Christie Brinkley told me that I needed to become a movie star because I have that something, and then we actually just became friends on set. She has such a young spirit, and is so vivacious. It was such a fun, fun shoot.

I actually love modeling clothing and showing women that clothing and style can help your confidence shine.

I wasn't put on the cover of Sports Illustrated as a plus-size model, I was put on the cover of Sports Illustrated as a model, as a rookie, as Ashley Graham. This is exactly where we're headed, and yes, there are so many more things we need to do in the curve/plus-size industry.

Love yourself. Be proud of who you are.

My fans are incredible. Don't you dare talk bad about me on my Instagram, because my fans will come out and they will eat you alive.

Everyone wants to be an "expert" on social media and share their opinion behind the keyboard.

There is no reason to hide and every reason to flaunt.
