What do you do when you’re not posing for FHM?
I work at a beach bar in Perth and I’m loving every second of it. All the staff are such goofballs and it’s a lot of fun.

Can you share any funny anecdotes about this FHM photo shoot in Thailand?
It’s got to be when “Sexual Healing” by Marvin Gaye played on the speakers – it put us all in a silly mood and that’s how you get the best shots!

When do you feel sexy? 
When I’m hanging out at home, no make-up, in my PJs and blasting music on my speakers – it’s therapeutic to me.

What have you learnt about men over the years?
That they are just as sensitive as women.

What do you look for in a man?
Kindness, an open mind and he must be taller than me.

Where would you like to be in five years?
I’d love to have a beautiful home with my partner, travelling the world, working with brands on social media and creating amazing content, enjoying each day that is given to me and being completely and utterly full of peace and happiness.

Elizabeth Bert https://fhmescapes.com/elizabeth-bert/ Fri, 16 Nov 2018 09:00:32 +0000 http://www.maxim.com.au/?p=8408 HOMETOWN: Annapolis, Maryland, USA
BORN: August 28, 1993
FIVE-WORD SELF-DESCRIPTION: “Kind, persistent, elegant, sometimes funny.”
HIDDEN TALENT: “People are surprised when they hear I have my pilot’s license and can fly a single prop aircrafts.”
PHOBIA: “My deepest phobia is pain. I fear pain more than death.”
GIRL CRUSH: “Gal Gadot and Natalie Portman.”

What would people be most surprised to learn about you?
That I went to an Ivy League school in the U.S. called Columbia University which only accepts around five percent of its applicants, and graduated at the top of my class. I didn’t do that by being the smartest person in the proverbial room, but by being the most hard-working and persistent. I never gave up even while simultaneously running my own cashmere company and modelling. I think some people equate being “sexy” with not necessarily being much else.

When do you feel sexy?
I feel sexiest when I’m wearing an oversized T-shirt with no bra and eating pizza. I live in New York City, the best city in the world for pizza, so there’s really nothing like it.

What is your best asset?
Physically, I would say my eyes and legs. I have very long legs which sometimes makes flying super difficult – there’s just never enough leg room.

What do you look for in a man?
Kindness and patience. With time, looks will change and evolve, but kindness is perennial. Money and good looks are great but if I had to choose I’d rather have a kind man than a rich or handsome one.

Where would you like to be in five years?
Besides being featured on more magazine covers, like FHM and Sports Illustrated, I want to also raise awareness for people like me with invisible diseases such as Crohn’s and colitis. I want little girls and boys to see me and realize if I can follow my dreams with such huge obstacles in my life, that they can do it as well – anything is possible.

Ashley Arre https://fhmescapes.com/ashley-arre/ Mon, 12 Nov 2018 09:00:40 +0000 http://www.maxim.com.au/?p=8404 HOMETOWN: Miami Beach, Florida, USA
BORN: May 14, 1994
NICKNAME: “Cupcake because I’m the sweetest girl you will ever know.”
FIVE-WORD SELF-DESCRIPTION: “Kind, curious, loving, smart and beautiful.”
GIRL CRUSH: “Paris Hilton. I’ve always admired her style and boss bitch attitude.”
FAVE DRINK: “Definitely Tequila 1942 all day every day, any time any place.”
LIFE MOTTO: “Peace and blessings manifest with every lesson learnt.”
INSTAGRAM: @ashley.arre

How would you best explain this Thailand trip?
It was an amazing opportunity offered by Maxim Australia to the hottest babes on the planet to spend a week together for fun, laughs, lingerie, social media influencing and photo shooting. This trip felt like a giant slumber party that you can only dream of in your best fantasy. Each day was nonstop bikinis, lingerie and mostly nude babes frolicking around the house taking photos for our Instagram accounts.

When do you feel sexy?
After an early morning gym session, then taking a shower and getting super fresh to start my day. Knowing I started on the most productive note gives me an ultimate feeling of confidence and appeal.

