I started to model because I thought I could use it as an excuse to others, like, 'Yeah, I'm tall because I'm a model.'
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.
As a model, I really stand for not being a model, if that makes sense. When I started, the whole idea of the model was very different; it was a bit stuck-up. Not stuck-up, but no one was trying to have fun, or not even have fun, but be willing to smile.
I wanted to model when I was younger.
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 wanted to become a model since I was a kid.
People call me a 'model-actress,' when I just never started with that... it's not my story.
I never really wanted to be a model. But when the opportunity came, I grabbed it.
There wasn't really one time in my life where I was like, 'I want to be a model!'
I really don't think I ever thought I could be a model. I was shorter than all of the models around and certainly rounder than anybody that I had ever seen in a magazine.
I've always wanted to break the stereotype of being a model.
