Before, being a model, it was just a job, and I was making fun of it. But today, I take my career more seriously. The fact that a reader may buy an Armani item because she'd seen it on me in a magazine is very important to me. So much so that I intend to launch my own label.

I've always been attracted to characters that were interesting to me, and different.

If you feel like you're helping someone else, it helps you feel more in control of your world.

There are many times where even I, at certain points in the evening, after a few drinks, can't pronounce my own surname.

When I think about myself at 15, I can't relate to myself at all. I thought I knew everything.

My regular life today is reading books, making dolls houses, sewing dolls with my daughter and barbequing.

I was also an only child and my father really wanted a son - he's from that generation - it was always about kung-fu theater on Sundays and boxing games on the weekend.
