Tell us about a bit about yourself? My name is Layla Hayek I’m an open-minded Model based out of NYC but I am available to travel all around the world.

What was your initial reaction when you were chosen to shoot for FHM? When my publicist told me about the opportunity I think we were both screaming at each other with excitement.

How do you prepare for a shoot? It’s months of preparation. Meal plans, meal plans, and more meal plans.

Describe your perfect man… He is strong enough to be soft.

What is your ideal date? Sharing a common hobby. I love riding horses. Perhaps galloping on a beach somewhere.

What do you do for fun? I love traveling.

Tell us a bit about your most embarrassing moment… Ha! I will admit I tend to forget about things that don’t bring me pleasure.

What would you say is the most difficult part about modeling? The lifestyle isn’t for everyone. It takes a lot of discipline.

What are you most looking forward to doing this year? Traveling more. Covid has definitely made things more challenging.

Lastly, what is your life motto or a quote that means a lot to you? Nevertheless, It’s by Elizabeth Taylor “Big girls need big diamonds.”
