Instead of the normal explanation of how we found the December Tuner model, let us explain how hard it has been to schedule her. Most of the time there's usually a problem setting a shoot date that's good for the model, cover car, studio and, most importantly, our schedules, but this time nothing lined up. Jason Mulroney was on vacation, the cover car was completely dissembled, but the studio was already set. This means we had a week for the owner of the car to get it running, for Jason to hurry back from vacation and for me to do the model interview. We ended up meeting up with this month's model, Ms. Rachel Sterling, at one of her calendar shoots. Making the trip up to Wilshire Boulevard, I went in wide eyed and expecting a bikini shoot; then I realized this was a lingerie calendar shoot to raise awareness and money for breast cancer, and that's when my eyeballs popped out. Needless to say, the interview was pretty interesting and I can honestly say that lingerie doesn't cover much. Throughout the interview I think Ms. Sterling caught me looking at her 32Ds several times, but can you blame me? By this time I felt a little uncomfortable-for once. In any case, I was able to ask the normal real or fake and boyfriend questions, so on with the show.
2NR: How did you land in the movie Tomcats?
RS: I auditioned for it and got the part. I just moved up to L.A. and I auditioned for the part, but I didn't have a SAG (Screen Actors Guild) card, which is something that's very important to have when you are in movies. I didn't have one, but I ended up getting the part and getting a SAG card at the same time. So far, L.A. has been very good to me.
2NR: You're now also the official spokesmodel for Jeremy Wray's Hook-Ups skateboard company now right?
RS: Yes, I was in an independent film called Destroying American that's gone skate cult classic, and I played a character called Nurse Betty. Tony Hawk, Jeremy Wray and a whole bunch of other pro skaters are in it. After that movie I ended up as Hook-Ups spokesmodel. Now they have a line of skateboards with me playing different characters drawn as cartoons.
2NR: So, can you tell us a little bit about your part in the upcoming movie with Vin Diesel?
RS: Yeah, a little bit. It's called El Diablo and it's directed by Gary Grey, who also directed The Negotiator and TLC's Waterfalls video. My part is in the opening scenes with a dance routine, but I'm a terrible dancer! When I auditioned I really sucked and they ended up calling my agent saying, "She's great for the part but she can't dance." Well, after a whole bunch of dance classes I ended up getting the part. I had to take tango lessons to top it all off. The movie might be out by the time this magazine comes out.
2NR: You're also a Juggy on The Man Show. How's that gig?
RS: The Man Show, huh...we are one big happy dysfunctional family. We all hang out after work and we even have our own little Juggy parties. Thank god we all have good genetics and we're all retarded, 'cause that's why we all get along so well. We all just recently went to the Bahamas, but the coolest thing was that we had our own little island. Let me tell you something, when we were on this island there were no phones, no nothing, and you have nine girls bored out of their minds in blazing hot weather with a bar...all I have to say is we should have been taping! This could have been a show that would blow The Osbournes and Anna Nicole out of the water.
2NR: Sounds more like Temptation Island.
RS: No, it would have been more of a Mental Ward Island.
2NR: Are you one of the girls that jump on the trampolines?
RS: Yes I am, but unfortunately I'm the only one that hates jumping on it. All the girls like jumping on it but me. You know, they even brought the trampoline to the Bahamas, but it rained the day we were taping so we didn't have to jump on it. I was so happy about that, but then they ended up making us jump on a bed instead.
2NR: What else is required to be a Juggy?
RS: Well, the show is taped in front of a live audience, so what you don't see in between commercials are the parts where we have to keep the audience entertained. We usually do improvs and little skits. In between commercials there's also a lot of beer drinking going on. It's a lot harder to be a Juggy than you would think. I remember we had to do this one opening skit where we were FBI agents and we had to rappel down this rope to the stage. It was about 15 to 20 feet up, and me being the perfectionist I wanted to try it a couple of times so it would look right. By the time we were doing the real take my arms were just beat to the point that when we got to the ground I couldn't even hold up my gun.
2NR: Man, they should have a Juggy school just to see if some of the girls are qualified. So there is a lot of beer drinking going on in the audience, but what about the crew?
RS: Yeah, the crew tends to get pretty wasted too. I'm not much of a beer drinker, but I'll drink it during taping. Oh yeah, the other thing is that we tape three shows in one day, so if you're planning on going I would definitely say the third show is the best show to go to. Mostly because by then the whole audience is wasted. The first show is just normal and the second show is a little tiring, but by the third everyone is just slap-happy.
2NR: With such a busy schedule is there any time in your life for a boyfriend?
RS: Boyfriend? What's that? You know, I don't think I know of a guy that can hang with my schedule. I work constantly, so when I find someone he has to be able to put up with it. I am a hard person to date because when I want attention from a guy I really want attention. (Laughs) I'm so available! Man, it has been so long I don't even know what sex is anymore.
2NR: Speaking of sex, top or bottom?
RS: At this point I'll take it any way I can get it! I would have to say top so the guy can't run away!
2NR: I don't think there would be much of a problem of anyone running away, and if there was there must be a problem with the guy. Here's another one, real or fake?
RS: (Laughing) I had an ex boyfriend once say, "If you can touch them then they must be real!"
2NR: Well, they sure look fun to play with!
RS: Why, thank you for the compliment!
2NR: You're into tattoos, so do you have any?
RS: Yes, I have one. Let's just say it's on my lower hip.
RS: (Laughing) How about this the first person to guess what it is will get an autographed picture? You have to respond on my website though.
2NR: OK, we could do that, but you will tell me what it is when the interview is over, right?
2NR: The interview is over.
