When one says the words, “Brazilian Model”, most automatically know that words such as “hot” or “sexy” immediately follow. Well we can add a few more like “beautiful, stunning and ooolala” when referring to this babe from Brazil. Priscilla Ricart started modeling at the early age of 13 in Rio De Janeiro.
“I am originally from a city called Niterói which is located in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. I always wanted to be a model since my earliest childhood and took acting & modeling classes. When I was 11 years old I saw an ad in a magazine about a big agency in Rio – 40graus models, owned by Sergio Mattos. I went to their workshop but was to young. He asked me to come back in two years so I did and that’s how it started.”
