SCORE: Can you tell us where you got your complexion from?

KERRY MARIE: My real dad is half Greek, plus some Florida sun has definitely helped since I've been here in Key Largo. I do tan very easily.

SCORE: Are people surprised that you're English because of your complexion?

KERRY MARIE: Yeah, some people are surprised. I get accused of being anything from Spanish to Indian to everything, so some people don't believe that I am English. But I am English, just a little bit Greek.


SCORE: Now, of course, you haven't always been a model and a dancer. Weren't you a dental hygienist at one time?

KERRY MARIE: I was actually a dental nurse for about seven months. It was quite an enjoyable job because I loved working with people. I couldn't be behind a desk in an office. I have to be with people. And it was a very good job. Bad pay, but good job.

SCORE: You've had quite a few jobs.

KERRY MARIE: That's right. I've been everything from a barmaid to a retail assistant to putting together PC boards. I've done a variety of things in my time before I was a model.

SCORE: And you say you almost joined the Army?

KERRY MARIE: What happened was, I left school and I wanted to be a Military Police officer in the Army, and I went for my initial interview, but I was 5'3" and at that time you had to be at least 5'5" to join the Military Police. They asked if I'd like to join as something else, but I had my heart set on the Military Police, so I didn't join. It's quite a good thing now, but at the time I was very upset.

SCORE: This was how long ago?

KERRY MARIE: This was when I was 16, when I just left school.

SCORE: The Army's loss is the breastman's win.
