Oh boy. Where do we start? How do we introduce an international modeling sensation with an incredible career to date? Here are just some of the highlights from her stellar resume...Toyo Brand Ambassador, Top Gear Magazine Feature, Miss World Cup Asia, Miss Japan GT Queen, Miss Tourism Malaysia...and much much more!

Meet Leng Yein from Malaysia...signed & managed exclusively here in North America by TunerPlayground. Leng visited the U.S. for the first time ever last month and modeled at SEMA, shot with DSPORT Magazine, and was an Official Spokesmodel for the inaugural North American Festival of Speed at the Las Vegas Motor Speedway. She also hosted several parties in Las Vegas, Los Angeles, and San Francisco, as well as shot with other companies and publications...all within a 10 day period. Crazy awesome right? Well we're afraid that these things only begin to describe Leng and just how wonderful she is. To learn more, simply scroll down.

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

LY: I was 17 when my state's Pageant Organizer spotted me while I was having breakfast. She walked over to my table and told me that I had what it takes to be a beauty queen and asked me to join Miss Pahang/Malaysia World Pageant. I did. And I won!

TP: That's great. Tell us, how do you feel about signing exclusively with us? What were some of the important factors that led to your decision?

LY: I was thrilled! I love traveling the world. I love the fact that you guys signed me because of what I offer and what I'm good at. I knew that TunerPlayground manages some of the top models in the United States and being signed was like, "Hey! I am good enough too!" What you guys offer is too amazing to resist! If I had turned the offer down then I would be CRAZY! I was totally IN! TunerPlayground only wants the best...so I hope I fit the description! Hehe. ^_^

TP: Well thank you for the kind words, and yes of course you do! So do you consider yourself beautiful? What do you think is your greatest asset? What makes you unique?

LY: Everyone is beautiful in their own way. My greatest asset would be my personality. A lot of girls can be beautiful, but their attitude can suck. I strive to be perfect and to be loved by everyone. I know this may sound unrealistic, but I certainly do try my best! I hate to accept failure, it's not who I am. I try to make others feel good. My motto is "love and be loved!"

TP: That's wonderful. So tell us, who is your favorite model or celebrity of all time?

LY: Angelina Jolie. I would love to do a Tomb Raider shoot, an S&M shoot, and a Victoria's Secret style shoot with her. Heck, anything that is sexy would do it for me. Awwww yeah! Wink. ^_^

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.

LY: All the time! Oops wait, hahaha. Let's just say that I have my ways... ^_^

TP: Haha. Sure. So what was the first major event you ever modeled at? What made it memorable?

LY: I would have to say that it was when I won my first beauty pageant. I was so excited! My first major TV promo was for ASTRO in Malaysia. My first overseas assignment was in Taiwan. But my most memorable moment? Definitely visiting you guys in the United States! Modeling in America has definitely been my dream, and working for you guys and doing all of these amazing assignments with all the traveling has been SO GREAT! I'm so happy. I love TunerPlayground! ^_^

TP: Aww. We love you right back! Hehe. So what are your hobbies? Any hidden talents you'd like to share with the world?

LY: Traveling is definitely my biggest hobby! Oh and shopping! Traveling and shopping to me are like buy one get one free deals. They just go together. Hehe. Hidden talents? Hmm. I'm a professional dancer, a performing pianist, a bathroom singer, and my cooking will send you STRAIGHT INTO the hospital. Hahaha! ^_^

TP: LOL. This is why we always ate out when you visited huh? What is your astrological sign? Do you believe in horoscopes?

LY: Haha yes! Oh and yes to the question too! ^_^ I'm a typical ARIES. I like being FIRST, I'm HOT, DYNAMIC, IMPULSIVE, PASSIONATE, AGGRESSIVE...I can go on but I'll stop now.

TP: Haha. So do you have any weird habits that no one else knows about?

LY: I love checking out other girls. ^_^

TP: What a coincidence, us too! So what does a typical day for you look like?

