Video model Tahiry became equally known for her ample assets and for dating rapper Joe Budden. Here, she opens up about marathon sex and toys in the bedroom. You kind of became a sex symbol overnight. Now you’re in magazines and videos. How has the experience been overall? I think it’s awesome. I can’t really complain about it. I think curves on a woman are sexy. I really do appreciate how people put me on that whole sex symbol status. Did you ever think this would be happening to you? No. Not at all. I did think when I was a little young that videos were really hot, and I’d look at video vixens and think that I could definitely see myself doing that. Cause I’ve always been curvaceous and stuff. I never really pursued it cause I’m really shy, although a lot of people may not think so. So, when it did happen, it caught me by surprise that it was actually me on the cover [of King Magazine]. You’ve already said that you are curvaceous. But what do you consider to be your sexiest body part? My cleavage and my stomach. My waist is really small. I’ve always said if you put my ass on a bigger chick it wouldn’t look huge. I just think it’s the way I’m proportioned. Overall, the way I’m proportioned is my sexiest part, or my stomach area. Do you ever feel like your ass brings too much attention to you? I love my booty. And I remember at the age of 18, I was a cadet in college, and I walked into the police academy and I had some slacks on, cause I’m supposed to be wearing business attire. And as I walk into this big gym where all the recruits were working out, they all stopped. That day, I wish I could have just found a little hole and hid. It was a whole gym full of men. It was about 10 women and about 200 men, and all the men stopped and saluted my booty. (laughs) Okay. I’m going to name two celebrities and you tell us which one you’d rather sleep with. Kanye West or Common? Damn, I’d sleep with both of them. For different reasons…Common is so smart. Not that Kanye isn’t smart, but Common and the way he rhymes. And Kanye because of his swag. They both would probably get it. (laughs)
