Just because you're beautiful, they think you can't act.... I've got a lot more to prove.

The sexiest thing about a women is her health. When you feel good, everyone is attracted to you. But if you look sick, they’ll steer a wild path around you.

Because I was the first super-elite, the press caught on and started calling me a supermodel. So in that sense, I guess I'm the first. But, in my opinion, there were girls that could have been called supermodels before that, if the term was in existence.

There was a point in time when I was in dire need of changing the way the model agency was working.

It's not about failure; it's about trying something and risking something for attaining your goal.

Sometimes I get so wrought up being brushed, poked and pinned all day.

My mom cooked pot roast with noodles and frozen vegetables. Or she'd make spaghetti or hot dogs, or heat up TV dinners. Before I started modeling at age 19, I was 5'8" and weighed 165 pounds.
