FIERCE COMPETITION

YOU VOTED, WE LISTENED: INTRODUCING THE FINALISTS.

Carla Tempesta, Runner-up

@carla.tempesta

Hometown: Conneaut, Ohio (currently living in Los Angeles)

How I got my start: I was discovered by a photographer on the set of a film. First time in front of the camera: I’d been acting since my early teens, so my comfort level in front of the camera translated into a comfortability with modeling.  I post whatever I feel like posting. I don’t follow a theme or a certain way of posting in order to garner more of a following. I’m just myself and I don’t portray anything other than who I am.  My favorite thing to do is drive my ’77 Trans-Am. I love muscle cars and anything ’70s, so it gives me a sense of freedom. I love going to shows, going out dancing, and spending time with the people I love.  Sing in a rock band.  I’ve been acting since my early teens, starting with musical theater, and I was a dancer from age 3 to 15, ballet and tap.  It’s really an honor to be in  among so many beautiful and accomplished women.
