Thank you, it’s great and I’m really happy with it I’ve dreamt about featuring in MAXIM Australia for years now and I’m proud to finally be part of the team My next goal is to one day be on the cover! Tell us a bit about this photo shoot I’ve travelled to St Petersburg before, but I was there for a week to this photo shoot So, I had time to see the city, its beauty and architecture I loved everything about this shoot, but above all I liked the interesting location and wardrobe from some famous brands I’m very pleased with the result and with the whole team How long have you been modelling? I only started modelling, at a serious level, a year ago Over time you realise that opportunities are very limited in my city, Odessa So, now I get great pleasure from travelling to different cities and countries You’re wearing some high-end branded Agent Provocateur gear in this shoot They recently published some photos of you, right? Yes It’s a small step forward for me and it was a very nice surprise when it happened What is your best asset? Maybe my natural beauty and my eyes When you’re not posing for MAXIM magazine what you do? I try to spend time with my family and read books I also like being alone and having my own time MAXI M.COM.AU “OVER TIME YOU REALISE THAT OPPORTUNITIES ARE VERY LIMITED.” Tell us a bit more about yourself I’m a very modest and closed person To get to know me better, you need to spend more time with me but also be an open-mined and kind person What would people be most surprised to know about you? That I don’t have a boyfriend When you feel confident and sexy? When I have a boyfriend! A woman always blooms next to her man What you look for in a man? A man must be kind and honest Appearance, intelligence and humor are also important to me Would you ever date one of your social media followers? Never! But, after being published in MAXIM, they will no doubt write to me inviting me on a trip or something What’s been the craziest night out you’ve ever had? I haven’t had it yet I think it will be my wedding night when I eventually get married one day What’s next on the horizon for you? I plan to travel a lot for work I want to get the cover of a fashion magazine and, of course, MAXIM It’s my goal PREVIOUS SPREAD: SWIMWEAR, LUNA MOON THIS PAGE: BIKINI, F#CKING SPECIAL OPPOSITE PAGE: BIKINI, AGENT PROVOCATEUR SWIMWEAR, AGENT PROVOCATEUR MAXI M.COM.AU WOMAN OF THE WORLD “I’VE DREAMT ABOUT FEATURING IN MAXIM AUSTRALIA FOR YEARS NOW AND I’M PROUD TO FINALLY BE PART OF THE TEAM.” THIS PAGE: BIKINI WITH LONG SLEEVES, LUNA MOON OPPOSITE PAGE: BIKINI, AGENT PROVOCATEUR 8 MAXI M.COM.AU MAXI M.COM.AU WOMAN OF THE WORLD Status Update FULL NAME: Lera Mihailina BORN: October 20, 1995 HOMETOWN: Odessa, Ukraine FIVE WORD SELFDESCRIPTION: “Magic, fun, sexy, daredevil, elegant.” HIDDEN TALENT: “I can swear a lot LOL.” WORST HABIT: “I often forget things I’ve promised.” PHOBIA: “I’m afraid of spiders.” LIFE MOTTO: “Nothing is impossible when you believe.” INSTAGRAM: @leramihailina THIS PAGE: ONE-PIECE, AGENT PROVOCATEUR OPPOSITE PAGE: BIKINI, LUNA MOON STYLING: KIRILL AKIMOV (INSTAGRAM @STYLEKIRILLAKIMOV) MAKE-UP: ELENA BOGUCHARSKAYA (INSTAGRAM @LENABOGUCHARSKAYA); YACHTS BY: ANYSHIPS (ANYSHIPS.COM / INSTAGRAM @ANYSHIPSCOM) MAXI M.COM.AU “TO GET TO KNOW ME BETTER, YOU NEED TO SPEND MORE TIME WITH A9 6IH 5@GC 69 5B CD9Bʔ MINED AND KIND PERSON.” MAXI M.COM.AU R E L AT I O N S H I P S NEW WAYS TO DATE IN 2019 BY ANDI LEW Wellness and dating expert, li estyle coach and bestselling author A shares some tips on how you can have more love and connectedness in your life — with a healthy dose of flirt — in today’s society… MAXI M.COM.AU I’m not your everyday Cupid I’m a Cancerian For those who are fans of astrology, this means that the star sign Cancer is known to have traits that revolve around love and romance We are natural nurturers, ruled by the moon and obsessed with love Add to this mix — a love songs and dedications show on KIIS FM I hosted the Melbourne radio show before deep-voiced, sultry Richard Mercer took over Callers would ring in requesting love songs for their loved ones and they’d introduce it with a dedication I remember the time we had a pre chosen song list, but one late night caller didn’t mind which song we played So, I let them go live to air as they wanted to send a heartfelt message to their partner who was in a coma I didn’t know this until I asked, “What would you like to say to your girlfriend?” He announced that he wished he could be there and told us of the coma The song I had no control over kicked in and played — Ronan Keating’s “When You Say Nothing At All” There was an awkward silence, as I recall, hoping nobody realised for the next three and a half minutes Nonetheless, it was a beautiful way of courting someone and our expectations in romance and surprises keep escalating as we are addicted to getting our hearts racing Then I started pairing up couples in a blind-match-style dating game show called Shopping For Love, which aired nationally on Channel Nine You may even remember I was the original Ultra Tune girl as the show was sponsored by them We ran around trying to impress a potential date and getting to know them by having five minutes to rummage through their home and spending 15 minutes buying gifts to win over their potential match! Crazy right? Yes, I’ve seen it all! Over the last 15 years, singles have wanted to find new ways to meet their match We had the rise of “speed dating”, which