I think it's every girl's dream, a little bit, to be a model because it seems from the outside to be a glamorous industry and I was really into fashion, and I remember just being excited and wanting to be part of that.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I always wanted to be a teacher or wanted to do something with food. But modeling, I just never thought I could do it myself, really, ever. I still have trouble calling myself a model. I just never thought I was tall enough or skinny enough.
I wanted to become a model since I was a kid.
I always wanted to be a model, never an actress. I would see children in ads and stuff and wanted to be like them.
I never had an ambition to go into modeling, originally. I still can't believe how quickly it all took off.
When I was around 16 or 17, I got asked to model, but because I was very 'tomboy' at the time, I wasn't interested. But then I had a bit of teenage rebellion, and I saw modeling as an opportunity to get away from school and parents, so I thought, 'OK, maybe I will be a model.'
When I fell into modeling, because I wanted to work in fashion. I wanted to do styling or make-up. I ended getting picked up to be a model instead during my work experience.
I never wanted to be a model. My modelling career was nothing but a stepping stone to my acting career and that's all I ever saw it as. A pointless rock in the river that has to be stepped on in order to get to the meaningful oasis of acting.
Modeling gave me an opportunity to be someone I'm not each day.
There wasn't really one time in my life where I was like, 'I want to be a model!'
Modeling wasn't the thing that was going to define me in any way; it was just a way to make a lot of money.
