Ryan Barry won Armani Exchange Model Search [
Armani Exchange Winner Ryan Barry] and gave us a reason to believe in him. He lives in Palm Springs where he works as a personal trainer [
Ryan Fitness]. He is modest and you will rarely catch him bragging about his studies at Cambridge University in England where he was doing a PhD in Cognitive Neuropsychology.
On the top of all of that he is a great person, beautiful from inside and outside, and we are so happy to know him. We recently had an amazing time in Palm Springs [
Listening to piano never looked so good] While
Scott Hoover took those amazing images we wanted to learn more about who Ryan Barry really is, and that is how this Ohlala Interview came to life.
Q: What turns you on creatively, spiritually or emotionally?
RB: I was going to say leather harness, but that's another direction! haha Philosophy turns me on. I love connecting with someone and asking the big life questions. Discussing God, science, and consciousness under the stars is heaven for me. I get inspired by guessing what else is out there, and wondering what it all means. I guess we attract what we fear and love, and I get excited by both.
Q: Your most marked characteristic?
RB: Well, I have a big, thick, humongous... sense of humor! I'm also proud of my Freddy Kruger, Sean Connery, and Bon Qui Qui impressions!
Q: Where do you see your self 5 years from now?
RB: Relaxing seaside, doing Sean Connery impressions, in my birthday suit, philosophizing about the world... assuming it all still exists. Those Mayans and their damn calendar!
Q: What do you wear when you sleep?
