Read\u00a0my\u00a0Q&amp;A with Georgina below\u00a0in\u00a0the newest PCS collaboration with a creative professional.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pop Culture Spin: Georgina, thank you for having this Q&amp;A with me\/Pop Culture Spin. To start our interview, what resulted in you becoming a fire performer?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina:\u00a0I started out as a freestyle stage\/podium dancer and it kind of flowed from there. First I learnt to stilt walk and in a few months I was running up and down the stairs on those bad boys and then I thought hey why not spit some fire and before you know it I&#8217;m putting out flames in my mouth :)<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: So to ready yourself for an event, how much practice and rehearsing do you conduct ahead of time to be prepared for a fire performance?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: I think practise and perfection just comes with time, obviously at first I was crazy nervous and now it&#8217;s just second nature. I have to prepare safety wise of course but as for myself I love the vibes and buzz and I&#8217;m quite confident I&#8217;m a good performer so it all just comes naturally.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: I&#8217;m not super familiar with this world which is why I&#8217;m asking this question\u00a0&#8211; is the danger level exceptionally high or do you have enough control over the flames that you always feel safe?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: I guess if you&#8217;re inexperienced then yes the danger is extremely high I mean it&#8217;s flames and flammable substances. I have to have insurance and do\u00a0risk assessments etc but I&#8217;m confident I take all the right safety precautions and I&#8217;ve been doing it for 8 years so I&#8217;m pretty knowledgeable on the health and safety aspect.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: You&#8217;re also a model, dancer, and regular gym-goer in addition to what we&#8217;ve already discussed. From all of these areas, do you have a greatest passion or are they appreciated equally?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: Yes I love love love the gym!!!!!! I started training 3 years ago and love bodybuilding, I mean it&#8217;s amazing watching your body transform into something you never knew could happen!!! Modelling is fairly new for me its only been over the past few years so I still get nervous but the photographers I&#8217;ve worked with are great and make you feel super confident. They&#8217;re all a massive passion of mine and I&#8217;m incorporating them all into my future work!<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: What would you say is your style as a model?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: My style as a model is definitely fitness\/alternative. I think it&#8217;s a unique look as I try and go for both aspects which gives a little edge!<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: As you just mentioned, you seem unique in that you have an enticing look with the tattoos but also a fitness friendly body. Would you say this aspect is one of your strong points?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: I guess the above answers this question too, yes I would say the fitness &amp; tattoos bounce off each other well and give me a unique style and look (well I hope so anyway).<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: Are you the type who almost goes to the gym every day or do you find time for break periods and off days?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: Yes I go to the gym 5\/6 days a week BUT I can&#8217;t stress enough how important rest days are!!!!!! Your body needs time to recover and rest or else there&#8217;s almost no point in training. Your body grows as you recover! Eat, train, sleep, repeat!!<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: Is health\/fitness modeling something you plan to incorporate into your work more in the future given your passion for exercising?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: Yes 100% it is something I&#8217;m going to incorporate into my future work. I have some exciting things lined up for 2016 so let&#8217;s see what this year brings.<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: You mentioned 2016 &#8211; what can fans expect to see from you in the fire performance and modeling worlds this year?<\/strong><br \/>\nGeorgina: I am currently working on a few projects including my website and YouTube launch so keep tuned to find out!<\/p>\n<p><strong>PCS: Thank you again for the interview, Georgina.
