Next Male Model Icon Cory Malcolm

Ok first thanks for working with me! It's nice to get a first hand perspective on the diversity in the modeling industry from different male aspects, and the things they encounter. Coming from the Empire State where there is nothing you can't do today I'm talking with Cory Malcolm.


LHP: Start by giving your background info on your life such as your birth name, age, and where you are from?



CM: I am a New Yorker at heart born and raised. 22 years old and my birth name is Cory Malcolm

LHP:Let's talk about motivation it takes a lot of courage to be the person in front the cameras and in the spotlight, is there ever any moment where you have any doubt? Or to take this question a bit more in-depth what goes through your mind when on display basically?

CM:So I really pull from my inner ego helps me through a lot of my shoots and being in front of the camera and just having fun. Because at the end of the day its all about art to me. Producing that amazing shot.

LHP:Next Male Model Icon thats a lot as you know from being in this industry yourself it's not as easy for a male to rise to star status, as it is for the female counterparts..So being depicted in this manner what does this mean for you?


CM:It means a lot, just because it started out with 17 of us, and having a title under my belt makes me stand out just a bit more then others. I never really worry about being a counterpart of any other model male or female. If I am booked to work with someone then the job will get done and the ego is left at the door.

LHP: Where is your agency located and describe the type of clientele you encounter, as well specifics on the type of shoots you are dealing with, are you tailored more towards high-end, urban, or commercial.

CM:Right now I am a freelance model, but with winning the next male model icon I became the face of the company as well as one of their newest spokes model. As far as agencies go I am shopping around and really pushing for a commercial department. I really see myself doing well there, urban will always fit my brand but I am always open to change.



LHP:What would you say are some of the things you don't like about being in the modeling industry?

CM:Its not about not liking anything about the model industry, you just have to be willing to be told NO! a million times before you get that perfect yes. Like with anything you must stay consistent and be willing to give 110% like I did and take the title.

LHP: In terms of marketing yourself in the entertainment industry, what business ventures do you want to partake in, and do you want to branch off into other areas?

CM:Well being that I do have the whole “boy next door” thing going on, I am focused on the commercial side of the industry and doing a lot of fit modeling work.



LHP: How would a close friend describe you?

CM:Outgoing, Big ego outspoken… gamer geek animal lover.

LHP:Name some of your strengths?

CM:Just having a great inner circle and knowing how to build a relationship with others and being able to network and take more from it then just a business card. I am always open will and honest about everything I do.

LHP:Name some of your weaknesses?

CM:My eating habits are crazy I just love to eat and I have a really bad video game addiction. Lol but sometimes it keeps me out of trouble.

LHP:Things you can't live without?

CM:My doggy Shadow, there isn’t a day I could live without him and the gym! And hello just making art its in my soul I am happy when am on set.

LHP: What's your five year plan?

CM:To be a better version of myself today and keep moving up up and away.

LHP:Personal style in terms of clothing what are you rocking?


CM:I am very simple jean and tee kind of guy, I wouldn’t say I am fashion driven but I am very aware of whats happening now. I never follow trends, I tend to lean more towards the fit of the clothing then a label.

LHP: Best Place to hangout where you are from?

CM:New York is what you make it, it’s a big sand box of drama laughs and fun. But the best place to hang is with me at home playing video games hahahah. Not many people can say they have.


CM:Shout outs to all the models who were apart of the next male model icon and the Unique definition team really showed us a great time while taping the show. Just get ready for a lot of laughs fun and tears lol….

Urban Insider talks Model Behavior with Mr. Alex Dominguez of RED Models NYC

With it now being officially spring and actually feeling like it, I thought what better way to celebrate than bringing in a little model behavior. Models often showcase the best of what the average person aspires to look like, from the clothes, the height, and even their hair. We chatted with Mr. Alex Dominguez for the proper insight, and here are our results....... Tell us a little about yourself such as where you are from, age, and for those who aren't familiar what agency you are currently signed with.....

Spotlight On:The New It Girl Jessica Burciaga

She has it all from the girl next door appeal, to extreme sex appeal. I first took notice of her when I saw the Jamie Foxx ft Drake "Fall For Your Type" video and to be honest I had to take a sceond glance because I really thought that she was JLO. It wasnt until recently when I actually found out who this stunning beauty is who looks like she could be Jennifer Lopez's little sister. Jessica Burciaga (born April 11, 1983) is an American model . Her father is Mexican and her mother is French and Irish . She was selected to be Playboy's February 2009 Playmate of the Month .   I think we are just starting to see the beginning of the beautiful Jessica, and that she has alot more in store......

Drew Vision Talks “Date Beyond” & “Big Little Lies” for VDay 2025

First and foremost thank you!!!! Now I’m not sure if you are familiar with Comospolitan magazine, well this setup for V-day is that from a guy’s perspective I love that you decided to bring up dating and relationships because as guys, we never really have the forum to really express that. With that being said what is your ideal first date and why….     Yeah, men can never express! And we’re expected not to have feelings so for most of my life, I didn’t, but I’ve been tapped in lately. For a first date I think it should be something very casual because the stakes shouldn’t be high. My ideal first date is something in nature like a scenic walk or a picnic. The reason is because nobody should be spending money on someone you don’t know and also it shouldn’t be somewhere loud because I think the conversation is the most important thing.  Is it ok to ask what your dating situation is like gender wise, and how do you really know if you’re attracted to that person or is it just ...
