Kayla is an eight time calendar girl, twice gracing the cover, and becoming the centerfold is a dream come true.

“It’s been out of my reach for so long, for whatever reason,” she says. “I’ve always loved my picture and two covers is awesome, but this feels a little more special.”

Kayala calls herself a “mixologist” at Council Oak Steaks & Seafood where she’s worked for seven years. She makes a dazzling Smoked Old Fashioned that requires lighting a plank of wood on fire, good bourbon, a large ice cube and a twist of orange rum.

Kayla is half Filipino, half Irish. She has a biology degree from the University of South Florida andwants to return to school to become a physicians assistant.

Q & A with Crystal Jasah

Favorite Music?

“My dad’s a farmer so I grew up with country. It’s fun and I love to dance.

“I like everything, but really like Luke Bryan. I’ve seen him in concert six times. It’s the only one I’ve gone to over and over. His concerts are always fun.”

“They have different personalities. Nala’s the baby and such a mess. I love them to death, they’re my kids.”

Experience of being a Hard Rock Calendar Girl?

“The unveiling was a lot of fun. They go month by month and you keep waiting for your name. The anticipation is very exciting. Once they announced December I knew I was either the cover or centerfold.

“I like representing the Hard Rock and getting to see all the charities. You meet so many people. I never thought I could do something this cool with a company so large.”
