No.

AmpedAsia.com:What was the process for you getting started in the entertainment industry?

Christine Nguyen: I was approached by a photographer who wanted to take my picture when I was a freshman in college. Those pictures were sent into an agency and they contacted me for representation. I signed with them and booked my first job on a McDonald's commercial.

AmpedAsia.com:Have you always wanted to do modeling or acting?

Christine Nguyen: Yes, ever since was in middle school, I had always wanted to be a model from looking at all the glamorous girls in the magazines that my mother always brought home for me.

AmpedAsia.com: I heard you graduated from UT (I am also a longhorn YAY), what kind of girl were you in college and what extracurriculars and groups did you participate in?

Christine Nguyen: Yay! Hook 'em Horns!!! I was pretty studious my first couple of years in college, but then I turned into a wild child. I wasn't really into any extracurricular activities or groups because I worked a lot to put myself through school and didn't have the time.





AmpedAsia.com: What was your major in college?

Christine Nguyen: Communications/Journalism.

AmpedAsia.com: I saw one of your movies, "Ghost in a Teeny Bikini" and also . How was it like shooting those scenes, and was it awkward at all?

Christine Nguyen: "Ghost in a Teeny Bikini" was a blast to shoot. The storyline was campy and funny and I learned a lot from Fred Ray, the director. It was never awkward because everyone is very professional and we're like a family because a lot of us work together quite often.

AmpedAsia.com: How did your parents react to your steamy scenes in the movie?

Christine Nguyen: They haven't seen "Ghost" yet, but they are very conservative, so I am guessing they would be a bit taken aback.

Christine Nguyen: I believe "Bikini Jones" is airing right now and "Get Him To The Greek" opens in theaters June 4th.

AmpedAsia.com: What has been your favorite project and why?

AmpedAsia.com: How do your dating partners react to the movies that you've been in?
