Maine Mendoza enters the room with a silent presence. The funny girl on cam is actually pretty shy and reserved in real life. For her third Preview cover (her second solo in the past two years), we can say that we’ve seen Maine at her most comfortable and confident even when the cameras are clicking away. One after another, she’d give us subtly sexy yet glamorous poses that we’ve seen some of our favorite models do. But of course, with bursts of hilarious wacky poses here and there—she’s a natural comedian after all. And though our shoot went on quite late into the night, her light, casual, and fun energy kept the team all smiles until the end of the shoot. Scroll down to see what else happened during our lit shoot with Maine.
