Alex: What do you do for a living?
Brigitte: Army Auditor (not in the military - civil service).
Alex: Holy crap, what does that mean?
Brigitte: Haha! I don't wear the green uniform, normal office job; I just audit the military, specifically the Army.
Alex: Ok. Just don't audit us.
Brigitte: Haha! No, not you. Like making sure funds are being spent appropriately. Tax dollar money.
Alex: Do you do anything else?
Brigitte: I model, I do print, runway, television and movies.
Alex: Wow, when did you start doing all that?
Brigitte: Professionally and seriously about 3 years ago.
Alex: Quick, how many photo shoots do you think you have been in? You have five seconds starting…Now!
Brigitte: Ahhhhhh! 30?
Alex: Final answer?
Brigitte: Haha! Something like that, couldn't be sure. Maybe more. I'd have to look at my resume.
Alex: No cheating!
Brigitte: Haha! Probably 30-40 photo shoots.

Alex: Ok, close enough. What is your least favorite part about modeling?
Brigitte: Pressure to always look your best in a bikini at a drop of a hat. Shoots can be last minute and there's no time to hit up the gym. Always being looked at.
Alex: So do you eat healthy?
Brigitte: Try to. I mean I'm constantly thinking about a healthier option, just doesn't always work out.
Alex: If you could make one fatty food healthy what would it be?
Brigitte: French fries!
Alex: Nice! Is that your weakness?
Brigitte: Oh yeah.. I make it a habit about 3 times a week at least.
Alex: So you could say you are an addict?
Brigitte: Totally. My own personal drug.
Alex: How long does it usually take you to get ready to go out?
Brigitte: About an hour and a half.
Alex: Hey, faster than us. We are procrastinators for sure.
Brigitte: Yeah, that hour and a half usually means I had the TV on or I’m dancing around to music.
Alex: Yeah we have about 2 hours of dance time ourselves.
Brigitte: It's necessary.

Alex: For sure. What is your perfect Friday night out?
Brigitte: Meeting up with my girlfriends, having a pre-drink at my place, then heading to the spot of the night. Just being around my friends makes me happy. Even if that means at a movie theater with lots of popcorn!
Alex: Popcorn and French fries, awesome. What's your pre-drink of choice?
Brigitte: Sometimes a straight shot of vodka or a vodka soda unless I have Monster lo-cal in the fridge.
Alex: Wow..that’s gangster. I'm love with Grey Goose. We have an open relationship.
Brigitte: I dig. I love the Goose, so I understand.
Alex: It does get you feelin' really loose.
Brigitte: How does the song go? Loose on the Goose??
Alex: Fergie Ferg, I think?
Brigitte: haha!
Alex: What is the most common thing guys say when they approach you?
Brigitte: Hmmmm… Usually something about what I'm drinking..
Alex: As a pick-up line?
Brigitte: More to get a conversation started.
Alex: Does it work?
Brigitte: I'll answer back…

Alex: Good to know. So, what do you look for in a guy?
Brigitte: Honesty, loyalty, good heart and smile, and he has to be tall.
Alex: Damn, I'm 5' 9". Do I make the cut?
Brigitte: Well I'm 5'8" and I like to wear 4 inch heels which would make me 3 inches taller than you :/
Alex: Well let me borrow some heels then I'll win.
Brigitte: I think they make platform inserts for guys
Alex: Wow really? That’s cheating.
Brigitte: Totally. There goes that honesty! Ha!
Alex: Well enough about my height. You're giving me a complex. Do you have a "stupid human trick?"
Brigitte: I can bend my thumb almost 180 degrees backwards at the joint. That count?
Alex: Wait, what!?! Does it hurt?
Brigitte: Haha! No, just makes my thumb crack a little.
Alex: Good for hitchhiking I guess.
Brigitte: Exactly!

Alex: What's the worst way you’ve broken up with a guy?
Brigitte: Oooohhhh… Geez. Well. It wasn't a bad way.. just not a fun way
Alex: Do tell.
Brigitte: Sigh... I was engaged once and broke off the wedding. I flew 10,000 miles away to cancel it all and give back the ring.
Alex: At least it was in person. Kudos.
Brigitte: Yeah. Like I said, not a bad way just not fun.
Alex: I bet that plane ride was hell.
Brigitte: oh yeah it was suuuuuuper awesome. Like 24 hours of travel.
Alex: So, onto a lighter note: What song gets you dancing at home?
Brigitte: There's a couple right now: Sam Sparro - Black and Gold. And don't laugh at the next one: Miley Cyrus - Party in the USA.
Alex: Oh my god, are you serious?
Brigitte: I know. I know. it's sooo catchy!
Alex: That brings me to my next question: Do you think it's weird that she's portrayed as a sex symbol? She's not legal!
Brigitte: I guess I never thought of her as a sex symbol. She's a super cute girl with a lot of natural talent in the public eye and I guess by default the thought of her as a sex symbol will happen.
Alex: yeah, I just think it’s a little strange.
Brigitte: wait until she turns 18! Ha!

