I wanted so badly to study ballet, but it was really all about wearing the tutu.

Focusing on the way I look makes me uncomfortable. I try to focus on the way I feel - I know what makes me feel better about myself. Reading my child a story makes me feel great, doing my hair nicely doesn't.

Acting and modeling have nothing to do with each other.

If your wearing lingerie that makes you feel glamorous, you're halfway thereto turning heads.

It's not vanity to feel you have a right to be beautiful. Women are taught to feel we're not good enough, that we must live up to someone else's standards. But my aim is to cherish myself as I am.

The birth of my sons. The birth of new emotions...what a privilege. What a blessing.

You have nothing to sell except for the image: The image is everything.
