Bucket Babe: Ty Mathias

While the country is still recovering from the shock of last nights circus at the Presidents State of The Nation address, let us be grateful for other things concerning our beautiful country. For instance, this weeks featured model, born in Durban, raised in Johannesburg but later on moved to France but now she's back and back with a bang! This beautiful lass can now be seen around the streets of Cape Town, her blonde locks, striking features and legs that seem to go on for days are an instant attraction. She and I even share the same likes of cheese and popcorn toppings but less from me and more from her, here is...

Born in Durban, lived in Johannesburg till I was 9 then moved to South of France where I grew up. I moved to Cape Town in October and absolutely loving it!!! I started modeling in 2010 when I was a finalist in a swimsuit model search but then I moved to Mauritius and stopped working until now. I also have a cashmere company called Gia Bardot that I run with my amazing mother :)

Q&A

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

• I am a shocking human and still don't have my drivers license... So I am going to have to say any ride with a driver! (Just got my learners so beware drivers of Cape Town )

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

• Toasted. Always go for the crunch. And cheese, lots of cheddar cheese. Maybe some finely sliced tomato. I like it simple.

• Butter, butter and more butter!

4. Dream cover shoot?

• W Magazine or Sports Illustrated.

5. What type of music gets your booty shaking?

• Rock, hip-hop, house, pop... To be fair it really doesn't take much to get my booty shaking.

6. If given a choice, full time model or full time singer, what would you choose?

• Full time executive model.

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

• Got a tiny 2 year old hand to hold :)

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

• Princess She-Ra, the most powerful woman in the world.

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

• Zadig and Voltaire because their clothes are kick ass and I love wearing their men's collection too.

10. Which city is your dream party destination?

• That is a tough one but if its a city city, I'll go with New York!

Although todays featured model was born in the UK, her heart is firmly set in SA and she's been up to some amazing things. We first took notice of Christna when were asked to makee a selection for our top models in the SA Swimsuit competition last year, later on we found out that her talent for looking drop dead gorgeous in front of the camera wasn't her only one as she is an avid Singer. She performs in most of Joburgs trendiest night clubs as she performs covers for the latest house and dance anthems. So be on the lookout for her name the next time you want to go out on the night to party in Jozi.

Q&A

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

• Well, when I was younger I stole my brothers poster of a yellow Lamborghini Diablo and stuck it on my bedroom door.

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

• After being slightly offended by your request, I'd take my shoes off to enter the kitchen and make you a toasted cheese ;)

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

• Salt! Plain old salt.

4. understand that you're also quite a good singer, which genre in particular do you sing?

• I perform regularly in the Jozi night clubs, Taboo, The VIP Room, Kong, to name a few. So I perform all the dance/ house songs.

5. What type of music gets your booty shaking?

• I go mental for anything old school. Old school UK Garage like Artful Dodger, old school house. Albums like Head Kandi or Ministry of Sound Anthems. Doesn't get better than that.

6. If given a choice, full time model or full time singer, what would you choose?

• I would take singer as modelling would come with it. Best of both.

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

• I am in a relationship and sometimes he even holds both hands.

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

• Nowadays we grow up with information overload, stories of people who have come out on top despite all the odds, do-gooders, etc. I tend to hear different stories from different people and take what I can from each person, so I wouldn't say one person in particular.

9. As South Africans, we love our sports, whats your favourite one to watch?

• I do like rugby, but I was born in the UK and have three brothers, soccer is a biggy..

10. Which city is your dream party destination?

• If anyone doesn't answer with "Ibiza" there's something wrong with them.
