I do say no to things that I think are completely gratuitous.

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.

It is in the mind and the heart where we meet. It's not the body-the body will change.

I don't even know what would have happened to me had I not become a model. I don't know if I would have gotten out of Oklahoma. I was so young when things started happening for me and I realized I could make a living.

Women can be strong, be smart, be sexy, be mothers, be wives, and be powerful. We don't need to compromise.

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

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.
