My weight fluctuates, like any normal girl, and I have times when I feel insecure.

We believe in embracing a woman's curves and I feel like now so many people are breaking down these barriers of not only going to a size 6 or 8, which is considered "normal."

When I did the cover of 'Cosmo International,' Turkey picked it up and I got a lot of backlash for it.

I would surrender my being to see you whole once more.

I'm not big on looking up myself. I don't get Google alerts, and I don't look on blogs.

I'm Armenian, but I'm very fair and I look white... I would always get such hate about it.

My father raised us like … we were not allowed to see people in any sort of colors, but also we were not allowed to call people fat. If ever we were to say, ‘Oh that fat person, or this person,’ he would make us put a bar of soap in our mouth and count to 10. We weren’t allowed to look at people like that.
