Hennywiz: Has being in the modeling industry affected your personal life?
Da’livia: Yes, it has affected my relationships mainly because of the traveling, no spending time with them and so called not giving them attention. In addition, they were insecure and controlling and didn’t like the whole world seeing my body etc.
Hennywiz: Overall, what has been your opinion of the modeling industry?
Da’livia: Wow!!! There’s a lot I can say but I’ll just say one thing to sum it up, there are a lot of women that have the body for this industry but not the face, attitude, personality and drive for it. Most lay around, be lazy and let their manager do all the work; not me I work hard for what I do best!!!