then transcended into “online dating” and we got even faster when around four years ago dating apps began We went from fast to faster to #swipelife and heck, we could “clock it” in the game of love from the comfort of our own lounge What are the bonuses from finding a date on a dating app? Well, apart from saving you a whole bunch of time, you’re saving a lot of money because it removes the need to have to court and win over your new mate by sending flowers to their work You’re probably saving a bunch of money on that first meeting at the bar where you buy numerous cocktails and risk never getting that phone number or follow up on one-on-one time You move straight to second base on a dating app because your first meeting is basically a date And it’s a blind date! Let’s go back to how much time you’re now wanting to bank You are busy living your best life with a laptop lifestyle, or you’re holding down a job and a family, or just a job with demands and finding time to go to the gym is a challenge You MAXI M.COM.AU R E L AT I O N S H I P S don’t have time for much else, right? And most of us want it all — yesterday! So, finding your Tinderella on an app has advantages but now there is a myriad of dating apps to choose from Tinder really paved the way for the others — it was somewhat a pioneer of the “play mate” world Then we had Plenty of Fish, Bumble, Happn, Hinge and clusters more popping up everywhere When I started researching apps, it came about as a newly divorced single mother In America apparently it’s called a SMILF with their new movie release’s namesake! A girlfriend had come over for “Friyay wine time”, and a little swipe party, as she showed me how to navigate my way through the world on Digital Dating as we now know it It was daunting at first but she’d met her boyfriend on Tinder and four years later they’re still together I soon learned that there were others like me who had no idea how to court and connect You’d have to be a comedian or writer to turn text messages into dates and who was to teach us all how to weed out the weirdos? Are they fake profiles or just socially awkward? Well, judging someone based on a photo alone is pretty awkward You’re essentially putting yourself on the “Singles Shelf ” and on the market It really is a market! We thought that because we were being judged on the quality of our selfie that this is all we had to offer and we forgot what else we had to offer As I went undercover to research my book #instalovers, I soon learnt that we wanted to court from our phones but it didn’t come with a book of rules and “netiquette” So, I created one In my four years of art imitates life, or life imitates art, I found that when I’d reveal to some I was merely researching for a book, they’d reply, “Haha, that’s a great line I’m going to use that!” I’d reply, “But, I really am!” Some would ask if we could date so that they could be in the book! I made many friends, fell in love at one point and even counselled a couple The point is, we moved from being completely and literally lost in ourselves and that transcended into how we behaved on apps But how we present is what we attract and in 2019 some hectic planetary activity happened and we started waking up The world is woke! Have you noticed the shifts in moving from pure hook-ups into us all wanting more meaning in our connections? The selfie is so 2018 Now, we want people to notice us for who we really are, too So, here are my top ways to court and date for 2019: ● Use apps that allow you to adjust your preferences They’ll let you put in a location or even height, whether you drink or smoke, want kids or already have kids and even what you’re looking for: relationship, dating or something casual This way you’re both up front before you begin a flirty chat! MAXI M.COM.AU ● Slide into someone’s DM on Instagram The direct message option is always worth a shot Instagram has been known to be the unspoken date place F\bPN[T\\[NxYVXV[T`]_RRyN[QYVXR a few photos (no more than three or you’ll come across like a stalker) and notifications will alert the person — if they’re interested they might even slide into your DMs! ● Pick up the phone and video call If you have the number of the person you’re into, send a quick text to ask if they’re up for a call or video chat Some girls like to make sure they’re wearing make-up to let you see them at their finest, but this is an awesome way to stay connected and get to know someone Often we lose tonality or body language via text ● Have a networking party Invite a bunch of friends or colleagues and allow them to bring someone to your gathering and make courting become to by-product of networking Some apps like Bumble are even updating their platforms to have Bumble Bizz where you can business with someone by matching on professional offerings and it allows you to be on the app without stigma Then, before you know it, you’re also on #teamflirt and much more relaxed ● Don’t be desperate Have a purpose greater than yourself so that when someone shows interest, you’re still on your own path and not waiting for the three dots of a reply Having said that, make sure you always reply within a day If we wanted to get a message answered longer; we’d send a letter by snail mail! Reply with keen interest and keep the conversation going by asking a question ● Create dates where you can establish more of a respectful connection, like doing an activity It’s not about always going out for drinks Sometimes women like