The interview provided an
opportunity for beauty and intelligent Law Undergraduate, to open up on her
experiences so far as a beauty Queen, and how she has been using her crown to
reach out to the poor, the needy and the downtrodden as one of her pet projects.
·
For the
sake of this interview…could you please introduce yourself to me?
My name is Nicole Browne Mbonu. A
native of Imo state, Okigwe LG to be precise; I am also a student at the
National Open University of Nigeria studying law
·
How was
growing up…as in your childhood experience?
As a child I had so much care
from my parents and siblings. I learnt a lot from them especially my mum.
·
How did
you emerge “Face of Peace Global? And how does it feel to be crowned winner?
It is a non bikini pageant. The objectives
of the pageant drew my attention. The Queen was to be a voice for the less privileged
in the society. I felt there was a need for change and I decided to contest.
I was very happy and always
like to use the word ‘fulfilled’, because it was just the right platform for me
to reach out to my people and the world at large.
·
Was Face
of Peace Global Beauty contest your first experience of participating in a
beauty contest, and what qualities helped you to win?
Yes, it was! I think they
majorly looked at brains, personality, composure, decency, and beauty was the
least, which I had strong points in.
·
What pet
project are you embarking on?
In 2014 I started a pet project
on working with women and children affected by crisis. In collaboration with an
NGO: ‘Displaced Women & Children Foundation’. We trained 644 women in
different skills like soap making, hairdressing, catering, computer, tailoring and
knitting. We also intervened in the education pursuit of over 1600 children.
·
(Cuts in)…
looking at your tight schedule as a model, how do you juggle pageantry with
your studies?
Modeling world in general is a
very tasking profession. I think determination is the key word. With all the
work I do, I also make sure I find time for my books.
·
Do you share
the majority perception that a beauty pageant must sleep her way to get a
crown?
That’s so shallow. Why would you
sleep your way to winning? Pageantry is one of the strongest means to show how
intelligent and talented you are; so when you sleep with a man it means you
feel you don’t have enough potential to do it. If there are girls out there
that still indulge in that; then there is serious problem somewhere.
·
What
qualities do you desire in a Man? And what’s your definition of a best
relationship?
He must be God fearing,
hardworking and consistent. A perfect relationship to me, means two best
friends who love and understand each other
·
Do you
believe in the ongoing Baby Mama syndrome? Can you be a baby mama to any male
celebrity?
Nope! I don’t…I believe that kids
are to come in marriage. I feel that it’s more decent to have kids with your
husband not your boyfriend.
·
Finally,
advice to upcoming models
Every big model started from
somewhere. So, just believe in yourself and go for it. Do not be fooled by
empty promises. You are beautiful, so use that beauty wisely.

Thanks for
granting us this interview. Trendy Gist Blog remains grateful to you.
Thank you too
This is the type of ladies that can do everything for the crown and for men.
ReplyDeleteBaby Mamas may not like this...but she said the truth. It’s more decent to have Kids with your Husband, not your Boyfriend. Nicole Browne nailed it
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't be suprised if Baby Mamas should come here and abuse this decent lady. i support her view
ReplyDeleteNice interview...i lyk d way she suicccintly dissed dose bit*hes that caled demselves Baby whateva. boyfrd is nt husbnd
ReplyDeleteWell said Ms.Nicole, raising family out of wedlock is unreasonable. If a woman is good enough to get laid by a man and bear a child for him, he should also consider her decent enough to be his wedded wife. Enough of this baby mama drama, ladies and gentlemen, if you're not ready to settle down and raise a family, stop bringing children into this wicked world out of wedlock. Thanks Ms Nicole .
