Yikes! It's hard to believe that 2012 is here already. This marks the fourth consecutive year since we launched our little website and we have to say, time sure does fly! So on behalf of everyone here at TunerPlayground we'd like to thank all of our loyal fans, our dear friends, and our industry partners for all of the support in helping to make what we strive to do, a success. But enough with the sappy talk, you're on this page for an important reason...our newest exclusively-signed & managed spokesmodel: Aria Price. She's funny, sweet, and has an incredible body. Don't believe us? Scroll down for over fifty never-before-seen photos along with an in-depth interview and you're sure to see for yourself.

Happy New Year! Love, TunerPlayground.

TP: So Aria, we have to ask. How did you get into modeling? Were you discovered?

AP: I'm actually a shy person, so I never thought modeling would be something that I'd be good at, but my good friend Keith Selle convinced me to give it a try and now I love it! Keith definitely discovered me, to say the least. ^_^

TP: That's great! He certainly has an eye for talent. Tell us, how do you feel about signing exclusively with us? What were some of the important factors that led to your decision?

AP: I'm super excited! It's awesome to be managed by a company that's known for representing some of the most gorgeous girls in the industry. I've actually been a fan of TunerPlayground for a while now, so it was a pretty easy decision for me. Are you glad to have me?

TP: Of course! Tell us, do you consider yourself beautiful? What do you think is your greatest asset? What makes you unique?

AP: I do. I believe everybody is beautiful in their own way, even if they don't realize it. Beauty can get attention, but a beautiful personality is what grabs the heart. I think my best physical asset would be my smile, I'm always smiling. What makes me unique is definitely my mentality. It feels so strange to call myself a model because I have many other ambitions as well.

TP: That's wonderful, and we certainly do love your smile. So who is your favorite model or celebrity of all time?

AP: Definitely Adriana Lima, she is perfection. I would do any photoshoot with her, but my fantasy shoot would probably be Victoria's Secret inspired with lots of lace and lot's of feathers, maybe like a pillow fight in our underwear, haha. Something fun and sexy! ^_^

TP: That would be hot! Tell us, have you ever used your looks to take advantage of someone? Was it one of our staff? You can tell us. Haha.

AP: Hahahaha! What? Never! Well okay, maybe...

TP: Haha. So that's how you got this feature...just kidding! What was the first major event you ever modeled at? What made it memorable?

AP: My first major event was Hot Import Nights Los Angeles 2011. Beautiful girls and beautiful cars everywhere! What's better than that, right? It was so much fun and everyone was so friendly. I had never done anything like that before, it was great and I'm looking forward to doing it again very soon.

TP: What are some of your hobbies? Any hidden talents you'd like to share with the world?

AP: I have lot's of hobbies. I'm one of those people that has to stay busy. I play soccer, play piano, guitar, violin and dance ballet. I also play a lot of video games, hehe! Oh and I like baking and reading. ^_^

TP: What is your astrological sign? Do you believe in horoscopes?

AP: I'm a Cancer. And yes, I don't read my horoscope every day but I most definitely believe we're much more connected to each other than we realize.

TP: Do you have any weird habits that no one else knows about?

AP: Haha, I suppose. I'm a night owl, so usually by the time I normally go to bed the sun is already starting to come up and I've already eaten breakfast.

TP: Interesting. What does a typical day for you look like?

AP: Typically I wake up, get some Starbucks, read the New York Times, go to school, get lunch with a friend, head to work, come home, eat dinner, do homework, do some blogging, then read until I fall asleep. ^_^ I always feel most comfortable at home, so when I want to be alone that's where I'll most likely be - preferably taking a long hot relaxing bath. If I'm not there, you can find me at a coffee shop. I think I drink too much coffee, haha.

TP: Can you handle a stick? Have you ever thought about getting into racing?

AP: I can! Haha, that's actually how I met one of my ex-boyfriends. I don't think I could ever get into racing professionally, it's so dangerous! I'll stick to the racing video games. ^_^

TP: Haha. Not a bad idea. Tell us, does size matter for you? You know we're talking about car engines of course. Haha.

AP: If you know how to drive, then the size of the engine shouldn't matter, right?! It's not what you have, it's what you do with it! Hehe.

TP: Haha. So if we looked through your cell phone, what kinds of juicy things would we find on there?

