I began modeling in N.Y. and doing commercials. That led to regional theatre and then Broadway and then movies.

I remember when I was little, much younger than I was when I started modeling, people always said, 'Oh, you should be a model.' But I didn't like people telling me what to do... But I didn't plan to transform into an actress, either. It just happened.

An unforgettable experience happened on December 15, 1996 when I won the Supermodel contest while still in school. I was just seventeen years old then. Winning that competition was the turning point of my life. That's how I got into modeling and later started acting.

I've done modeling since I was 18, but it didn't take off until I moved to Los Angeles. Modeling has always been something I've been really good at, and has been something that's helped pay bills.

I started modeling, doing the Sears catalog kind of thing, then did a lot of commercials when I was growing up.

I started acting when I was 17. I started modeling when I was 13. It helps in the way that you don't get fazed by cameras too much.

I was four when I started modeling. My mom was very much an off-the-stage mom who knew nothing about the business. She married my stepdad when I was about four, and he had been an actor. Because I was a really smiley kid and could read, which is something they're always looking for, she just decided to give it a shot.

I started modeling when I was 13 or 14, I think.
