Model: Vivienne Rose

Vivienne Rose is a 9 year old print and runway model and actress who is based half-time in SF and LA. 2021 is her come out year but she has hit the industry by storm. This year she is slated to appear in over 10+ editorials, multiple print and social media advertisements, walk four runway shows at NYFW and one internationally, is a finalist for a modeling competition in July, and many more exciting projects! Vivienne’s favorite type of work is editorial or fashion modeling because she loves getting into character and also helping designers and products showcase their designs. Vivi also loves voiceovers and one of her dreams is to do an anime voiceover. Outside of modeling and acting, Vivienne’s hobbies are learning new languages (Spanish, Japanese, and coding), digital creations, cosplay, and skiing. She is currently working on a mobile game that she hopes to release later this year.

When did you first start modeling? And what made you want to try it out?

I did a few shoots and a music video when I was three, but I really got into modeling professionally this February. I love doing cosplay at home so I felt like modeling and acting would be a lot of fun. After my first few shoots, I was hooked!

What has been your favorite thing you’ve done so far?

This one is a hard one to answer because each photographer is different and it is fun working with their different styles. My favorite might be one of my first shoots with Sagaj and Love Baby J Couture because we laughed a lot and the dresses were beautiful! We had a limited time to shoot four styles, but we got it done.

If you could choose one job in modeling or acting to do right now, what would it be?

I would love to do a voiceover for a feature film or an anime.

Do you have a model or actor that you’d like to work with someday?

I would be honored to do a shoot with the beautiful model Christina Nadin (@christinanadin). I love how naturally beautiful she is.

What do you like most about being part of this industry?

I love meeting different photographers and designers to make their visions come to life. What I love the most though is when I get to meet and hang out with other kids on a set.

What’s your favorite tv show?

My favorite TV show right now is Power Rangers Super Ninja Steel.

We’ve heard you’re learning multiple languages. What’s your favorite thing to say in Japanese and Spanish?

My favorite Japanese word is arigatou gozaimashita (thank you) and my favorite Spanish word is manzana (apple). 

If you could go anywhere right now, where would you go?

I love traveling to many different places, and I have been to 11 countries so far! If I could go anywhere right now it would be Japan. I love their food, fashion, anime, and technology.

What do you think you’ll be doing in 5 years?

I would love to be a YouTuber showing my digital creations and animations. I also want to become CEO of my own company.
