In brief: Vixen named Hope Heaven its newest Vixen Angel, XBIZ reported on Oct. 16, and she picked Amsterdam for the photoshoot with fellow Angels Jessi Rae, Nancy Ace, Stefany Kyler and Agatha Vega.
Hope Heaven has her wings, and a necklace to go with them. Vixen Media Group named her its newest Vixen Angel and marked it with a photoshoot in Amsterdam, the city she picked, alongside fellow Angels Jessi Rae, Nancy Ace, Stefany Kyler and Agatha Vega, XBIZ reported on Oct. 16.
“The Netherlands was a very natural choice for me,” Heaven said. “I’ve always loved the country, and when I started thinking about where I would want such an important shoot to take place, Amsterdam immediately felt right. It has this beautiful mix of classic European architecture, fashion and modern energy that matched the vision perfectly. I loved being able to show a more sophisticated and editorial side of myself.”
“From the moment I shot my very first scene with Vixen in the Dominican Republic, I knew this was where I wanted to go. I remember thinking, I want to become a Vixen Angel one day. To finally reach that goal feels almost surreal.” — Hope Heaven, via XBIZ
She says the signature Vixen necklace means more than the jewelry. “Every time I wear it, I’ll be reminded of that journey, the work, the experiences, the growth and the moment I finally achieved something I had set my mind on years ago.”
Her new teammates were just as warm. “She’s so sweet, kind, sincere, beautiful and wonderful—everything that makes up a Vixen Angel,” Kyler said. Director Julia Grandi, who directed Heaven in the XMA Europe-winning feature “Pull,” put it simply: “For me, the Vixen Angel title simply recognizes who she already is.”
Why it matters: it caps a strong run for Heaven, who recently won Best Acting at XMA Europe. Our read: she manifested this one on her first shoot, then got to choose the city where it came true.