AP: Pictures of me goofing off at work, nice cars, and my cat. Haha. ^_^ Random, but not so juicy...sorry!

TP: It's okay. Tell us, what item of clothing or accessory makes you feel the sexiest?

AP: I have a slight obsession with lingerie. I love wearing something sexy underneath my everyday clothes, even though nobody else sees it throughout the day. Well...most days anyway. Hehe! ^_^

TP: Oh my. What has surprised you the most about modeling? Any embarrassing moments?

AP: How supportive everybody is! It's refreshingly surprising. My most memorable moment would be when I went to my first event and people asked me for my autograph, it was a pretty awesome feeling. Haha, most embarrassing was probably my first photo shoot. It was with Keith and I seriously had no idea what I was doing, I was so nervous!! He helped me through it though and we laughed about it later.

TP: Haha. So what do you look for in a guy? What would he have to do to get your attention and to keep you interested?

AP: Intelligence is the sexiest thing to me. I'm a sucker for nerds. Otherwise I'll get bored and annoyed. A good sense of humor, manners and ambition are also a must! Being a good cook and athletic are definitely bonuses.

TP: Right on. How do you feel about pick-up lines? What was the best line that was used on you? Did it work?

AP: Haha, I think they're funny but usually ineffective. A guy that uses them is instantly put in the "friend zone" with me. I have yet to hear one that works. My motto is, just be honest and upfront.

TP: What gets you in the mood? What are some of your turn-ons?

AP: Nice cologne and red wine. Hehe. I love it when guys wear sweaters too. I appreciate a guy that can show me he wants me, but doesn't need me. Clingy guys are a HUGE turn off! ^_^

TP: Typical. Haha. So what do you wear to bed?

AP: Nothing but Victoria's Secret. Hehe.

TP: On a scale from 1 to 10, how wild are you in the bedroom?

AP: It depends. Most days, 10. Sometimes 11. ^_^

TP: Haha. What's your favorite position?

AP: When I have sex, a guy needs to be able to make every position my favorite. Hehe!

TP: Challenge accepted! Haha. Just kidding! Tell us, what is something no one else knows about you that you are willing to let us in on first?

AP: Hahaha. You guys are so silly. Umm. Hmm. I actually hate peanut butter. I wish I didn't though.

TP: Haha. It's okay. Were you popular in high school? If so, why do you think that was?

AP: Not really. I knew a lot of people, but my close friends were always at different schools. Lame huh?

TP: Not at all. So, if you could have one superpower, what would it be and why?

AP: I would want the power to control time. Then I could do anything!

TP: What do you think about social networking sites and how they have affected models these days?

AP: I use Facebook and Twitter! I think they're great. Social networking sites are a really awesome way to connect, open doors, and stay in touch with people who can support you and grow with you.

TP: Do your friends have any funny nicknames for you? If so, tell us about them and what they mean.

AP: My friend's dad used to call me "Scout" because I'm such a tomboy at heart. It's from "To Kill A Mockingbird."

TP: Haha. That's cute. We're sure that everyone has probably read that book in school. So what are five things you never leave the house without?

AP: Purse. Sunglasses. Wallet. Keys. And clothes of course! ^_^

TP: Where can your fans find you online?

AP: For now: Twitter.com/AriaPrice and Facebook.com/AriaPrice

www.AriaPrice.com is coming soon! ^_^

TP: Do you like to travel? Where have you been that you absolutely loved? Where would you like to go some day?

AP: I love traveling! I haven't done a ton of it, but I absolutely love Hawaii, or anywhere with a beach really. I want to travel the world, I think my most desired destination right now would probably be the Maldives. I love being in the sun with my swimsuit on. Hehe.

TP: Let's do it! Where can your fans expect to find you in 2012? How about with us?

AP: Omg. Yes! I'll be wherever you guys are of course. Otherwise I'd miss you guys too much. ^_^

TP: Aww. Sounds good. It's time that we wrap up. Any last words?

AP: If you get a chance, take it, and if it changes your life, let it. Thank you to all of my friends, family and supporters, especially Keith Selle and Mannie Kalikwest, you guys are amazing! And last but not least, thank you to the staff at TunerPlayground for managing me and for giving me the incredible opportunity to be the featured model this month! It's been a pleasure. I'm so excited about 2012!

Much love,

Aria Price XOXO