hikes, adventures and even group dates where there’s less pressure ● Try to use emojis within your message at the end or beginning of the text It highlights emotion so that your intentions aren’t misconstrued ● Apply for a reality TV show! There are new ones coming out almost every season now We are obsessed with finding love and watching other people find love, so why not try your hand at some healthy fun by putting yourself in your “divine discomfort zone” ● Play it SAFE If you choose to “get it on” and share your sacred space with someone, make sure you’re protected and prepared A recent Australian study reported 37% of us are having unprotected sex That’s a lot of near misses! It’s also why I partnered with Moments condoms ■ ABOUT ANDI As a certified wellness and dating expert, lifestyle coach and bestselling author, Andi Lew appears on several TV shows, both in Australia and in the United States of America, helping one and all with her handy relationship and professional advice Stay connected with Andi via her Instagram @andi.lew #INSTALOVERS – DIGITAL DATING, DM DISASTERS AND LOVE STORIES by Andi Lew is out now, rrp$27.99, available at andilew.com and book stores across Australia BY VA N E S S A D E L A R A ccording to a boo psychologist, Dr Lemiller from Th Institute, conserv primarily fantasise about the stuff that exists outside of ma — such as orgies, wife-swapp voyeurism You know, everyt that is at odds with their fami Democrats, however, fantasi masochism and the submissi power-plays executed in BD This research, from The Institute, certainly doesn’t mi personal experiences In Aust the UK particularly, conservatives seem to litter the BDSM scene, which I have been a large part of In their day-to-day normal lives, conservatives may seem more sexually repressed but when the sun goes down… boy-oh-boy! So, when it comes to politics and sex — who is better to screw? I would love to give my personal opinion but I’m not that brave Instead, I’ve conveniently turned to scientific studies and research to find the answers According to three recent studies carried out by The Journal of Public Economics, right-wing pollies are considered more physically attractive in Australia, Europe and the US Apparently “attractiveness” helps with wrangling votes and is an obvious advantage when trying to win an election We’re guessing Tony Abbott’s budgie MAXI M.COM.AU LEFT politically conservative are much happier with their sex lives The survey reveals that conservatives have more sex, more sexual confidence and sext more per week compared to Democrats Over the years research has revealed that left-wing folk find it harder to be happier — they have a lot of compassion and see the world as unfair On the flipside, conservatives — with all their natural beauty and privilege (insert sarcasm here) – get through life easier No doubt these political traits can (and do) seep into one’s sex life but they don’t have to At the end of the day one’s sexual prowess doesn’t get down to whether you voted for Shorten or Turnbull or Abbott or Gillard A happy sex life shouldn’t discriminate It shouldn’t kick you to the kerb because you voted for having intercourse is the one activity where we should leave our politics outside the door? ■ Vanessa de Largie is an Australian actress, sex columnist and freelance journalist based in London MAXI M.COM.AU 24 HOU RS TO LI V E AKMAL The Australian comedian and actor discusses his final day on earth… Have you ever felt like you’ve died onstage during a stand-up gig? Yes, I have died onstage once Then three days later I appeared, just like Jesus — only funnier How you want to leave this world? With carry-on luggage only I’m supposed to leave this world next Tuesday at 10.00am but I’ve requested a late check-out Do you have any deathbed confessions? I'll tell you next Tuesday What’s your last meal? A McDonald’s Happy Meal — that way my body will be preserved Are you going to Heaven or Hell? I've already been to Hell several times, it is sometimes called Rockhampton, Queensland What you say to God if you get to Heaven? I will say, “Where the hell have you been and why don’t you answer my calls?” What did you know now that you didn’t know at 18? That my pubic hair would actually turn white Name one thing you’re glad you’ll never have to again I hope to be so successful that I never have to answer questions like this one Which of the seven deadly sins gave you the most trouble? None I’ve been able to enjoy all the deadly sins in full and even added some myself, like sitting on an air hose — I’m not sure what category this fits under What are your friends saying over your casket? “Wow, that’s different – an edible casket.” “YES, I HAVE DIED ONSTAGE ONCE THEN THREE DAYS LATER I APPEARED, JUST LIKE JESUS ʗCB@M FUNNIER.” Who would you like to be reincarnated as? Katy Perry, for obvious reasons What’s written on your tombstone? “Coming soon” Finally, what can audiences expect from your upcoming show in Sydney? They can expect to laugh their arses off I will be selling replacement arses after the show ■ What’s the dumbest thing you ever did on Earth? I sold all my shares in Apple — “This computer thing will never catch on,” I said Akmal will perform his show OPEN FOR RENOVATIONS on May and at the 15th annual Sydney Comedy Festival The Festival runs from April 22 to May 19 For more info and tickets go to www.sydneycomedyfest.com.au MAXI M.COM.AU I N T E R V I E W BY S A N T I P I N TA D O DON’T MISS OUT SUBSCRIBE NOW!
