Dominic is a professional DJ who lives with friends on the Gold Coast. Growing up, his father was a surfer and taught him a love of the ocean. He now surfs recreationally and skimboards competitively on a professional level. Dominic hopes to pursue a career in modeling while holding on to his two other passions, music and waves.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: What originally got you interested in doing the show, had you done modeling in your past?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: I have done a bit of modeling, no runway, just random photos shoots.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: How excited were you when you guys were introduced to your judging panel? I know many of you guys were excited to see Tyson Beckford and Niki Taylor.

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: I knew there would be someone big since most of the reality shows bring in people with credibility. It was cool to see Niki Taylor, she has been household name since I was a kid and Tyson is the tough guy all the ladies want.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: Did you like Niki and Tyson?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: I think they wanted to say more positive things to us but could not. This experience is so different from the real modeling world. It has similarities but it was so different, it’s still a TV show and not a true modeling deal but it was a great experience.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: Talk to me about the catwalk problems you had. You exited the show saying you were given bad advice on how to walk?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: There was a bit of editing and taking things out of context. I’m not really that big a dick and I did not talk trash about anyone while I was there. I did not think my walk was as bad as it was made out to be. I was told to slouch on one of my cat walks so and I did it. Everything they told me I tried to do and I did as I was told.

I watched the last critique the judges had about me and they said I wasn’t trying and didn’t care. The fact is I was trying but I think there was some miscommunication between the cast, the instructors, and the judges.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: What about your housemates you also mentioned there was a lot of trash talking going on about you?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: That was one thing I didn’t want to do while I was in the house. As far as my housemates I think I was a big threat since I was very confident and doing my thing so they wanted me out of the house. I know they wanted to make someone a model and I think I already have several of those qualities.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: Did you see the Ben Ronnie and Aryan deal? What did you think about that?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: I think its more for show and play but who knows, Ben is a newlywed and I am sure its tough for his wife to see all of this on TV. I like Ben and I think he is a nice kid. I hope Ben becomes a model, he is working it for all he can and I think he has a great chance.

Regarding Ben and Ronnie I think this is the first time Ben has had such a close gay friend. I know Ronnie is an only child and embracing Ben as sort of a brother. I think Ben and Ronnie are like brothers and giving each other that brotherly bond and respect.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: What has surprised you from watching the past few episodes?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: I was surprised to see Casey call me a bitch but he was a bit intimidated by me and I always felt a weird vibe, it’s probably due to the fact he is only 19.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: If you had to team up with someone on a photo shoot who would you pick and why?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: Shannon since we are both long and limber

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: Who would you not pick?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: Casey

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: If you could text one vote to keep Aryn, Holly or Jay who would you pick and why?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: I would vote for Jay, he is a solid kid and has a great look, he just needs to polish up his catwalk.

Q. Mark, RealityWanted.com: Thanks for taking the time to chat with us today. Do you have a Myspace you would like to share with fans or a personal website?

A. Dominic, Make Me A Supermodel: People can find me at www.myspace.com/gnarlydeejay