Alex: What's the youngest guy you've dated; age difference-wise?
Brigitte: 2 years and 9 months younger than me, my current boyfriend. My other boyfriends have usually been my age.
Alex: That’s not too bad. Does he make jokes about it?
Brigitte: Well, he's in a band and one time he said my name while on stage, he referenced how "old" I was. Soooo not cool. I was not happy.
Alex: Ok, so don't make fun of a girls age… Got it.
Brigitte: Jokingly, yes. It's ok. I’ve got a sense of humor. But there are right and wrong times of doing it.
Alex: What's your biggest pet peeve?
Brigitte: Hypocrisy.
Alex: Wow that was fast.
Brigitte: I don't like it.
Alex: So which one is worse, hypocrisy or lying?
Brigitte: Well sometimes they can go together. But if I absolutely had to choose one: Lying. No need for it.
Alex: So I'm like 6' 4", what are you drinking?
Brigitte: Noooooooooooooooo hahahahaha!
Alex: What are your top 5 websites? (think hard).
Brigitte: MSN, Kayak, Google, Craigslist…
Alex: and...
Brigitte: And any fashion blog. I have a few.
Alex: Fail.
Brigitte: Ha.
Alex: This interview is over. We’ll just edit us in there.
Brigitte: DST! You guys are a sort of fashion blog.
Alex: Oh it's too late now… now you're lying.

Brigitte: Well I technically can't get to your site from work. I have to from my blackberry haha!
Alex: Excuses excuses. Let's get some very serious questions answered. Would you rather be a Smurf or a Telletubby, and why?
Brigitte: Smurf. They were way more fashionable.
Alex: Do you think it's weird that there are so many Smurfs, yet only one Smurfette?
Brigitte: I do think it's weird. Either that or she was one smart girl.
Alex: Is "smart” code for something? Because I was thinking of a different word.
Brigitte: I know what you were thinking! Dirty dirty.
Alex: Haha. Just saying…
Brigitte: Exactly, we both know.
Alex: Can you name all the 7 dwarves in Snow White?
Brigitte: No, maybe like 3 of them. Can you??
Alex: Uh hold on...Google…
Brigitte: That's cheating! Haha! Grumpy, Sneezy, Sleepy, Happy… is there a sneezy?
Alex: Yup.
Brigitte: Donner and Blitzen! Haha!
Alex: Hahaha!
Brigitte: Oh yeah: Dopey! That's 5…
Alex: Just looked it up Bashful and Doc.
Brigitte: Ahhhhh, yes, that's it. Those are the harder ones to figure out.
Alex: For sure. Doc isn't even an adjective?
Brigitte: Haha! Good catch.

Alex: So on a scale from 0 - 10, How well do you rate yourself as a kisser?
Brigitte: Well I've never kissed myself but haven't had complaints. 9.9?
Alex: Wow! Impressive.
Brigitte: I kind of rock! :)
Alex: I'm like a 5, but an 11 when I've had a couple drinks. Come up with a seductive flavor for a new jelly bean.
Brigitte: Hmmm. Good question. Brigilicious. It'll taste like cotton candy and vanilla.
Alex: Shameless self promotion. Love it. What's your favorite smell on a guy?
Brigitte: I dig that Banana Republic cologne. I think it's just called Banana Republic.
Alex: Ok gotta make a quick trip to Ala Moana.
Brigitte: Hahaha! It's heavenly.
Alex: So we know a girl that eats pickles & ice cream. Do you have any strange food combos you like?
Brigitte: Mashed potatoes and ketchup.
Alex: Never tried it, any good?
Brigitte: Oh, and beans on toast!
Alex: That’s Brit food!
Brigitte: Exactly. I love it. I used to live in England :)
Alex: Ok last question.
Brigitte: Ok, it better be good! Ha!
Alex: According to the band Journey, do you ever stop believing?
Brigitte: I have a tattoo on my side ribs that says "Believe in Love..." Never stop believing or hoping for anything... Passion, love, friendship, family... Things that make you strive for what you want.
Alex: Wow. Deep.
Brigitte: Deep.
