My first really big job was an advertorial for Italian Vogue. I cried on set because I didn't know what to do. That was two weeks after being in Milan for the very first time. I think I had one or two test shoots there.

After the first summer modeling, I came home with almost as much money as my mom made in a year - after being away for about two months. I just decided to give it a shot, and if it didn't work, I was going to go to college.

I don't really want to control anyone, to be honest.

We are what we see. We are products of our surroundings.

I know that some of the spiritual beliefs that I have are that if I come from a place of love, and I try to get out of my ego and my desire to want more and be selfish in any shape or form, then whatever I'm doing is not good.

I definitely think that being a model makes it more difficult to be taken seriously. And I understand. I don't take it seriously sometimes.

In order for me to parent well I have to empathize and stay open with my son.
