Even when I was Miss World, I did all the dressing up I could, so the pretty face thing was done. But it was never about just looking pretty with the crown, I always wanted to make it more than that - I wanted to make it about beauty with a purpose. So I carried that into my films as well.

I was more excited than scared, at the opportunity to work in an English movie.

Haters are a drop in the ocean. Theres that much more love

Life will take its toll on all of us. We get injured, we get old. It's really sad to try to run away from these harsh realities of life. Looks are not everything. I am not going to look beautiful all the time.

I don't believe in proving a point to anybody. Nobody is that important.

Elegance is innate...individual...eternal...it stands the test of time!

Despite being in showbiz, I have a very real approach to my life. It plays off with my social life.
