Interview with Vanessa Paradise

They wanted the girls up close. She sits for the camera, blonde hair catching the light, legs crossed like she knows exactly what you’re looking at. Vanessa answers each question with that small half-smile, voice soft but never shy. Every now and then she shifts, skirt riding just high enough to show more thigh, and the lens stays right there. Later she slips out of the dress on her own, nothing hurried, nothing hidden. Fingers trace down her stomach, then lower, moving in slow circles until her breathing changes. She keeps her eyes on the lens the whole time, a brunette strand falling across one cheek as she leans back and lets it happen.
