I didn't want to do the obvious role that you see in Hollywood most of the time, which is the heartbroken girl who's waiting to be rescued by the guy, blah, blah, blah. I wanted to do something different.

I've never experienced a bad situation with men being sexist with me. I've been very lucky - even when I was just starting and modeling in Milan and Paris.

When you play a character, you bring yourself into the character. You get a chance to shine and show your translation for the character and her state of mind.

I always tell myself that it is very, very important for me to be a good role model for Alma, my daughter.

My agent called me and said, "You have an audition for James Bond. They're looking for the girl." And I told him, "Listen, it's all in English. I'm not an actress. I'm not going to go." He thought I was kidding with him.

I just keep active - everything thats challenging me, everything that I feel like doing.

The people who work in the fashion industry and the people who work in the film industry have a lot in common. They're very creative. Their eye is very aesthetic.
