People equate health to a picture in a magazine of a 6-foot-tall thin woman with her skin rolls Photoshopped and her waist edited to be tiny, so when they see bodies that jiggle and move around like they do, they assume it's wrong.
I don't really listen to the media or anyone's perception of beauty, so it makes me almost immune to silly comments about my body.
Airbrushing has sold such a false idea of what a body looks like to the point where people can't tell what's real and what's fake.
Showing young girls' realistically captured bodies in ads lets young girls realise that it's okay to have dimples, stretches, rolls, etc. since we're only human.
I like forming connections with people who follow me on social media because they make me feel like everything is worth it.
Black high-waisted bottoms go with everything.
I like girly, colorful bathing suits.
I just think dieting is something that is run by a billion dollar - a multi-billion dollar - industry that isn't always looking out for your heath. There's healthy ways to do it.
When you surround yourself with really good energy, really good people, you almost don't even think about your body as anything but something to nourish yourself and keep you running.
As a young girl who was not confident in myself, I think I would tell girls of all ages that there is no one type of beauty, and looking towards one standard is the most unhealthy thing in the world.
People try to sell a fantasy with beauty campaigns. Overly Photoshopped, perfect, white, thin figures are a standard that most people still hold as beautiful because the industry says so.
The beauty industry is just like the fashion industry - prejudice is ingrained. But with new people coming in with fresh eyes and passion, I definitely am seeing progress.
It's always been a dream to be in a beauty campaign. Anything that can show girls they can look ethereal at any size.
I typically get 7 to 8 hours, but I'm a 12-plus-hour sleeper. I need to go into hibernation once a week to refuel.
I used to have a recurring black-and-white dream where I would drive in on a hover car and raid the shoe closets of this huge mansion. I don't know what that means at all, to be honest.
The lullabies I grew up with were usually Brazilian religious ones, and they still soothe me into sleep.
I'm completely the opposite of an etiquette icon. I'm brash, and I don't follow any social rules, really. I'm nice, but really, I'm the least-put-together lady in the world.
I feel like, growing up, yes, I loved looking at fashion. I loved Tumblr.
Tradition in fashion is held with such a high regard.
My favorite models are always going to be the people who are pushing the boundary and challenging what it is to be a model.
