Riggo's Rag speaks with Top Model Semi-Finalist Brittany Britto

Riggo’s Rag had the recent privilege of interviewing Top Model and Miss Maryland 2011 semi-finalist Brittany Britto. Brittany has also been featured on the Campus Girls 2009 calendar as Miss October. Brittany is nothing short of a world traveler, having lived on a few different continents throughout her first 22 years of life. Ms. Britto is not only a model, but she’s a true Patriots fan. We here at Riggo’s Rag decided to pick her brain about her modeling career, writing and of course the game later today. Enjoy.

RR- How’d you get into modeling? From what I’ve seen you’re into a few other fields of work. What sparked your interest in writing?

Britto's first Redskins encounter was Sheriff Gon' Getcha himself

BB- I started modeling around the age of 4 in Providence, where I was born, and later in Boston. I was scouted in a mall and started modeling with an agency there for a couple of years. I was also fortunate to do a lot of moving around while I was young, and got to go overseas for high school for my father’s job, so I was able to pursue modeling in high school by doing different fashion shows, working with smaller agencies while in Hong Kong, which was a lot of fun. I came back here to the states for college to attend University of Maryland. I’d say that’s when I really started taking modeling more serious here in the district, doing different promo jobs and eventually working with different photographers and fashion shows. Ironically, my very first job that I ever got was working promo for the Redskins at a nightclub. Clinton Portis was the first celebrity I met in DC. I was like 18 and super intimidated, and all I could drink was Redbull. So funny!