What is your best asset?
Kindness. I strongly believe kindness is intelligence and it takes a highly intelligent person to remain humble and kind in trying situations. I always strive to leave a lasting impression that will have a person feeling great about themselves after having an experience with me.

What would you do if you weren’t modelling?
I’d be a professional golfer. At school I was the captain of the golf team and had a great passion for it. If I could redo one thing in my life it would be to stick with golfing. Who knows, maybe a tournament will be in my near future.

What have you learnt about men over the years?
No matter what age, demographic standpoint or location in the world, men love to lie for fun. And I mean this in the lightest way possible. I think its women intuition to know these things and detect the foolishness, but I find it hilarious.

Where would you like to be in five years?
I’d love to be happy and healthy. I like to live in the moment and know I am destined for greatness. I expect myself to be the best version of myself and always improve for the better.

BORN: January 26, 1997
FIVE-WORD SELF-DESCRIPTION: “Dedicated, career-focused, spontaneous, adventurous, passionate.”
HIDDEN TALENT: “I paint. I don’t show it off too much, but it’s one of those things that relaxes me once I get going.”
HANGOVER CURE: “Coffee is the cure to everything.”
PHOBIA: “I hate spiders… and anything small that has legs and can potentially make me see the sight of death.”
LIFE MOTTO: “Do whatever makes you happy, don’t care what other people think and don’t be judgmental. Live life to the fullest because life is too short to have regrets.”

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m an American girl from a very small country town in the state of Oklahoma. I was raised around fast cars, dirt bikes, guns and fishing. I never thought I could be a model growing up, because I stopped growing when I hit a whole whopping 157cm, but look where I am!

What would you do if you weren’t modelling?
I’ve been modelling for a little under a year but if I wasn’t I’d probably be dancing on tour for a music artist.

What is your best asset?
My eyes and hair. Eyes can always tell a story – they tell thoughts and emotions through a photo without even saying a word – I love that. And I love the saying, “Letting your hair down” because I love to let loose during a photo shoot and just have fun.

When do you feel sexy?
In front of a camera wearing nothing but heels. I think a woman’s body is a piece of natural art and comes in various shapes and forms – being able to be confident in your own skin is sexy.

What’s one thing men should always remember about women?
Women are unpredictable. We have emotions that range from day to day because our hormones are crazy and sometimes our bodies tell us differently. We also like to change our minds a lot – if you didn’t already know! And we love sex just as much as men – we all may not say it but it’s true.

What do you look for in a man?
Someone who is just as spontaneous and light-hearted as me and who I can connect with on a level where he knows what I’m thinking without even speaking. Even though I’m very independent I look for someone who can support me, not only in my career but also with a little stability at home. Ultimately, I look for someone who is willing to explore life with the mindset that life is short.

What’s next for you?
Short term, I will be shooting again with FHM Australia in a couple months and I couldn’t be any more excited! Long term, I’m working towards an acting career where I would love to be casting for movies, events and possibly a host.

Brianna Persch https://fhmescapes.com/brianna-persch/ Thu, 08 Nov 2018 09:00:48 +0000 http://www.maxim.com.au/?p=8400 HOMETOWN: Brisbane, Qld
BORN: November 11,1992
FIVE-WORD SELF-DESCRIPTION: “Bubbly, street-smart, intuitive, resourceful, versatile.”
JOB: “I also work as a personal carer for an aged and disability company.”
BEST ASSET: “Making the best of any situation.”
PHOBIA: “I’m not a fan of heights.”
FAVE DRINK: “Espresso Martini or something completely different, fruity and refreshing.”
LIFE MOTTO: “An eye for an eye will only make the whole world blind. Yeah, a bit corny but I like it all the same.”
INSTAGRAM: @briannapersch

What would people be most surprised to learn about you?
I owned my first home at 20 – working as soon as I hit legal age, I travelled and lived life to the fullest and did the best with what I had to work with. Oh, and I used to work on a gas field/mine site and lived in a local town in the middle of nowhere and I barely watch TV.

