I'm not going to sit here and say, 'Pity me; I came from modeling.' It's opened a lot of doors. People will take meetings because they've heard the name before. That's an advantage that I have.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Modeling is a lonely business... You don't speak. You don't really portray anything but an image... the business is so superfluous about dealing with the outside, it messes with your mind.
Some people start modeling because they want to be models and they want the parties and the recognition, and then there are people like me. I come from a simple family, and for me getting into modeling was a chance to make money and create a business.
Modeling is the world that I feel most welcome in.
I've always seen modeling as a stepping stone.
Modeling is a profession where your worth is tied up with looks.
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.
Models now need to promote themselves, think like businesswomen and diversify their careers by doing other things. Chances are very slim that a mere model will become a household name today.
What I love the most about modeling is that it opens you a lot of different doors of opportunities and takes you to many different places, which then put you in touch with various people and cultures.
Modeling is always something I've really admired because I've seen my mum and sister do it.
People call me a 'model-actress,' when I just never started with that... it's not my story.
