Fit Chick!
Meet Jaclyn Laquinto, a Finance Manager at Car Dealership. When she’s not at work, you can find her at the gym or chillin’ on the couch watching Netflix!
Were you excited to shoot for FHM Jaclyn? When I got the message from Chris that I was being considered for FHM, I didn’t believe him at first. I was feeling so many different things, I was nervous, I was in shock, I was a little scared (in a good way). But mostly I was super excited, I was smiling from ear to ear. I still am!
Tell us something surprising about you? This past October I competed in my very first Fitness Competition, I came in first place and received my PRO CARD. I surprised myself! I am now training for my second show in November at The Worlds, held in Toronto, Canada.
Could you describe yourself in one sentence? My heart is big and will love unconditionally for the right person!
What are some of your hobbies? Other than the gym?! Hmm? I’m a big foodie, so I would say finding new restaurants, having dinner and drinks with my girlfriends. Traveling is something I love to do, it’s just finding the time to do it, work always seems to get in the way.
What is your biggest turn on? My biggest turn on is a well-dressed man in a suit. He’s got to have that strong walk, that walk with confidence (like he knows people are looking) but, not too strong, we don’t want cocky.
What turns you off the most? Self-centered, arrogant men. I don’t want to hear you talk about yourself all night or how much money you have or how many cars you have. Be humble!
Could you describe your perfect date? This could go a couple of different ways. I’m a biker girl, so in the summer I want to be out on the bike, hitting the beach, soaking in the sun, grabbing lunch and drinks on the patio. In the winter, I go into hibernation mode, I love staying in making dinner, maybe open a bottle of red, listen to some music and then watch a movie snuggled up on the couch…
What would you consider to be your biggest challenge as a model so far? I don’t think there are too many challenges when it comes to being a model. People will generally judge and have a misconception once they find out I model. Not sure what they are judging me on but that’s ok, I can’t please everyone.
Any last words you would like to share with the readers? People will judge and people will talk. Make sure you give them something good to talk about.
