Borrowing Warhol's famed Q &amp; Andy format for Interview, NYC-based photographer Alana O'Herlihy questions the "Hot Boys" in her life, after an intimate photoshoot, as part of a new series for L'Officiel USA. Meet Jegor...

Photographer Alana O&rsquo;Herlihy, with her cadre of fashionable friends (Gigi and Bella among them), is an industry one to watch. In 2017, her work appeared on Vogue, V Magazine, and i-D. Elsewhere, on Instagram&nbsp;she&nbsp;documented every step of her international travel. If you were keeping up, you&rsquo;d be hard pressed to find the line between her business and pleasure.
Making a home base out of the East Village, Alana, with her multi-media work, is single-handedly bringing the raw edge, exuberance, and grit back to the now-gentrified neighborhood that once boasted Basquiat, Ginsberg, and Madonna as residents. Scrolling through her Instagram, <a href="http://instagram.com/lilmami_lani">@lilmami_lani</a>, it&rsquo;s not hard to trace her references; they&rsquo;re often chopped up, cut out, and collaged. They transcend decades, genres, and media.
Vowing, in 2018, to focus her lens on the &ldquo;hot boys&rdquo; she meets throughout her travel, Alana is flipping the script, reclaiming the male gaze as female and giving men a taste of their own medicine.
Here, she takes Jegor Venned, the Faroese model fronting Tom Ford&rsquo;s current ad campaign, to the Museum of Sex (naturally). And gives&nbsp;him her list of questions inspired by Andy Warhol, but with a twist all her own.&nbsp;
