I was lucky to have a successful career as a model, but that was just a way to pay off my college loans.

I've acted my whole life pretty much, but then just got more into modelling.

I never thought of a career of as a model, and it was a total surprise for me when I won the contest and became Miss Chelyabinsk. Then I started modelling in Paris.

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.

I went to a modeling agency and said I wanted to be a model. I worked, worked, worked so much while I was studying.

I never thought modeling would become my career. I thought it was something I'd do to pay my way through college.

Modeling, for me, was not fulfilling. I didn't see the point - although I was able to travel a great deal. I lived in Italy, Germany, and Spain, but I wasn't devoted to it.

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.

Modeling is not a passion of mine. I have been having fun with it, but it's just to pay the bills.
