Ursula hails from the nation's capitol and might be the loveliest thing, outside of Amerie, D.C. let pass over its lines. This busy beauty is just getting started, and if things go right, she'll leap past the car show circuit and jump straight into TV. She is a spunky sweetheart ready to give hugs to the homies, but those looks can be deceiving. She's a firecracker, and if you accidentally light that fuse ... We suggest you get to her next HIN appearance and get an up close and personal for yourself before she becomes untouchable.
2NR: From your pictures we can't tell if you're in your early- or late-20s. Ursula Mayes: Who cares how old you are so long as you're hot?
2NR: So how did modeling happen?
UM: I was interning at my aunt's studio. My aunt suggested I model, and I ended up in front of the camera. For most models the idea of standing in front of the camera is about feeling glamorous. I like it because of the artistic value. I consider myself an artist-I paint, draw, practice photography, do my own hair and makeup-so as a model I try to create my own style of poses. When I finally see the pictures it's more of a feeling of "wow, that's cool."
2NR: Playboy's photography is artistic to many. Then again, Hustler's is too.
UM: I wouldn't do anything distasteful. I'd consider things like artistic coffee table books and projects you'd see in fashion magazines. People make such a big deal out of nudity here. In Europe it's all over the place. The more taboo it is, the more people want to see it.
2NR: What are your ambitions?
UM: I want to get more into TV. I just wrapped up a pilot for a potential show. It has little bit of action and it's a staring role. No big celebrities but there are well-known people. If it happens, it'll open the door to a lot of things.
2NR: So, you're going to be in the Lingerie Bowl.
UM: It airs during the Superbowl halftime show. I'm also part of the Leather and Bikini Lace Squad.
2NR: Tell us about becoming Miss HIN.
UM: I was third place in Maxim's Hometown Hotties and HIN invited me to do a show in Hawaii. I went up against thousands of girls and got the top votes. It's the most fun in modeling I've had so far because it's the most rewarding.
2NR: What do you do with your free time?
UM: I love bicycling and reading and anything to do with animals. I've had a ton of pets my entire life. I also do charity work. I used to work as a counselor at a probation house for girls.
2NR: Did you draw on past experience for advice?
UM: I got into a lot of trouble when I was younger.
2NR: Well, aside from murder, what's something you got away with?
UM: I know how to hotwire cars.
2NR: The only other hot chick who knows how to do that is Angelina in Gone in 60 Seconds. Does HIN know this?
UM: Moving on. I have five brothers.
2NR: That's a lot of protection.
UM: This guy spread rumors about me in high school. He said I did some really nasty things with him. I was crying when I bumped into my brother. He went searching for the guy. My brother has a shaved head and stands about 6 feet 2 inches and is over 200 pounds.
2NR: I'm mildly alarmed that I might write something that would cause me some type of injury.
UM: See. You better be careful.
2NR: Nah. I'm fearless. You don't know me. I'm 7 feet 2 inches and 420 pounds.
UM: Like Yao Ming?
2NR: Yeah, except people call me "Nah'Meen." My real name is Jason-come and get me! ...
