Beauty is deeper than just what you look at in a picture. You could fancy what you like, but as a woman my mother always raised us to believe in ourselves. I'm very grateful for the fact that my mother brought me up that way.
Alek WekI believe that true beauty comes from inside you and that always shows through. I have no problem with whatever the next look is, whether it's big blonde hair and blue eyes or green hair and dark eyes. That's fine so long as there isn't just one ideal image.
Alek WekI have no problem with whatever the next big look is. Just don't try and tell me that only one look is beautiful.
Alek WekThere are models who don't eat. That's worrisome - you need the right amount of gas to get going.
Alek WekWhen itโs all said and done I would like to look back and think that I help to make modelling a possibility for a greater number of people. I donโt do things that I will regret in the future. I tend to err on the side of caution. Not to mention the fact that the present world I reside in would not have been possible without my past. I am most proud of being able to represent my family and community with honour and dignity.
