I never cared about modeling. As a model, you're powerless.

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.

I didn't want to miss out on my education to model. I can't do just modeling.

Models are some of the most insecure people I've ever met. They're constantly being told they're not good enough. You've really got to practice loving yourself.

I wanted to model when I was younger.

Modelling wasn't a passion of mine, so that made it get old kind of quickly. I was getting very frustrated.

I can say that when you model,when you get to a certain age, that's it for you. I remember there was a time where I was like, 'What am I going to do with my life?' I am a high school dropout who's only modeled. So there was desperation with that.

I never thought I could model, and I certainly never thought about acting. It's just something that happened to me.

I never had an ambition to go into modeling, originally. I still can't believe how quickly it all took off.

I started modeling when I was - not older, but not 12. I have a mom who's a feminist - she's an English professor, an intellectual. She really gave me the equipment to understand that you can celebrate yourself without putting yourself down or needing to apologize for the way you look. I think that attitude is really crucial for a model.
