always hoped I'd be able to be cast in similar roles for example: Girl Interupted.Although it is a cliche, definitely my mother

7. Anyone holding that hand yet? or is it available?

• Haha, I hate dating questions but usually I'm holding my own hand.

8. Obviously being a female you would love fashion. Favourite label/ designer?

• Balmain, Alexander McQueen and Burberry are my top fashion houses which are completely out of my budget, lol but I am definitely a sweapants and sneakers kind of gal... I'm really into adidas at the moment, I love how they are making a comeback.

Bucket Babe: Candice Boucher

Greetings, and welcome to the first edition of the Bucket Babe for 2016! Now for us living in South Africa, 2016 hasn't been the greatest so far with the on going racial debacles plaguing the country, the ever weakening Rand and the political shambles we find our Parliament in. Fortunately we do have a lot of positives as well, our country is one of the most scenic in the world with breathtaking landscapes and it's home to some of the most beautiful woman in the world, like our featured model today. She's no stranger to magazine covers and has made a name for herself on the global stage, like many of South Africa's fine wines, she just gets better with age and it is an honor and a privilege to feature her today.

Candice Boucher

Born and raised in Durban, Candice shot to fame in local magazines such as SA Sports Illustrated and FHM. She was quite a regular in the swimsuit edition as well as making an annual appearance in the FHM Top 100 sexiest woman list with good reasoning too. She was a firm favourite in the swimsuit edition of Sports Illustrated and I for one always used to look out for her in the TV segments on Supersport. 

 Her beauty holds no bounds, whether she's shooting lingerie, swimsuits, fashion or nothing at all. She still remains one of SA's sort out model and was also featured as a Guess model in many of their campaigns and one her biggest achievements has been being featured in Playboy Magazine, in a shoot done in Kenya along side animals in the wild.

Her talents don't lie only in her beauty as she also pursued roles in motion pictures, as she stared as the female lead in the Bollywood movie Azaan as well as featured in Bollywood superstar singer, Himesh Rashammiya's music video to Aap Kaa Surroor. She has a busy schedule, travelling the world and we wish her all the best and hope to see her featured more in the printed as well as on screen

Q&A

1. We know you used to own  a GTI, so we know you like fast cars (Durban influence showing) but if you could chose to have any car, what would it be?

• I still have my GTI, living on a smallholding makes it a little tricky though. I used to own an old 3 door Rav 4, I loved her, if I could have her back with a brand new engine I would be happy.

2. What sandwich are you most likely to make for me? and will it be toasted or plain?

• Aahh I used to make amazing sandwiches... it would be toasted with bacon, Camembert cheese, a little cranberry sauce and rocket. Toast that and then add some avo!

3. Everyone loves popcorn (well I think they do) what is your topping/ sprinkle of choice?

• Popcorn favourite...salt & vinegar

4. Being a Durban girk, what do you miss the most about your home town?

• I do miss the warm ocean and the incredible sunrises over the ocean.

5. You've graced the covers of many magazines, which one was the highlight for you?

• South African Sports Illustrated

6. Being an international model, you've shot in various scenic locations, which is your favourite?

• Kenya was my favourite! I had so many magical moments there.

7. One of your most popular features was with Playboy Magazine, what was it like shooting with Lions, baring in mind you were wearing little to nothing at all?

• That shoot contributed to my love of Kenya. There were wild lions, buffalo, giraffe, rhinos, elephants to name a few. At times I would be on the ground with just a car between myself and a lion (car pulled back for the shot) running up to a wild heard of buffalo. It was liberating and humbling to be amongst those incredible animals in the birthday suit. I had a wonderful team with me and amazing guide (John) who knew the animals very well. So I always felt safe. It was definitely the most insane, adrenaline fueled adventure of my life thus far.

8. Growing up, did you always dream of becoming a model or was it something that just happened?

• I didn't even know what modelling was growing up. It kind of happened by accident, I always wanted to work with animals or young kids... I have been fortunate enough thought to have worked with some amazing animals...thought not in the way I initially intended.

9. Anyone holding that hand yet? Or is it available?

• Nosy!! There is someone holding my heart...

10. What type of music gets your booty shaking?

• I am an 80's child s there is nothing that gets me in a good and festive mood quite like the oldies.. (I have to add that I am not really a refined booty shaker.. I have 2 left feet to say the least) Roxette, Talking Heads, White Snake, Dave Matthews Band, Alanis Morisette, Bruce Springsteen and good ol Bob Marley are some of my good time favourites.

11. Which city is your dream party destination?

• New York is quite a party city, but I have found that it doesn't really matter where you party, it's the people that are with you that make a party unforgettable or not. I have a small close group of friends and wherever we are or whatever we do, we have the best time together.

Bucket Babe: Anika Laubscher

It's almost the end of August and summer is getting ever so closer for us in South Africa, but its time to turn up the heat with this months bucket babe as we go off shore to find this local lass doing great things in Europe. Our featured model has lived in a number of countries on our beautiful continent and has now relocated to Europe to show them a thing or two, she's currently studying but has been in the modelling world for a while now and I can honestly say she is another one of our hot exports. She's been flying relatively low under the radar but we've managed to track her down on instagram and boy is it a must to follow! Her friendly nature is just one of the characteristics that adds to her charm and after reading what sandwich she would make for me, I almost went down on one knee. We'd like to wish her all the best for whatever life has in store for, hopefully it is big things and maybe one day we would get to share that sandwich. ;)

Bio

Growing up I lived in 3 different African countries, South Africa (where I was born), Tanzania and Namibia until I decied to take on Europe for good. I packed up my bags, kissed family and friends goodbye and now I live in the beautiful region of Marche, Italy...studying and collecting memories wherever life lets me go. (I'll go anywhere, why stay in one place? ;)

I love unplanned adventures, proving fortune cookies (and people) wrong and the company of eccentric people.

 I try not to break my head on the future so much anymore, the present is pretty awesome if you know how to live it.
