Love & Hip Hop New York’s Erica Mena covers the January 29th issue of Rolling Out Magazine. The risque images feature a glammed up reality TV star in an asymmetric body suit with one breast exposed, yet covered with the hand bearing her blinged out engagement ring.

The accompanying story is the real star here. Mena takes us inside the inner workings of her mind when it comes to work, love and sex.

I must say the goth-glam look slays! Her dark makeup and thigh-high leather boots paired with pearls create a contrast that merges sex with sophistication– the latter of which we rarely see from her on VH1.

The cover story gets as juicy as the cover shoot suggests. The publication got Mena to open up the fights we’ve seen throughout the Reality TV series, bi-sexuality and her and her fiancé Bow Wow’s life in the bedroom.

Two of the more controversial excerpts below:

Rolling Out: Last season, you were in a relationship with Cyn Santana. Some people will say, “Erica Mena was in love with a woman a few months ago, how can she be ready to marry a man?” How do you address such comments?

People have misconceptions about everyone I’ve dated. Last year, it’s like “oh, all of sudden, she’s gay.” No, I’ve been bisexual. In the past, I’ve been very open and affectionate towards females. It’s definitely no secret. At that point, I was dating a woman and brought her on the show.

Sex with Bow Wow

Being with Bow (Wow,) he’s so dominating and that just turns me on, because I’m usually the dominating one. I’m a Scorpio, so I call the shots. It’s different to have someone that you can finally be submissive to. So dealing with a woman like me, it’s kind of like, ‘Can she be tamed?’ It’s all a matter of, are you man enough to tame the woman. And there’s a way to be assertive, but still give that embraceable nature that makes a woman kind of submissive to you, that’s very powerful. But in order for a man to feel like a man, a woman has to give him the most respect. But in order for the woman to give you that respect, you kind of have to demand it and make her embrace you for what you are doing to her to respect you. So it’s a catch-22. I think men are scared of being men these days.

I’m not sure what’s going on with Rolling Out’s website, but NecoleBitchie.com has a few more interview highlights for you read more.
