I hope somewhere along the way, I've inspired someone to do something. ... And I hope they say that I was nice and polite.

Modeling's terrifying to a lot of people. Standing in front of a camera is terrifying. I like a challenge.

I remember one of the first things Helmut Newton on one of his last shoots, in 2004, said was that he couldn't believe how thin I was. He was like, "Whatever happened to women?" He also made me wear rubber nipples. It was amazing to be in a situation where you have to create but you don't feel any pressure. He had such confidence that it made things really easy. There's a natural sort of process of something coming to life, which I really liked. It was like, "We're here, and let's make you lay on a bed of nails." But it didn't seem contrived or overly thought-out. It was easy.

If I'm going to do something, I'm going to do it as best I can. I'm going to give it everything.

I hope somewhere along the way, I've inspired someone to do something. ... And I hope they say that I was nice and polite.

I grew up in a sailing family. My dad lived for sailing, and when we moved to Canada when I was a child, he really wanted us to learn.

Sailing really forces you to be present and in the moment. You kind of forget about the bullshit of life. Your thoughts go away because you're focused on making sure everything's working. I like being in that place.
