Tehmeena Afzal aka Miss Meena first got known making mix tapes on her old website MixFlavas back in 2006/7. Since then she has moved on to modeling and being the video vixen in music videos by 50 Cent’s “I’ll do anything”, 50 Cent’s “Ok, You’re right”, Grafh’s “Call me up”, Trav’s “Ride The Wave” and The Dream featuring Rick Ross, Juelz Santana, Fabolous and Ludacris “Rockin That Thing Remix.”
Tehmeena was kind enough to hit me a few pics and answer some questions this interview.

When you were mixing tapes on your site mixflavas.com, what were your favorite mixes? What artists and DJs got the most play from you?
When I ran mixflavas.com the most popular djs mixes were DJ Chuck T, Stackhouse recordings blends CDs, DJ Drama, and DJ Smallz.
What are you listening to on your iPod now?
I’ve got a little of everything, from rock to house, to hip hop..I’m very eclectic in my taste in music.
Everyone asks what’s your favorite movie, but what movie did you see that made you wish you could take those 2 hours of your life back?
There’s actually 2 of them A.I. (Artificial Intelligence) was the worst! and also Sahara….I’ve seen plenty of bad movies but these 2 stuck in my head for years. whenever i hear their names i cringe.
Being fresh to modeling, what do like the most about it? Hate? Or just found surprising?
I love how i get to play different roles and dress up. It’s like being an actress but for photos. I get to express myself without words.
You’ve been in a few 50 Cent music videos, tell me something. After playing 50 Cent’s video game ‘Blood in The Sand’, I’m left with the impression that his crew follows him around all day saying, “Hey 50″ all day long. Is it true?
No, I mean he does roll with a lot of people but I didn’t see them following him around everywhere.
In your interview with Hyphy.com you answered Residential Evil to your favorite video game, but who was your favorite Resident Evil character?
That was one of the scariest games I’ve ever played. I would play it with the lights off and sometimes I would get so scared at night that I would leave it on pause and go to sleep and wait till the daytime to play it again. My favorite character was Jill Valentine…girls that kick ass rule!
We got a fired up debate going on the website regarding women’s traditional roles. The quote that got it going was “It’s a man’s world and women are created to keep men company.” What’s your take on the whole man/woman thing?
Ok, that is the most ridiculous quote I’ve ever heard…we’re all equal the only difference is how we go to the bathroom. The ignorant person who made that quote shouldn’t be living in the united states! LOL
Any last words?
Just wanted to once again thank everyone for their continued support over the years and also I’m also nominated for “impact model of the year” for the southern entertainment awards, please be sure to vote for me Tehmeena aka Ms. Meena at SouthernEntawards.com.
ESPECTACULAR
I like this girl, like her attitude, like this interview(that question about about Shakur’s quote was a nice touch B. I’m surprised she didn’t flip out and get all emotional like you know who
). And I love those tattoos! She should feature them more.
Nice interview. PEACE!!!
that first shot is dead sexy!!
nice interview, she seems cool and laid back. She is sexy by the way! i like those tatts on her hips too
That third pic is FIYAH.
Thanks for the hot and sexy drop black.
She’s alright but the problem I have with these Middle Eastern looking girls like her and Shakur is that they all look like cousins and sisters and you can throw in that other chick Nilanti in there also. They ALL look alike to me. Same nose and facial features. Well Shakur got so much work done I don’t even think she knows what or who she really is… but you get my point.
Dont stereotype Redz. That’s not cool.
But you can say the same about white people, black people, Chinese people and so on. Its all about different culture.
Lol I didn’t think of it as stereotyping BUT I think the problem is most of the families in the Middle East, East Asian where Shakur, Nilanti and Tahmeena origns come from look so much alike because throughout their history its not uncommon for them to have arranged marriages to distant cousins. Do the research, the current Prince of Dubai is married to his cousin and thats just one of his wives. And most of these women can only marry inside their culture, religion, and race. Therefore their mixture of genes and features will never be distinct if their constantly ONLY marrying and pro-creating inside their religion, race, and culture. Hence why majority of these East Indian girls turn models look the same to me.
He speaks the truth reck, to a point. I wont go fully into it cuz I have a few Indian friends and they can be very secretive about that stuff but I think that tradition is starting to die off. I noticed current generation Indians (from India but not living in India) have a lot more freedom, they can f*ck around with other “races” but when it comes to marriage they better follow suit and dark skin is an absolute no no for lighter complexioned Indians. Although I have witnessed a lot that would suggest the contrary.
But like he said, do the research, I don’t think they all look the same though.
I’ve got to agree with Redz on this. Don’t get me wrong they are pretty but all of the models he named do look the same.
I DON’T LIKE THOSE KIND OF WOMAN,COMING TO AMERICA TO STILL ARE MEN GO BACK TO YOUR COUNTRY AND SHE NOT CUTE @ ALL
LOL, Meena was born in New York. She is 2nd gen. The rest is just the American Dream. Hell the mix it what makes us different than any other country on the planet.

ONE THING I’M VERY PRETTY GORILLA AND I DON’T HAVE TIME HATING ON PPL
Soooooooooo sick of the ‘don’t hate’ bullshit. It’s getting old, overused, and taken out of context on both ends.
As far as the girl goes, she’s just ok. Although I love her attitude. It was a good interview, I loved what she had to say about the Shakur comment … So uh … Yea. 5.5.
lol. I like you, Dee…

[...] load. Since then, she’s been in tons of music videos being the quintessential video chick. Blackjackskanz has an interview with her. I’m cool with just checking out her pics. Check out the see [...]
She really cute but nothing special, at least from these pics. If I met her in real life I’d be like DAAAAAMN!!! But in photos not so much.
Yeh not bad. I think she looks much better on the pics on her site.
(Here for example:

Also, I find it odd that despite 95% of the 3rd pic being airbrushed so much they seemed to not go near the one spot that actually needed it…
Lol link didnt work, but yeh, she has better pics
