I started modeling at 14. It's simple. You respond to what the photographer wants and wear other people's ideas. I got bored with it, though, so I went to university.

Modelling, fashion and film have all encouraged me to learn more about issues and to feel empowered enough to do something about them.

I love yoga. I don't do it as much as I'd like to, but I feel wonderful when I do.

I don't think of myself as a role model for others, but I like to live my life by my own integrity. So, in that sense, I might be a positive influence. I do believe you should get over your insecurities and just try to be the best you can.

It doesn't make me very happy to be on my computer all the time. I've never been drawn to that world.

Don't overpluck your eyebrows. A make-up artist told me this once, and I've always remembered it.

I think subjectivity plays into everything. It's unavoidable; you couldn't avoid it if you tried. I think, potentially, a lot more commercial movies, it seems to be that the people making the films are trying to elicit the same reaction. I think a lot of the most interesting work in art and in films are often kind of polarized opinions and affect people in very different ways, which may be less successful commercially, but they elicit a dialogue that's quite interesting.
