When I was pregnant with my second baby, I almost gained 50 pounds. I enjoyed my pregnancy, but then I had to lose the weight for work.
With modeling, I'm thankful to have so many work options. But you do have to be able to say no. In reality, everything would be yes because every gig pays more than any normal job. But you still have to keep your priorities straight in life. And my priorities are my girls.
Ever since I was a little girl, I watched many movies, and a lot of them are in California. So I already felt the United States was my home. It wasn't a difficult choice to move here.
I just realized some things make me happier, and the good weather in California makes me happier.
I'm really tired, incredibly tired of hearing people say that fashion is behind anorexia.
Bones don't make for success on the runway, but a proportioned, balanced body does.
I began working as a model because I was born thin. I didn't become thin to be a model.
What the canons of beauty transmit is an idea of taking care of yourself. Eating well, living healthily, doing sports. It's a way to highlight the natural beauty in each of us. The natural body that all of us are born with.
32 in modeling years is like 60.
It's amazing because I've done so many of these things I've always wanted to do - almost everything - in my career.
I wouldn't know the political solution to ending the conflict in those countries that refugees escape from. The only thing I know for sure, however, is that we need to help these people.
It's easy for me to stay grounded because I know I am just a girl, a mother, a daughter, a lover... a normal person who was lucky enough to do this job, and I know it's my job - not the person I am.
It's all about portion control.
I transform when I work, but on a daily basis, I really don't pay that much attention to my looks.
My mom never used to put makeup on. But one day, when I was a kid, she had a red lip, and I was like, 'Oh my God, you look so amazing!' She said, 'But if I wore it all the time, you would not have noticed.'
When I dream, I dream big.
I am very lucky: there are so many models that look so particular and become the popular of-the-moment models. They have such a unique and special look, whereas I am more classic looking.
I really love women that manage to be amazing in their age.
I was very naughty. That's the reason I didn't go very much to the university, because I was partying with my friends more than going to the university.
I just want to have a lot of kids.
