Sheneka Adams: Red-Carpet Treatment

We recently found out that Sheneka Adams has ambitions of being a red-carpet reporter, so we put King's 2011 Web Girl of the Year through some extensive red carpet training. Ms. Adams, we love you.

XXL: Sheneka, how are you?

Sheneka Adams: I’ve been blogging, lot of photo shoots, working on a book, I’m just busy. I’m just trying to take over the world. I’m working on a book. I have a few offers on the table for a reality show.

XXL: We understand that you want to explore being a red-carpet reporter and interviewer?

Adams: Yes. I haven’t actually done that before, not the red carpet thing. But it’s something I think I can do. The reason why I want to wanted to do this is I watch the red carpet shows – the pre-shows a lot – and I always feel like this is something I can do.

XXL: Oh really? We here at XXL have come up with red carpet prep course for you. Are you game?

Adams: Yeah, I’m ready.

XXL: What are the keys to being a good red carpet interviewer?

Adams: You definitely gotta have confidence in yourself. You can’t be nervous. You can’t be shy. You kind of just have to go for it and be strong. So, definitely confidence.

XXL: Who would you most like to interview on the red carpet if given the opportunity?

Adams: Beyonce . . . I love her. (Laughing). I know I might seem obsessed, but I love her and if I got the opportunity to interview her, that’d make my world.

XXL: What would you ask her?

Adams: How does it feel to be you? Simple questions like what are you wearing and what do you have coming up next? What’s life like? Things like that.

XXL: Who on the red carpet do you think is the flyest dresser?

Adams: Male – I’d have to say Kanye West. His style. When I see him dress, I don’t necessarily see him do what everyone else does. I like when people come with stuff out the box. Female – I’d say Lada Gaga. I like her style just because it’s so different. She’s always fly, no matter whatever she does.

XXL: Who would make you most nervous to interview?

Adams: To be honest, I would be most nervous interviewing Beyonce just because I like her so much. Not that I would be intimidated, I would just be a little nervous. She’s such a superstar and she’s such a woman. I would freak out. I think she would probably make me the most nervous.

XXL: Do you have a celebrity crush out there that would definitely make you nervous?

Adams: I tend to be comfortable around people I like, so no, nobody would make me nervous.

XXL: An interview with Sheneka Adams would be incomplete without asking on behalf of the fellas – Are you single?

Adams: Yes, I’m single.

XXL: Ideally, what do you look for in a dude?

Adams: The ideal things for me are conversation. A lot of guys – not all, but some – tend to want to get to know your name and then get into your underwear. Like, where’s the rest of the conversation? You don’t want to get to know me, my life story? How you know I ain’t got Chlamydia? You ain’t even asking me questions. I need someone to just be like, “Who are you, where are you from, what do you like, what do you not like, what do you like to eat, your favorite color?" I like to have conversation and if you can’t have conversation, it’s not going to work.

XXL: So, we know good conversation is one of your turn-ons. What are the rest?

Adams: I definitely like a guy with a great smile. I don’t want somebody to smile and it looks like he went to work with a jackhammer to his teeth. Hygiene is definitely a must. I don’t care if you wear the same shirt three days in a row . . . as long as you smell good, I don’t care. It might sound crazy, but the first thing I look at in a guy is their shoes. If their shoes are dirty, then that says a lot about you. Shoes gotta be clean.

XXL: Any dudes who read this and then meet you are going to have clean shoes now.

Adams: They better or else they’re not going to get no play. Another turn-off for me is I don’t like guys who brag. Bragging about the chicks they slept with and how much money they got and how many cars . . . that’s just like stupid. I don’t care. Keep all that. I also don’t like guys who act like females, meaning they whine a lot, bitch a lot, just like drama queens. I don’t like guys who aren’t into their families as well. Like how are you going to tell me you’re into me, but you don’t even talk to your kids or family?

XXL: What can a dude do to spice things up with you in the bedroom?

Adams: I’m the type of person who won’t have any limits to what I will or won’t do. But I do like a guy who’s into kinky things. Tie me up, choke, slap me around, curse me out. I know it sounds weird, but hey, that’s what I like. Maybe, let’s roleplay, pour chocolate on each other and lick it off, hot wax, honey.

XXL: You like to get creative.

Adams: Yeah, I don’t like the same old, Ok lay down, open your legs, pump, pump, pump and go to sleep. That’s boring. I need some excitement, especially if you’re going to be with someone for a while.
