In the world of modelling, being chosen as the human face and body of computer heroine Lara Croft has become something of a curse...
But Nell McAndrew has worn the silly ponytail for over a
year now, and so far the gorgeous 25-year-old's grenade-handling
skills have brought nothing but acclaim. She did get some gamers'
backs up when she dared to say she preferred high heels and glamour
togs to Lara's rubber vest and skimpy shorts...
But with her first presenting gig - as a VJ on VH1's Spice - already
under her belt, it looks like Nell might just beat the Tomb Raider
voodoo and stay in the limelight. Which can only be good news
for the rest of us - especially if it means more pictures along
the lines of her sensational FHM shoot...
I love the music I play - George Benson, Luther Vandross and George Michael. And it's better than modelling because I get to pick the videos and write the links.
You recently had your breasts
enlarged. Will you be having anything else done?
Maybe when I'm older. But
there's so many things that can go wrong. Your face can go lumpy
or look slanted, and I'm not that wrinkly yet, so I don't really
need it.
You've said implants make you feel sexier.
So would you mind if a boyfriend had his knob enlarged?
Only if they really thought
it would make them feel better. I'd be a bit scared to do anything
with it, to be honest. I've never seen one that has been enlarged,
but at the end of the day, it's what you do with it.
What part of a man's body really does get you
going then?
His bum and thighs. I don't
expect a man to be Mr Fitness - I'm not into that big muscle thing,
because those men are into themselves too much. I think men look
better with clothes on. Last year, I was on a nudist beach in
Ibiza and didn't know where to look. The male member looks really
odd flapping about when the guy is bending over. Having said that,
one man was particularly blessed, and all the girls were staring.
He must have seen us, because he started swinging it about.
You've been single for six months now. You
must be champing at the bit for some action. Are you?
I do miss sex - but I'm
a nice girl so I don't do one-night stands. And it's nice to feel
you have the option of going out with someone if they chat you
up. I'm not after commitment right now.
So what sort of place is the ideal McAndrew
mating ground?
I like open fires, candles
and music - deep down I'm a bit of a romantic. But any excitement
would do at the moment.
