  • Is Nina Drama an industry plug? Is the Nina Drama Sean Strickland duo a set-up by Dana White?
    Laura Sanko sits down with Nina Marie to get to the bottom of where she came from. She was not always UFC Nina, she came from a background in modelling with Playboy, but how did she get here?
    Nina Marie has become a very prominent name in UFC media, featuring the biggest names in her social media videos, such as Dan White, Jamal Hill, Alex Pereria, Shavkat Rakhmonov, Sean Strickland, Leon Edwards (are you Arab?), and Tom Aspinall with the famous finger question.
    Laura Sanko talks to Nina about her professional history, and how she rose to the top so fast.

      Women have their own version of "introverted" when it suits them, so they won't feel judged. But obviously some really are introverted though. In Nina's case, she made it very clear she cares what ppl think of her so I'm not buying it

    • @jimmyramos1989
      @jimmyramos1989 14 днів тому +2

      Introverted doesn’t mean shy. It means she gets her emotional energy internally and/or by herself. Extroverted people get energy for their emotional battery from others and social situations.

    I had a friend who modelled for a while but then quit because she was so bored all the time! She just thought it was a boring job! I think maybe Nina likes this more because she has more agency and can be more herself and that's all we want out of a job, really.

    I've never understood why people disliked Nina. She's seemed genuinely a fan of the sport and a positive spirit in the drama filled space. Glad She's here and hope she stays.
