Selita Ebanks is featured in the Holiday/November 2010 issue of Vegas Magazine.
She talks about what she likes to do in Vegas:
“I always have way too much fun—too much shopping, too much great food, too much partying. Whenever I’m in Vegas, it feels like the whole world is there. It’s constant, nonstop. I can only bear so much!”
In the issue Selita talks about her new book/memoir she’s been writing:
“It’s sort of a diary/self-motivation book. I feel like at my age I’ve accomplished so much, but there are a lot of young women out there who are struggling, and I want them to know that it wasn’t always like this for me. There was a time when I was in foster care, there was a time when my mother was on welfare, there was a time when I didn’t have half of what I have now.”
She also talks about launching a health care initiative called Birth Right:
Ebanks used her Celebrity Apprentice winnings to launch a healthcare initiative called BirthRight, and this past summer, hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons hosted a fundraiser at his home in New York, which brought in $400,000. With the money raised, BirthRight will be able to build six village birth centers. “We’re putting solar panels on the buildings so they don’t have to rely on generators as much. They’ll have ultrasound machines and will be able to give blood transfusions and have enough supplies and antibiotics,” she says.
