Up Close & Personal: Hannah

Out of our whole lineup of Import Tuner models, we always seem to feature city girls. Think about it, you don't go to import car shows in small towns for two reasons: Most of the money is in the major cities, and, most, importantly, you don't normally find modified imports in the countryside. A John Deere tractor show is more that type of style. Our cover girls have come from all over the Pacific Rim, but they have always lived minutes from a major city. Santa Rosa, Calif., is nowhere near the beach and is well known for its farming and wineries. The first things I picture when I hear this are cowboy hats, boots, big shiny belt buckles and '55 Chevy pickups with gun racks mounted in the rear window. However, if there is one hidden treasure that we were able to uncover on the back roads of Santa Rosa, it's this month's cover model Hannah.

It turns out that Hannah digs the import scene and travels two hours down to San Mateo just to attend Hot Import Nights. Once our photo shoot was scheduled, I made dinner reservations--to make her feel at home we got our grub on at Black Angus (that's my version of stereotypical country food). With her picture seared into my brain, I was hoping she would be easy to spot. Unfortunately, I let my imagination get the best of me and I took that picture in my mind, added a knockout body complete with Daisy Dukes' cowboy boots and hat, and a flannel shirt knotted up front.

No doubt you could see the disappointment in my face when she walked in wearing regular street clothes. As she drew closer my Daisy Duke disappointment was forgiven once I saw how hot Ms. Hannah was face to face. She was definitely smoking hot with a face that can melt a man, a waist so thin a rubberband couldn't even squeeze it, and most importantly looks for days. With a body this curvy I thought my credit card was going to be relieved of expensing a full course meal, but little did I know this chick can chow down. Meet country-girl Hannah--no last name, just Hannah. Please excuse my country stereotypes throughout this interview.

2NR: How can a girl your size eat so damn much!?

HH: I have a really fast metabolism. My stomach is like a bottomless pit. I really enjoy eating and trying different types of food. My favorite is Japanese food, but I also like Vietnamese, Indian, Chinese and Italian. My friends gross out cause I'll try anything like tripe, tendon and all the gross-looking stuff.

2NR: You listed ping-pong as a sport? Is it?

HH: I think so, ping-pong is fun. I think that shows the Chinese in me. I also like playing Foosball. Is that a sport?

2NR: In your case, we can make it a sport. Are ping-pong and Foosball the town sports in Santa Rosa?

HH: (Laughs) No! That's just something I like to do. Why, it's not an L.A. thing? (Laughs again)

2NR: So what did you think of HIN in San Diego?

HH: It was fun, I really like the import scene. It treats me very well and the people in the industry are really cool. I've modeled for clothing companies and a variety of other industries but I really enjoy the import scene.

2NR: I'm sure the scene is glad you're liking it. So time for the boyfriend question? (Fingers crossed)

HH: I knew that was coming! Sorry to disappoint you, but I don't really like to talk about my love life. If I am involved with someone right now,it wouldn't be fair to them for me to exploit the relationship.

2NR: Hearing that, I will leave the answer at "it's an on-and-off situation" just so our readers and I can feel like we have a chance at getting in your pants.

HH: (Laughs) Whatever works!

2NR: Have you ever done the dirty in a car?

HH: Oh my god! Umm...yeah. In an old Chevelle. Oh man, my parents are going to read this! Sorry Mom!

2NR: Holy cow, you are from the country if it was in a Chevelle! I'm surprised you didn't say a horse and buggy! What's it like growing up in an area like that?

HH: Yes, people wear cowboy hats, boots, big belt buckles and all. Guys and girls wear Wrangler jeans, and there are a lot of rednecks. At our high school dances people wore the whole square dance get up and we listened to country music. As much as I make fun of it, I really appreciate growing up there. I think what really sucked was that my friends and I were like the girls in the movie "Clueless" wearing our platforms and all, but I swear we couldn't walk around without stepping in chew. Awe man, there was chew everywhere!

2NR: Oh nasty! So instead of bike racks did they have places to tie up horses?

HH: (Laughs) No, there were no horses! We did do a lot of off-roading in trucks and ATVs, though.

2NR: I picture people saying (country voice) "Y'all wanna come over to my house and go four-wheelin'? YEEEEEE HAAAA!!"

