It was God who made me so beautiful. If I weren't, then I'd be a teacher.

There was a time when everyone remembered that stupid thing about me not getting out of bed for less than $10,000 a day. These days, it's far more important to me that I'm part of a team which raises over $1 million a month for Aids. I'm much more proud of that, than that other old quote.

Cooking is one of my favourite things - from going to the market, bringing the stuff home and preparing it, to cleaning the kitchen afterwards. I've lost my figure a few times. There have been moments when I've overeaten, for comfort. But with discipline and hard work, you can get your figure back.

I don't think age is an ugly process. I think age is a beautiful thing. I love wrinkles. I don't like falling down. If I just wrinkle, I may not touch. If I fall down, I'll lift up.

I think I will always have a place. I don't think I have to rule or reign but there's a place for me.

I did that Dior Couture 60th anniversary show in July. It took so long to get ready, I think I would have rather been watching.

I like glamour. Not afraid of it.
