You have a bunch of sexy tats. What part of a
woman's body do your think tattoos look best? I am a huge fan of tattoos on women in the right places
of course. I love the lower abdominal area, anklet tattoos rock and the back of
the neck I think is sexy. Full sleeves look good on the right girl and can be
very hot!
What do you consider your greatest achievement
to date? Good one, you are asking
my greatest achievement to date. Honestly, I have to say the love and support
from people all over the globe. I am truly humbled.

Model My Cover Spotlight: Travis Lee Ferguson
Not Another Damn Blog spotlight model for September 8th was Travis Lee Ferguson. He will be on the cover of my December release, Misguided.
Meanwhile, show NADM some love. https://www.facebook.com/NotADamnBlog
Later, you can find Travis' social media links.
Getting to know Travis
Are you recognized on the street?
Actually
not very often outside of the Midwest. Once in a while out on the west coast
someone will recognize me or my work. With my personality, I am completely ok
with not being recognized everywhere I go. I know that one day that kind of
notoriety may come, and I have very clear boundaries on what is public and what
I would like to keep private. Either way I am extremely thankful and humbled
every time someone recognizes and appreciates my work.
Do you have any hidden talents?
Hidden
talents... Hmm. I wish I could sing but that is definitely not the case. I do
love to draw but I have kinda gotten away from it over the past couple years.
Other than that, I can also hold my own on a skateboard. Not a lot of people
know that, and it's kinda weird to see a 6'5 person on a skateboard but I got
skills... By skills I mean I can ride without falling off and do a couple basic
tricks ;)
What advice do you have for others aspiring to get into
modeling and entertainment?
The most
important advice I could give is to learn about the industry from a business
perspective. Know which lane(s) you fit in or are trying to pursue and then
hustle relentlessly. There are beautiful people everywhere. It takes a lot of
hard work and thick skin.
What crazy activity do you dream of doing?
I am
pretty rated PG when it comes to extreme activities. Never been sky diving,
deep sea diving etc. I would actually love to go on a safari in Africa. (As
long as there is someone right next to me with a huge gun in case a lion gets a
bright idea.)
What activities do you enjoy doing
outside?
I'm from Iowa, so I'm a country boy at heart. With
that said, I love being outside. Camping and fishing are my favorite things to
do. I also love spending time with my family and playing sports with my son.
Exercise is a big part of my life and becomes therapeutic for me so I love to
stay active as much as possible. Travis Lee Ferguson Bio
Growing up with dreams of becoming an elite athlete, he began to
live a life revolving around fitness and health at a very young age.
Travis also developed a passion and dream of becoming an actor, but due to a
lack of opportunities in Iowa, he focused on athletics. Excelling in
football, basketball, and track, Travis has essentially spent his whole life
turning his body into a machine. This hard work paid off after his
sophomore year of high school when receiving a full ride scholarship from Iowa
State University to play football. While there, as a student athlete, he
managed to get his degree in sociology, graduating in 2009.
While still in college, Travis was blessed with an opportunity to
follow his dreams of becoming a model/ actor, when approached by a local
modeling agency. Travis began building his portfolio by booking photo
shoots with local photographers and learning to perfect his craft as a new
model. Still focusing on school and football at the time, his
availability was very limited.
Also, while in college, Travis welcomed the most influential part of
his life, a baby boy. As a new father, Travis had a sense of urgency to
fulfill his dreams and set an example to his son on how to follow his goals
relentlessly. The birth of his son taught Travis the importance of
managing his priorities and staying grounded to what he believes in, which has
propelled his career to new heights in this fast moving industry.
Immediately after his graduation from Iowa State, he was able to
kick his career into full throttle, by booking shoots throughout the entire
country, working with over 100 photographers, designers, and producers.
Travis has also had the opportunity to begin growing his acting career by
taking acting classes, and being casted in numerous commercials, including a
lead role in an advertisement for Veridian Credit Union in 2012. Travis
has also expanded even further into radio voice overs, and motivational
speaking, to create even more diversity in his portfolio. While
print and runway modeling consume the majority of his experience, Travis is
slowly breaking ground into the acting industry, and steadily looking for other
opportunities.
Travis’ experience has caught the attention of a very loyal fan base
that has supported and followed his career extremely closely. Travis says
that his fans are the reason that he does what he does, and loves to get to
know and interact with the people that have gotten him so far in this
business. Travis is constantly finding new ways to show his appreciation
to his supporters through social media, appearances, and other events.
In addition to molding himself into a nationally known entertainer,
Travis has begun using his teaching skills to help new and aspiring models
follow their dream. Travis has worked with numerous aspiring models to
learn the business side of the industry, and start or add to their portfolio
with amazing images.
Travis Lee Ferguson is becoming more and more a hot commodity in the
fashion/ modeling world. Each day, he is making progress toward
maximizing his full potential, gaining experience in print modeling, runway,
editorial, event hosting, and acting. Traveling from coast to coast,
Travis Lee Ferguson is becoming a familiar name, and face in the entertainment
industry!

Model My Cover Spotlight: DeLonn Donovan
Not Another Damn Blog will spotlight models on Mondays, premiering with DeLonn Donovan. I'm lucky enough to spotlight the models here, too! Meanwhile, show the blog some love. https://www.facebook.com/NotADamnBlog
Dirty dreams, beautiful people. Kat
Getting to know DeLonn:


2.)
What is your
favorite romantic getaway? My favorite getaway would be anywhere with a beach, sun
and warm water. I would love to lay in the sand with that special woman and sip
tropical drinks by crystal clear blue water...
3.)
What do you enjoy
eating? I like eating lots of different things from Italian, to
Cuban, to Mexican. I do tend to like it hot and spicy, you know...full of
flavor.

4.) Where do you see yourself in 10 years' time? As the parent of a 14 year old, wow is that even possible! But no, really, I want to see my clothing line running well and being a leader in men's fashion, I want to be modeling and acting full time and be able to give back and mentor kids from backgrounds like mine.
5.) Do you prefer to work alone or with someone? Well, of course I prefer doing anything with another person. No one likes to work alone as much as they like to work with another. When the partnership is right and you get in sync with each other you can flow and ride the waves of thought and inspiration, it is a high like no other when you are with the right person. It is earth shaking and afterward, you're never the same.
