DELETE YOUR GRINDR FOR FRED SCARF

I feel like this is getting the cart ahead of the horse. Why don’t we do the interview and start with that.

I’ve got more issues than a Vogue Magazine. So me being in Vogue feltinevitable.
The music. Can you tell us more?
I transitioned from model/dancer to artist about 4months ago. And I spent the pandemic developing my voice and learning towrite.
Why music? What does it mean to you?
Music reaches places in a person that other things cannot. As a dancer, you are dancing to music. As a model, you’re usually being shot to music. Music is the creation of order out of chaos.
Share a fun fact about your music.
I write all my music now! There are no co-writers! When I started 4 monthsago, I didn’t own any of my songs and wasn't legally allowed to change thelyrics of the songs I was singing. Now I write my own music.
The products. Can you tell us more?
As a model, I can’t afford to guess with my skincare. So I created Stop Guessing Skincare.
