AM: How old are you, where are you from and where are you based?

Marketa Belonoha: Hi, I am 25 years old and I am from the Czech republic, and I am based also in Czech republic in my home-town called Hradec Kralove.

AM: How did you start glamour and nude modelling? How did you begin?

Marketa Belonoha: I started to be interested in modelling world in my 16. Made some small advertising campaigns, made some TV spots and got to glamour and nude photosessions in my 18.

AM: Do you remember your first nude shoot? What do you remember about it?

Marketa Belonoha: I am sorry, but I really don't remember my first nudes shoot. It was many years ago.

AM: What would your best advice to a beginner (a girl) who would like to start now?

Marketa Belonoha: My advice for every young girl is to be very careful and not trustful and naive. Trust only yourself. Money is not the only important thing. Young girls should try to behave like professionals. If she is contacted by an agency or photographer, she should get as much information as possible about it. The most important are references. So not all agencies or photographers are safe to work for.

AM: Any mistake you would not repeat if you had the chance to start all over again?

Marketa Belonoha: I think that everybody make mistakes. So did I :-) But it simply belongs to our lives. It's important to enlighten self from those mistakes and not to repeat them.

AM: Let's talk about men :-) You ideal type of man is... And, always talking about men, you really dislike a man when...

Marketa Belonoha: My ideal type of man doesn't exist but I prefer men with big heart, sense of humour and who likes animals and nature.

AM: Fans and the general public tend to see only the bright side of your profession. What about the 'less bright' sides, if there are any? How difficult is it to reach the top, and stay on the top in this business?

Marketa Belonoha: Also this business has bright and dark sides. Every piece of success is bought for very hard work and renunciation. Practically all photo sessions have no overmuch ideal conditions. Sometimes they're really extreme. Too hot, too cold and you still have to look fresh, full of fun, optimistic etc. To stay on top is very hard I think. You have to work hard, have luck and also luck for good people around.

AM: Could you tell us something more about your daily life, your 'normal life'? What are your hobbies, your activities, your interests?

Marketa Belonoha: I don't love luxury life as someone could expect. Whenever I am on business 'trip' I simply live normal life with classic needs, nothing extra. At home I have my two cats that need my care and I enjoy it. I also like taking pictures of them. Work of photographer engaged me so much that I would like to try this interesting work, so I would like to try opposite side of my work. So I am trying to be a photographer and my cats are models ;-) I also spend a lot of time by administration of my website and I would for example spend whole my life by only answering my e-mails. As you know I also prepare another website, site dedicated to cats. It will contain also my pictures of cats. Among my additional hobbies belongs music so I often spend time on concerts. I also do aerobic, swimming or play computer gamez. My latest discovery was for example 'GT Legends'. Really cool game.

AM: Is it possible to have real friends in your business, and if yes, who are your best friends?

Marketa Belonoha: I have some friends in my business, but to gain real friends I think it's improbable... You can gain real friends most probably during studies, like I did, or from your neighbourhood.

BiM: You are perhaps the best and most famous nude model in the world. Do you like it?

Marketa Belonoha: These are very strong words, thank you very much for the compliment, though. I think there’s lot more beautiful women on this planet, still it was very kind of you to say that :-) But don’t forget, beauty is more important on the inside, the way we are more then the way we look.

BiM: What is most important to you, money, fame, family, or something other?

Marketa Belonoha: The most important thing for me is happiness, good health, to have wonderful people around me, my family and friends. But the most important in my opinion is health, as health and love can’t be bought.

BiM: How old are you?

Marketa Belonoha: 24, but feel like 18 :-)

BiM: When did you begin modeling?

Marketa Belonoha: With modeling I began at 16, but I didn’t start nude pictures until 18.

BiM: Did you do nudes always?

Marketa Belonoha: No. At the beginning of my modeling, I was very young and shot some erotic pictures. However I soon realized That it wasn't me and I quit it. I also started to get better and better offers and didn’t want to miss any opportunity.

BiM: What does your family think of nudes? Is it okay?

Marketa Belonoha: Yes. My family supports me very much. It’s the best family in the whole world :-)

BiM: Are you married? Do you have a family or children?

