Phaedra Parks Signs Exclusive Modeling Contract With Wilhelmina Models, Says She Isn’t Afraid To “Bare It All”

Announced by USMagazine, Phaedra Parks can now ad model to her already extensive resume, along with lawyer and mortician.

After not returning to Real Housewives of Atlanta, Parks has spent her time preparing and venturing into other territories. After talking to US Magazine, Parks said she is a good candidate for modeling because she is the face of “yes you can.”

Stylish: Tell us, what  are your goals for modeling?

Parks: I think I’m the face of “yes you can.” I’m a small town girl who has followed her dreams. Yes you can be a mom, yes you can be a lawyer and yes you can be a model. When the opportunity presented itself some people asked me “Why?’ and I said “Why not?” A supermodel started this company and she wanted to give power back to the women and I think I stand for the same things. I have the opportunity to show people that beauty can come in every size, shade, color and age. It’s exciting and an adventure!

Stylish: Who are your biggest modelings inspirations?

Parks: Of course [Naomi] Campbell, she is everything, so fierce. Also Nicki Minaj. She’s done such a great job reinventing herself and changing the standards of beauty. And she’s been a big supporter of me.

Stylish: How do you feel about showing some skin and really taking it off for the camera?

Parks:  I don’t mind baring it all, I have been wearing g-strings and baring it all really every season for seven years. I had two children on national T.V.  I love nudity! I’ve brought a lot of exotic entertainers on the show, so I love my body and I’ve got curves. I’m a mother of two children, so I’m not perfect, but I have no problem getting naked.