Any funny anecdotes you can share about this Thailand trip?
The videographer, Cameron, sliding M&M’s into my mouth from the other side of the three-metre-long dining table. This and my photo shoot on the stairs where I’m trying to look appealing whilst holding my body up! I had an amazing experience in Koh Samui and I’m very grateful to everyone who made it what it was.

When do you feel sexy?
When I’m in active wear and had a really good work out at the gym… oddly enough.

What do you look for in a man?
Someone who is witty, funny, kind, caring and who treats everyone equally no matter their status, job, religion or race. But it seems my taste in men has progressively worsened!

What’s next for you?
We will have to see. I believe everything happens for a reason and this trip is lining up my path for the next amazing thing. In five years I want to be happy, healthy, loved, successful and a wealth that can’t be bought.

INSTAGRAM: @annadurkiin

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m 21, born and raised in Sydney, and have studied at university. I realised modelling is a career path I’m more passionate about – I’ve been modelling for about two years now and love it. I also love animals – I rescue abandoned animals and give them a loving home. I wish I could combine both into a career.

When do you feel sexy?
When I’m about to go out on the town and I’m all dressed up in a little black dress and heels.

What’s your best asset?
Probably my face – a lot of people say I have a face like a doll, but I like to think it’s my curves.

What’s one thing men should always remember about women?
Men should always know that women will find out everything no matter what! We are secretly private investigators.

What do you look for in a man?
Someone who is funny and loving, as well as humble and down to earth. I don’t like men who are vain and up themselves.

What’s next for you?
I’m definitely planning a lot for my future. I’d like to keep working to become a bikini and lingerie model and hopefully you’ll see me in the spotlight soon. Lots of exciting things to come, world!

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’ve grown up moving around – I went to nine different schools within 10 years. I dropped out in Year 10 to study fashion and moved to Brisbane where I had my first job as a visual merchandiser.

What would people be most surprised to learn about you?
That I’m building a wellness centre in Cronulla, Sydney. We will be opening in 2019 and I’m super excited for this new adventure and to share the journey.

How long have you been modelling?
To be honest, I don’t really consider myself to be a model but I’ve been collaborating with a lot of cool brands in the last year.

 What is your best asset?
My flat stomach and motivating mind – most of the time.

When do you feel sexy?
After I exercise because it makes me feel proud of my body.

What do you look for in a man?
Honesty and Love.

Describe your ideal date?
My perfect date would be in matching PJs and having a sooky Sunday on the couch.

What’s one thing men should always remember about women?
That we are always right!

Where do you see yourself in five years?
My wellness centre is a stepping stone to destination retreat, so in five years I see myself finishing a nutrition degree and also having my first million!

Bentley Stingley https://fhmescapes.com/bentley-stingley/ Fri, 02 Nov 2018 09:00:57 +0000 http://www.maxim.com.au/?p=8392 HOMETOWN: Los Angeles, California, USA
BORN: July 6, 1991
FIVE-WORD SELF-DESCRIPTION: “Romantic, clever, ambitious, empathetic, creative.”
FAVE DRINK: “Don Julio 1942 on the rocks.”
HIDDEN TALENT: “I can make a spot-on goat noise or speak goat, as I like to jokingly refer to it.”
PHOBIAS: “I’m terrified of lizards.”
LIFE MOTTO: “Follow your gut feeling.”
INSTGRAM: @bentleystingley
SNAPCHAT: @Bentleystingley
TWITTER: @bentleystingley

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m originally from Los Angeles, California and multifaceted when it comes to my career. I model, act, run a social media marketing company in South Africa and I’m also licensed medical aesthetician who specialises in adult acne as well as scar revision. I’m currently living between Johannesburg and Cape Town in South Africa.

What would people be most surprised to learn about you?
I’m a huge equestrian enthusiast and trained and broke horses in my teens. I competed in every riding style and love to play a good game of polo.

How was your FHM shoot here in Thailand.
I got to work with such beautiful amazing ladies, as well as the stellar FHM team in a luxury villa, and my one-on-one shoot was very orientated around the water as I am such a water baby. I surf and was a swimmer for years. We mostly shot the wet look.

When do you feel sexy?
When I’m in Lingerie – there’s just something about a nice, classic, classy lingerie set that just makes you feel extremely sexy.

