It's difficult to see yourself up on screen without being a critic.

I always thought models had to fit a certain mould. I never thought I had what it takes. I'm too small and my look's pretty weird.

I lived in London for eight years and I like to say that I am two parts American and one part British because I lived there for a third of my life

I'm really not that weird. I'm a combination of a lot of different things. Maybe it's just easier to make me look weird than another model who is specifically Caucasian.

I think people like to think I'm in some way financially dependent on my family - on my dad - but the fact of the matter is I've been emancipated from my father since I was 14 years old. That's something people don't know or understand.

In modeling, my height was a big challenge to overcome, because I was pretty much the shortest girl on the runway whenever I was doing the catwalk. The clothes didn't fit and the shoes didn't fit. It was an issue, but luckily, it didn't prevent me from working.
