We tend to meet most of our cover girls at car shows, but every once in a while we happen to run into girls that we think are cover worthy, even if they've had no modeling experience whatsoever. These seem to be the good ones due to the fact that later on in life they might be able to make it big in the world and we can say, "Yeah, she was on the cover of Import Tuner." Our latest find was located through a friend of ours, Rich Lumba. He told us about a girl that works at a popular nightclub in L.A. and looks the part for a Tuner cover. Of course, to get a good look at her required one night of clubbing to benefit our Tuner readers.
In a normal situation, your first reaction upon entering a club is to look at the guy-to-girl ratio then analyze whether you're going to stay or not. This was probably the first time we would enter the club with intentions to check out the cocktail waitresses, or mainly one in particular. She wasn't hard to spot, and even though the club was dark we were still able to see how hot this Indonesian-Dutch girly is. After a quick introduction the deal was done; she was perfect for the cover. The fact that she is somewhat new to the industry and has had only a little modeling experience was only half the bargain, but what sealed the deal were her powerful green eyes. Meet Ms. Lisa Ferrouge.

2NR: So what's the deal being turned off by guys with no taste in shoes?
LF: I can't stand it when a guy has no taste in shoes. He could be really hot, but if he has Sketchers on that's the end of that story.
2NR: So I guess it's worse if he has crappy shoes and doesn't know how to dance?
LF: The guy would definitely have to know how to dance. I mean, even if he's really hot and I'm totally into him, he would still have to know how to dance for the circle to be complete.
2NR: I take it you're basing this off past experience?
LF: Yeah, every now and then I'll be into a guy and the second we hit the dance floor the guy doesn't know how to move. Most of the time I just end up walking off the dance floor. I'm sorry guys! You have to now how to move your body. When a guy gets his body to move with me on the dance floor, and not just all over me, then that's a big plus. I'm into underground hip-hop and I notice that breakers have good body movement. I like the way Usher moves. I just saw his video and it turns me on the way he moves with the music. You know they have hip-hop aerobic classes in L.A.?
2NR: I've never heard of that, but I should take it if it makes women horny. Tell me about your turn-on to guys with full lips.
LF: I didn't start dating Asian guys until after high school. I went out with a lot of Caucasian guys, but now I find that Asian men meet my "full lips" requirement. A lot of Asian guys have full lips so when you kiss them you know you're being kissed. That's the only way I can describe full lips. I didn't just make this sudden change to Asians purely because of it, but now I prefer Asian men. (Laughs) I'm currently seeking an Asian guy!
2NR: So I guess there is no boyfriend right now?
LF: No, but there is someone that I'm interested in right now. Whether he feels the same way we'll just have to wait and find out.
2NR: Sounds like he's pretty dumb if he hasn't gotten the picture yet. Since you work at a nightclub you probably get guys picking up on you all the time right?
LF: A day has not gone by at work without a guy trying to pick up on me.
2NR: What are the most frequently asked questions?
LF: The most asked question is "What [ethnicity] are you?" Then they tend to just say "Wow" and it ends at that. The second most asked question is "What perfume are you wearing?" I usually don't tell them, 'cause I don't want anybody else wearing it. Most guys don't try very hard to talk after they ask the first question. They just want to know what I am and leave it at that, but most of the time I'll hear them talk about me when I walk away or take an order at the table next to them. Sometimes when they are really drunk they'll ask for my number as their next question.
2NR: What an icebreaker. Do you ever get offered drinks?
LF: Yeah, I get offered them and sometimes I'll take them, but my rule is only three shots in one night if I'm working. Maybe I would take a few more, but most of the time I'm working on an empty stomach. You've got to remember I normally work for eight hours straight and most people that offer me drinks don't come in until the end of the night.
2NR: So do you usually take the drink that's offered to you?
LF: No, usually I'm the one that's taking the order so if they offer me a drink I get what's called a German Chocolate Cake for myself. It's made of equal parts Absolut Angelico and Citron, and you take it with sugar and a lemon. Plus, I'll take the drink only if I'm the one that takes the order. You don't know if anyone is going to slip something in your drink these days, so as long as the drink remains in my sight I'll drink it.
2NR: Have you ever had a stalker that shows up almost every night?
LF: No, I haven't had any really bad cases. Most of the regulars are actually really cool and not the stalker type. I feel that I don't give off the wrong vibes that would make somebody would want to stalk me or grab my ass or anything like that.
2NR: So have you ever gone home with anybody you met while working?
LF: Oh, no way! No one-night stands after work. I usually just get something to eat and then go home.
2NR: You said no one-night stands after work. What about when you're not at work?
LF: It's really hard for me to find somebody I'm into to begin with, so I've never found one guy that I've wanted to have sex with when I first meet him. I'm really picky about my guys. If I did end up being with him, I would really have to look at him for a long time.
2NR: You did your first car show this year. What do you think of the import world?
LF: I thought it was really crazy how people gather around and try to take pictures of you. I got really tired of standing for so long. The company I worked for, Endless, made me wear this really small skirt and top so I don't think I would have wanted to sit down. (Laughs)