LY: Breakfast, Facebook, manage my restaurant, Facebook, photoshoots, lunch, Facebook. Do you notice a pattern yet? I like to eat (like 4-5 times a day) and I love Facebook (all day)! Haha. Oh and if I'm traveling then shopping is always mixed in there somewhere. ^_^

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

LY: I can't! =( I suck at stick. Wait...that sounds funny. Hahaha. Racing? Hell yeah! Someone teach me. I want to go fast! See? I'm such an ARIES!

TP: We'll have to take you to a track when you come back then. Tell us, does size matter for you? You know we're talking about car engines of course. Haha.

LY: Hmmm. Sometimes yes. Most days I like a smooth and comfortable ride. But there are those other days...hahaha! ^_^

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

LY: You already have! It's all photos of me. From bikini shots to casual...I'm always taking and posting photos on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

TP: What item of clothing or accessory makes you feel the sexiest?

LY: Definitely heels first. Sexy heels always set the tone. And then maybe something tight that hugs me right...

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

LY: What's surprised me are the people who will do anything to get ahead, regardless of manners, self discipline, or ethics. But hey, that exists everywhere in life, so I just look past it. Most embarrassing? No one noticed actually, I was too fast. Hahaha. It's okay that I'm fast right? I'm not a guy! ^_^

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

LY: Charm. And a nice smile. Oh and I like a man with some chub. No thin guys! I like to hug okay? Hahaha. A guy has to be able to talk to me. He has to be witty and funny, as well as know how to listen. Wait, are you taking notes? Haha! ^_^

TP: Yes! Haha. So how do you feel about pick-up lines? What was the best line that was used on you? Did it work?

LY: Hmm. I get lame ones a lot. And they usually just make me laugh. Hahaha!

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

LY: For me it's all about if I'm into the guy. If I like him a lot, then I'm ALWAYS in the mood. ^_^ As for my turn ons? I don't want to make it TOO EASY now.

TP: What do you wear to bed?

LY: Nothing. Since it all ends up on the floor anyways right? Hahaha. Just kidding, well okay not really. It is pretty true most of the time. Except when I dress up in bed. HAHAHA! ^_^

TP: LOL. Oh wow. So on a scale from 1 to 10, how wild are you in the bedroom?

LY: I don't see my number listed in there. GIGGLE!

TP: Haha. What's your favorite position?

LY: Definitely DOGGY! It's all about depth and skills baby. This pussycat doesn't meow, she goes rawwrrr. Hahaha. Okay I'll stop now! ^_^

TP: Tell us, what is something no one else knows about you that you are willing to let us in on first?

LY: I like a man who's in control. On and off my bed. Hahaha. Omg. I'm so bad. ^_^

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

LY: Yes! Because I was smart and nice, but hard to get at the same time. *evil laugh*

TP: If you could have one superpower, what would it be and why?

LY: I want to be a Genie! But I would want to rub myself and then make my wishes come true. I would give myself unlimited wishes. ^_^

TP: Haha. Yikes. Tell us, what do you think about social networking sites and how they have affected models these days?

LY: I think social networking sites are GREAT! They're super useful when it comes to brand building and marketing. Find me on Facebook (24-7-365 hahaha): www.facebook.com/lengyein, Twitter: @lengyein and Instagram: lengyein

TP: Right on. So what are five things you never leave the house without?

LY: My baby dinosaur and bee bee. Money. Cell phone. Credit card. Oh and clothes ON. Hahahaha. ^_^

TP: Where can your fans expect to find you in 2012? How about with us?

LY: I'll be in Hong Kong, Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Thailand, and of course with you guys in the U.S. whenever I'm needed!

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

LY: Always be a GOOD FRIEND. And then, you will have many good friends in return. ^_^ I am NOT special, at least not compared to anyone who is reading this. I am just a normal girl who loves her life and takes life as it comes. Life is short. Live it the way you want...colorful, bright, happy, and meaningful. Thank you to everyone for taking the time to read my story. I think of all of you as my friends...I exist because of your smiles, your love, your concern, your support, and your trust. I owe so much to everyone...thank you for helping me to se the world, to meet great people, and to learn new things.

Love,

Leng Yein XOXO