Marketa Belonoha: No, I’m not married, but I have two girls-cats (pics) and a very big male cat :-)

BiM: Do you do porn? Why or why not?

Marketa Belonoha: No, because I want to keep the most intimate moments for me and the "right" person :-)

BiM: Do you like your photos? What is your faviourite photos of Marketa?

Marketa Belonoha: Yes, I have tons of favorite pictures, mainly the ones on my website.

BiM: Who is your favorite model, photographers, websites?

Marketa Belonoha: Martin Kinkal and Marketa4you.com :-)

BiM: You have a good education. Many people tell us you are very intelligent. What subjects do you learn in school now?

Marketa Belonoha: I study Information Management at the University of Hradec Kralove (Hradec Kralove is my town), Faculty of Informatics and Management. Subjects: programming, application statistics, system theory, stochastic modeling, information system projects, macroeconomic, microeconomic, management, data structures, oparating systems, PC support project, information technologies, technologies for publication on website etc. My graduation is barely a month away, end of May, therefore wish me luck as I may become Engineer Marketa Belonoha :-)

BiM: Do you have hobbies? When not modeling, what do you like to do?

Marketa Belonoha: I have lots of hobbies. My biggest hobby are animals, I also bought a very good camera EOS 350 D and started photographing, not only being photographed :-) I really enjoy it and plan on, after graduation, starting a new website with beautiful pictures of cats and dogs. Mainly cats, because i love them and lot of my friends have cats... It will contain beautiful pictures and just like my website (Marketa4you.com) it will be "pay for" site, but with the collected money I would like to help stray cats and give most of it to animal shelters. My other hobby is sport, I enjoy swimming and i also do aerobic. I do 2-3 times a week aerobic and one time i go to swimming pool. I also love very much music, concerts, movies and traveling.

BiM: Do you think the world is fair to women who pose nude?

Marketa Belonoha: It's all about people and how are they able to deal with it, get above it and don't let it bother them. The way I see it, woman's body is beautiful, no one should be ashamed to show it or take a professional picture of beautiful body.

BiM: The goal of SuperBeauty.Org is to make the world fair to beautiful women. Do you agree with this cause?

Marketa Belonoha: Yes.

BiM: Why sometimes do some people treat women very badly, such as Islamic countries etc.

Marketa Belonoha: It's about their religion, believes and tradition, but I am not saying that I agree with it In these countries woman is something lesser which I don't understand. Let liberty of every race and nationality live. This question requires much more words, but I’ll try to sum it up. I believe that one of the reason is the fact that these countries are poor and don't have enough options for education. Therefore most people have very little education which makes them more vulnerable to manipulation.

BiM: What is your goal for the future? Acting? Babies? Education? Profession?

Marketa Belonoha: Right now it's to finish university and get my degree. For sure I want to continue modeling as I am very much enjoying it. However I'm not sure for how long, it'll depend on contract offers. I want a child for sure, but I’ll wait a while yet. After school, in a month, I want to give my full attention to my website (Marketa4you.com) and get started on the other site with cats and dogs and help stray animals.

BiM: What will Marketa do in the future 10 years?

Marketa Belonoha: Who knows? :-) For sure I want to do all of above mentioned.

BiM: What projects do you work on now? We hear you work with Playboy? Can you tell us something about this?

Marketa Belonoha: Yes. In November and December 2005 I was for the second time in a fashion agency in Florida and besides fashion modeling I took time to shoot pictures for Playboy. They were published in Playboy's Natural Beauties, Playboy's Nude and Plaboy's Lingerie. The last two are now on news stands. I worked with awesome photographer Jarmo Pohjaniemi, whom I want to thank this way. It was fantastic shoot and some of these you'll be able to view on my website. I hope you will like them.

BiM: Finally, you have your own website. It is excellent and you are most beautiful in these photos. Are you proud of this?

Marketa Belonoha: Yes, I am :-)

BiM: We hope for you very much success in the future. Thank you for your answers.

Marketa Belonoha: I thank you, take care, Marketa
