VIVA GLAM MAGAZINE’S 2016 TOP 20 SEXIEST MODELS
It is well known that a person’s inner beauty and character will influence the way you see their outer beauty. While some try to pit one against the other, we don’t believe in “inner vs. outer beauty”, but that a woman can have both – and a VIVA GLAM model does have both. We believe that this also applies to being sexy. This year, we picked 20 of our favorites, and here is one of them.
MEET MARISSA IBANESCU

Marissa Ibanescu was selected out of the top 100 finalists of the Tropic Beauty 2015 World Finals to be a featured model in VIVA GLAM.
A look at 26-year-old Canadian student Marissa Ibanescu’s Instagram [@Marishika__] may show a side of her that has mastered the art of the perfect selfie, but we got to know a different side of her.
We took Marissa to Malibu, California to do her photo shoot. She was sweet, friendly, and surprisingly, even shy. We were impressed with her work ethic and eagerness to be a part of the creative process. In Alberta, she’s currently studying for a career in real estate.

When she isn’t hitting the books, Marissa delves into her non-academic interests, like going to museums, spending time with her nephews, and traveling.
Marissa’s secret to keeping her smashing figure? She practices yoga religiously. And, “working hard in the gym,” she explains.
She’s currently featured in the 2016 Kilt Girl Calendar, so hard work is certainly paying off for this sweetheart.
