Lovely Na'Tasha Salimi, whose Zodiac sign is Aries, was born in Germany with Persian background. "I lived there until about elementary school and moved to northern Virginia/Washington D.C area with my family at the age of 10," the Persian Godess tells The Black Star News. "My family always taught me to set high goals for myself and how to achieve them."
Na'Tasha graduated Westfield High School in the DMV in 2006 and moved to New York City to continue her modeling career. "I also attend college in Manhattan to become an entertainment lawyer," she continues. "I've been modeling here and there since the age of 16, but I'm finally now giving it everything I have and taking advantage of the city that I am in."
Where She's At: Na'Tasha has high goals. "Urban models have become very popular and are easier to relate to with the average woman," Na'Tasha adds. "Not all models weigh 100 pounds. Urban models represent curves and natural bodies that most women have. My message is that you don't have to starve yourself to be beautiful, or to get more jobs in the modeling field. Hips are sexy!"
"I'm only 22 and out here in New York by myself. It gets hard sometimes because I do get homesick," Na'Tasha says, when asked how she handles some of the industry's challenges. "But at the end of the day, this is what I want, so I'm going to stick through with it."
She also boasts of recent achievements: "Educational wise, getting an A on my Psychology final. Modeling wise from the magazines to the notorious movie ..its good to see that mainstream is also starting to appreciate curves..i love what I do and I've been blessed to be able to do what I do...
"Looks are just on the outside; your brain is what makes you," Na'Tasha warns other aspiring young models. "People stereotype and say pretty women are stupid anyway, so I believe that women need to step up and prove that wrong. Like 'yes I am beautiful and smart! I can model and go to school! I have other goals other than just posing.'"People always assume urban models are ''gold-diggers'' and so on...I know my beauty isn't forever promised therefore I wanna make sure I get this law degree and work as that in the future..I dont want to depend on anyone other than myself...thats all u got in the end is yourself...
So how does this beautiful young model prepare to step out? "I looove make up and having my hair done.. I also make it my priority to faithfully work out and keep in shape..it just makes u feel good all over...