What is your best asset?
My mind – people underestimate my intelligence so I use it to my advantage.

 What’s one thing men should know about women?
Equal rights doesn’t mean that courting and chivalry should go out the door. In my book nice guys don’t finished last, so be gentlemen, be honest, be thoughtful and don’t play games.

Describe your ideal date.
A date planned around something that’s personally thoughtful to me. Learning about my likes and dislikes then creating a date around the things I love – it shows he pays attention and is creative and thoughtful.

What’s next for you?
I have the modelling season in Cape Town, South Africa coming up and I’m also launching an e-commerce store – so, keep your eye out!

TWITTER: @stormiimichelle

Tell us a bit about yourself.
I’m from a small, backwoods town in Texas, USA. I love the outdoors and the water and my favourite accomplishment to date would be being a mother of two. 

Any funny anecdotes you can share about this trip?
Hands down the diversity between the Australian, New Zealand and American accents. On the first day upon arrival, my roommate and I were given a tour of the villa by our photographer (Rocky is a Kiwi) and during the tour he kept pointing out excitedly about “the “dicks” everywhere. Laughing, I voiced my confusion and the photographer explained he was saying, “DECKS”.

What is your best asset?
I get a lot of compliments on my smile and my bronze, tanned skin. Beyond my beauty, I would say most people like my fun, spontaneous approach on life.

What would you do if you weren’t modelling?
I have been modelling for almost 10 years but if I wasn’t I’d be in the medical field.

What do you look for in a man?
Tall, funny, nice teeth, good overall hygiene, steady career, someone who can protect and an all-round, southern, sweet-tea-drinking gentlemen.

What have you learnt about men over the years?
All men aren’t the same – some manipulate better than others.

What is the freakiest thing someone has sent you via social media?
For about five years I had the same guy make multiple accounts, on various social media platforms, trying to convince me to let him suck on my toes every day after a long day’s work.

What would people be most surprised to know about you?
I would rather be on the water, or out hunting, over being in a shopping mall any day.

Anja Tyrrell https://fhmescapes.com/anja-tyrrell/ Mon, 29 Oct 2018 09:00:53 +0000 http://www.maxim.com.au/?p=8387 HOMETOWN: The Patch, Vic
BORN: May 8, 1993
FIVE-WORD SELF-DESCRIPTION: “Intelligent, humorous, uncoordinated, compassionate, accepting.”
HIDDEN TALENT: “Fire twirling – I got to have a go with the girls on this Thailand trip!”
GIRL CRUSH: “I’m a Ruby Rose fan – what girl wouldn’t go there?!”
LIFE MOTTO: “Always be kind and have compassion and grace.”
INSTAGRAM: @anjatyrrell
TWITTER: @Tyrrellanja
FACEBOOK: @Tyrrell.AnjaModel

What would people be most surprised to learn about you?
I don’t drink alcohol and I’m vegan. I care a lot about feeling good on the inside out and I always care a lot about the environment, the planet, leaving as little footprint as possible and working out how I can positively impact the world around me.

When do you feel sexy?
When I’m at home, put on some music and dance around the house – sometimes naked. But I feel like that’s a standard stereotype. So, just dancing in general.

What is your best asset?
Probably my booty. I’m curvy and it’s something people comment on a lot – they say my bum is like a peach.

What’s one thing men should always know about women?
Men need to understand women’s emotions better – we aren’t the same every day. We want to feel loved and safe, and know we can be looked after, but we also need support in letting us be independent.

What do you look for in a man?
I find confidence and drive a really attractive trait – someone who is proud, knowledgeable and knows what they want. Not someone who is arrogant.

What’s the weirdest thing someone has sent you on social media?
The most recent one was a guy from Texas asking me if I wanted to join the Illuminati and become a billionaire.

What’s next for you?
In the next six months my main focus is creating content – I want to build up a strong female audience through my platforms. I have a big message to share around body positivity, mental health and uplifting others around me. In the next five years I want to have my own health and wellness centre and be helping people on their health and wellness journey through meditation and alternative medicine.
