Laura - Niles For Miles

SoCal native Laura Niles was born and raised in the 'Wood (IngleWOOOD!). After graduating from USC with a degree in international relations and a minor in Chinese she moved overseas and called Asia her home for the next few years. She modeled in Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Thailand and Korea. When she returned to the States, she settled in Los Angeles' Chinatown to show her apparent love for Asian culture. She loves authentic Chinese food; she's a second-degree black belt and speaks Mandarin Chinese. We spent an hour with the soft-spoken Import Tuner cover girl and found out this is one hot double serving of kung pao kung fu.

2NR: What makes you feel sexy?LN: I like the way my hair is done and the way the clothes are styled when I go on photo shoots. I get to feel like a princess.

2NR: What do you do for a crazy evening?LN: I put the right outfit on and go out for cocktails. I like different kinds of cocktails. My favorite used to be Nuts and Berries but now it's a Surfer on Acid-I think it's Jagermeister, Malibu rum and pineapple juice. The name is also how you feel after you've drank them!

2NR: Have any late night must-haves?LN: Hagen-Dazs Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream.

2NR: What's the best time and place to shop?LN: The best time to shop is every day! I have a secret spot to get my Marc Jacobs purses and shoes-and my electronic gadgets. I have a lot of secret spots.

2NR: When was the last time you did something naughty?LN: I try to do something naughty every day! Let's see what my vices are ... I slowed down on alcohol. Boys are a vice.

2NR: What's your best feature and what feature to find attractive on men?LN: On me I like my stomach. As for men, I like nice hands and chests. Nice-looking hands that would be proportional to man who is 5 feet 10 inches tall.

2NR: How would you like your dream guy to approach you?LN: Maybe he'd come up and kiss me? I'd be so surprised I wouldn't know what to do. I'd just smile.

2NR: Finish this line: The one thing I would not do again ...LN: I have no regrets.
