Is this the first shoot since having a kid? I did a cover for a shooting magazine and a couple other shooting magazines and also showed up on the cover of some other shooting magazine in France that I had no idea about. Somebody sent me a picture from the airport in France and I said, hey that’s me. That’s cool. What was it like to step back in front of the camera for a glam our shoot? It was really nice. It was invigorating. I have been working really hard since having the baby to get my fitness back in check. It’s easier said than done. It’s a new life I have. I think it is inspiring to other women out there too who are afraid to embrace motherhood. You can…

When these images of Trista appeared in our Dropbox, we knew immediately we had found the perfect LOOK to celebrate Motherhood KANDY style. As we celebrate Hot Moms this month, we also are celebrating Life. And what better way to celebrate Life than with a beautiful woman who is sharing her pregnancy with 450,000 loyal fans. Most men’s magazines will hide the fact that a model is pregnant. And practically every men’s magazine will shy away from publishing a model who is pregnant. Not KANDY. If you have been a long-time reader of KANDY, you know we love to challenge the status quo. A quick trip to Trista’s Instagram account @tristamikail and you’ll see Trista in all her pregnancy majesty. Childbirth is a natural feature of being a woman. We…

Instead of focusing on teams this month, we offer a collection of thoughts on the economics of sports in the US. April is the rare month when all the major US sports leagues collide. NFL draft. NHL and NBA Playoffs. The MLB season is underway. Outside of broadcast television, the thread that connects all the sports leagues is advertising, specifically gambling and big pharma ads. In a moment, I will discuss the NFL draft, but first Kuch Knows the targeting of American consumers, with a propensity to addiction, has reached pandemic levels with gambling and big pharma advertising. Sports networks and leagues are now in bed with gambling sites, inflicting greater consumer pain. For example, ESPN and Penn partnered in a new ESPNbranded gambling site. MSG networks use celebrity athletes…

Choosing a cover girl for our HOT Mom’s issue is alaborioustask. TherearesomanyKANDY Hot Moms! For 2024, we harken back to a rare Kandy double feature - a redhead and artistic images.

Hello Jessica. Welcome back to Kandy. Jessica: It’s good to be back here in Kandy land. Can I say that or is that trademarked? Let’s just say it. It works. I absolutely love that Ron reached out to me and wanted me to shoot again for Kandy magazine. I couldn’t be more excited just to be a part of something I’ve loved from day one. The fact that I am here now just with everything I’ve done. Ron let me have kind of my idea of what’s going on in my life and just let it portray through the pictures that we took today. It’s called Jessica in Charge; a lot of these Kandy girls have done so much, and it is so cool that Ron sees that… wants us…

Tell us about your dog walker business. I started my company Social Canines 3 years ago. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life and bring me so much joy. I wanted to give back and help them have happier and healthier lives. It is pack walks, so I take about 10 dogs out on a 2-hour hike. It is the best job in the world! How many pups can you walk at once? Most I’ve walked was 15 by myself. What is the best advice you can give to fellow dog owners? It’s so important to build trust and a friendship between you and your dog. They are always watching you and learning from your behavior and the energy you give off. If you lead them confidently, instead of…

I: Laurie, you styled the shoot and chose the photos. Share with our readers your initial input. Laurie: “I’m still hot!!!” Hahaha… That was my initial thought. Like wow! Zero editing and I still got it. I guess after having two kids and being locked away because of the state of the world for 2 years, I didn’t know if I’d ever model again. And I certainly didn’t feel hot anymore in my sweats and mask. But this gave me the confidence to realize I can keep doing this job that I love so much. It’s really been a self-esteem boost seeing these photos! I: At first, I wasn't excited about the choice of the orange bikini. I mean, it is an orange bikini, but did you ever put sizzle…
