Part 1
Hi, i'm Alex Lundqvist here in beautiful Singapore.
What got you started?
A Friend of mine was going down to Milan and i never travelled so i went and i got instantly addicted to travelling.
So what did Alex do before he started modelling?
I was studying graphic deswign on computers and then i had to do this Swedish army service.
What do your family and friends feel about you being considered one of the top male models?
I don't know how much they consider that as they appreciate my coming back home and see them which is one of my favourite times of the year. i get to go home during Christmas and summer. And it's like you know that the toughest part (of modelling) is to leave everything behind just like that. But on the othre hand it gets to be more of a quality time now because now i appreciate it so much for the little time i get to be with them.
Alex has only been modelling for two and a half years but he has already noticed some changes.
For me, it's my personal experiences. It's been getting busier and busier. Where did this two and a half years go?
It just flies by.
Yeah time flies when you're having fun.
So is there much competition among male models?
I don't look at it that way coz if i don't get a job, i shouldn't have had it. Most of the people i know are really guys. Here the girls they have a jealously thing going on.
For the girls?
Yes you probably know more about that than i do.
Yeah i agree with you.
But it's not like this, at least between the guys i know. It's more of a like friendly thing.
What's the sillest question you've been asked?
I don't know. i don't do that many. I was offered this sightseeing tour of Singapore so alright i 'll do it!
So what's the sillest thing Alex has been asked to do?
Nah...
Oh why not?
But it's silly!
Share! Come on!
Um naaah...
Why not? It's decent isn't it?
But you know... at least i'm here!
Haha change the subject. That's excellent!
It really hasn't been too ad. i guess i've been lucky.

Part 2
What about skin care Alex? Are you very particular about it?
Yeah usually i've got two tricks. Water and soap!
So what does Alex like to do when he's not modelling?
I study, study advertising. I was supposed to go to advertising school in Sweden.
Oh i see.
... and graphic design... um and in the winter, i'm with my motorcycles in my apartment in New York and sometimes i take it for a spin!
Who's your favourite designer?
It depends so much on occasion for what kind of clothes you want to put on, but I'll have to say when it comes to a nice occasion and so on, Hugo Boss... day or night... nice suits... cool looking sportswear. That was great. We did the shoot for it in the Swedish archipelago so i got to go home to Sweden. We shot it on mid summer eve which is the longest day of the year and the sun is alomost up for 24 hours and that was really amazing!
You travel a lot and you're kept very very busy with work, so is there anyone special that you left behind?
Ooooh there's a lot of special people in my life.
Okay...
My brother, my sister, all my friends...
Haha... so you haven't met anyone in particular?
Um no not so far.
What would you look for in a girl?
A good heart.
Aww that's sweet.
Thank you very much for showing me around.
Take care of yourself.
