I have been so blessed not only to talk about things that I want to talk about in my industry, but also to have a platform - and people want to hear about it. People want the change; people want the difference; people want to know what's going on. People want to see themselves in the industry that for so long has ostracized girls of my size.

For me, wearing lingerie isn't about anyone else but me. If I dressed for others I would be a miserable person.

It's just amazing to be a part of something that you so strongly agree with.

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.

Since I first started playing basketball, I have just loved it, and nothing has ever made me lose that love.

The sense of pride I take away from doing something I know will be inspire women to feel confident about their bodies.

Some people might only recognize me half naked in my bikini and bra!
