Victoria Elise

RUKUS magazine, December 2013, Print

Victoria Elise was born on a military base in Wurzburg, Bavaria, Germany, but raised in El Paso, Texas. With a mix of African-American, Cherokee-Indian and French you know this girl stands out in a crowd. Growing up Victoria never thought of herself as the model type, but after meeting a model from Los Angeles, California, she found herself wanting to try her hand at it, the rest is as they say… is history. Since that fateful meeting she has been a ring-card girl, music video girl, trade-show model and glamour model. Currently, you can find Victoria behind the bar at one the hottest nightclubs in Las Vegas, inside Mandalay Bay. Her ultimate goal after her modeling career is done, is to become a Microbiologist. With her look and personality, we’re not sure she’ll need to pursue anything else in life.

1. What’s your Ethnicity?

My father is African American and Cherokee-Indian and my mother is French.

2. What’s your zodiac sign?

Capricorn, we’re all work and no play.

3. Where are you from originally?

My parents were in the military, I was born in Wurzburg, Bavaria, Germany but raised in El Paso, Texas. Now I live in fabulous Las Vegas.

4. What did you like most about growing up in El Paso, TX?

It was a very safe and quiet city, I never had to worry about shenanigans growing up.

5. What kind of mischief did you get into growing up?

I liked being outside. I would always go out in the desert to catch lizards. I also enjoyed going into houses while they were still being built to explore and occasionally take some fancy tile. I never did anything with the tile, I just felt the need to take it. [laugh]

6. What’s the craziest thing you’ve ever done?

I’m not one for excitement, but I did have a cardiac ablation procedure though and I had to be awake for it. They had a scope in my heart so I was watching the monitors literally looking at my heartbeating.

7. What’s your favorite hobby and why?

I love to play video games. No I’m not talking about Xbox where everyone thinks I’m a 12 year old when I talk live. I’ve played World of Warcraft for 5 years, those were the dark ages, we won’t talk about that. As of lately though, I’ve been keeping it pretty chill and play Pokemon White Version 2 on the DS Lite.

8. What’s your guilty pleasure?

Sleep. I love to sleep all day. I’ll cuddle with my dog and sleep whenever I can. I’m always tired and I have a wonderful memory foam mattress that is practically an orgasm for my back.

9. Who do you admire?

I admire two people actually; my mom and dad. They both came from literally nothing, dirt-poor and were told only rich white men go to college. They worked hard for what they have today and taught me to do the same. I can say they’re living better than a lot of people nowadays and there aren’t too many people who can say that their parents are still together. They are my motivation and because of them, I know anything is possible if you put your heart and mind to it.

10. If you could change one thing in the world what would it be and why?

If there was an infinite supply of food for the entire world, I know it’s cliché but there’s a catch, no one would ever get fat either, so everyone wins. [smile]

11. What’s one of your personal goals?

I have many goals. I like to set weekly, monthly and yearly goals for myself, but I would have to say the most important one is that I want to make an impact on the world. The purpose of moving to Las Vegas was to milk as much money as I can from bartending then set off and move forward with a career in Microbiology.

12. What do guys compliment you on the most?

My teeth. I’m told that I have a beautiful “Colgate” smile. Ironically, I used to be called “beaver” back in Elementary school.

13. What’s your favorite body part on yourself?

My booty, it’s huge. Obviously, I got it from my dad’s side of the family. I say my back side is my black side. [laugh] Sometimes it’s hard to find jeans that fit me properly though.

14. What do you look for in a guy?

Goals. A man has to have goals, if he doesn’t and he is just wasting his life away then I’m not interested.

15. What’s the first thing you notice about a guy?

How he carries himself. If he has confidence and intellect, he has my attention. I’ve never been one for meatheads.

16. What’s your ideal first date?

I’m a simple girl who loves to eat. I’m happy with a home-cooked meal or even a hole-in-the-wall, candle lit, sushi joint.

17. What turns you on?

When a man doesn’t try too hard, just be yourself, you should want a girl who likes you for you.

18. What turns you off?

Being arrogant and cocky. Everyone knows that one guy who thinks he’s all that and a bag of chips with a Pepsi on the side…chill out bro.

19. What’s your biggest pet peeve?

Getting hit on at work. I’m working! Yes, I’m nice to you, I’ll smile and make your beverage how you want, but there are literally 100’s of beautiful women waiting out there in the club for you. Never hit on a bartender, there’s just no chance.

20. Who’s your celebrity pass?

I’d have to say Jude Law, oh man, I’m a sucker for British accents!