HH: (Laughs) Yeah, but it's not as dramatic as you make it sound! The funny thing is we didn't even have one stoplight in our town.

2NR: Man, that would be culture shock for me. So what did you think of The City?

HH: Well, since I'm half Chinese, I have relatives that live near Chinatown in San Francisco, so I got to taste city life almost every weekend. It was a great escape for me. Most people where I grew up would end up marrying their high school sweethearts and settling down without stepping out of town, but I was like, gosh there's so much culture and diversity outside of town.

2NR: So there is some Chinese in you that didn't get washed out.

HH: My mom is traditional Chinese, she grew up in Hong Kong. When we went to the city we were hanging out in Chinatown, so it's not like I was raised on hamburgers and hotdogs. I still have the ethnic in me. I love the city, but it's nice to know you can always go back to the peacefulness that Sonoma County has to offer. (Laughs) I can go home and park my car in the driveway without worrying about putting quarters in the parking meters. My cousins would come up and they would be saying, "This is like camping." And I'd tell them, "This is my everyday life! When I go camping it's hardcore camping!"

2NR: Yeah, my family gets an RV and calls it camping.

HH: Oh no, I'm talking no running water, no electricity, the works.

2NR: The outdoorsy type. So how was your first sexual experience living in a small town? What I honestly picture is the typical in-a-barn, on-the-hay scenario. Sorry for such a personal question, I would think there is nothing else to do in a small town except fuck.

HH: Oh, you're serious! I really wish I had waited a little longer because the situation was kinda weird. Oh man, my mom is going to read this! From elementary school all the way up to high school there was this girl that I hated and she hated me. It was mainly because we dated the same people but at different times, so there was almost like a feud going on between us. So...ummm, I did it with my worst enemy's boyfriend. (Laughs) I know, I know, that's bad and I can't believe I sacrificed my virginity to piss her off. She deserved it though, 'cause she used to talk a lot of smack about me. You gotta remember, back then I was young and dumb....

2NR: And full of...kidding.

HH: Hey, but you have to learn by experience and I could honestly say this was an experience and I'm not like that now. Oh yeah, there might be a Chevelle in that picture, too (Laughs)! It really bothered me that people say that we look alike. It might not sound like it but I am a humble country-girl type.

2NR: Whatever! What's your preference, top or bottom?

HH: It's all-good. I'm down for anything. It really depends on my mood.

2NR: Even though you're 22 years old, you seem to be very mature for your age. Are you big into the clubbing seen now that you're old enough to party?

HH: I started clubbing at a young age, so I think now I've grown out of it. When I was younger it was always a thing of who am I going to meet, who's going to be there and what am I going to wear. Now I occasionally go with just my girlfriends; we don't care how we look because we just go to hang out with each other. We are one big group of eye candy (Laughs). Personally, I think it's fun, but now I wouldn't ever want to date somebody I met at a club. Not that there's not quality people at clubs, but it's just the atmosphere; between the drinking and the loud music you're really not going to get to know someone. I'm not a big drinker to begin with and I can't stand talking to people that are belligerent drunk.

2NR: Good for you. OK, last question, real or fake?

HH: Real! The weird thing is we don't know where they came from cause no one in my family is really big so the joke is, "You must have gotten everyone's fair share." Sometimes when I come down to L.A. for photo shoots the photographer usually always asks, "You're natural? You're not from around here, huh? We haven't shot very many natural girls." They are always saying they don't look right and I'm like, these are natural so what they are supposed to look like? Geez, they're not supposed to look fake! (Pointing at her boobs) Can't you tell that they hang natural? I call them teardrops.

2NR: I call them banana boobies when the nipples are on the very top. I would have guessed natural, though.

HH: (Laughing) Banana boobies! That's a good one! Well, I did nothing to deserve them, but I certainly enjoy them.

2NR: Well, so do we! I can also tell it's a little cold in here too. Now that you've spilled your guts, out are there any last words you want to get out?

HH: Can I do a shout out?

2NR: Shoot!

HH: OK, Stacy Lee, Nick the Bandit (my bodyguard), the Kernel "Pip Perry Pembo," and my family for raising me right. My interview might sound wild and crazy, but that was when I was younger and it helped me mature more quickly into a much better person today. So, I would just like to state I'm not like that anymore.
