I don't have anything to prove ever, ever in my life. If I have something to prove, what does that mean for everyone else? And I think everyone should have that attitude.

My mom taught me how to sew when I was super young; I used to make clothes for my dolls. When I finally went to [fashion design] school [in 1999], I really took to pattern making. Everyone in class was good at something; I was the person, if you need help with your patterns, you come to me and I would help you out.

I know a lot of people who are 12 and doing things they shouldnt be doing. Whether youre an actress or a singer, its always the sexier ones that are selling more tickets or selling more albums.

I'm an actress, model and athlete, and I'd put athlete third on the list.

Who says that your thirties is when you're supposed to be done? I would like to know who made that rule!

I got involved in the design process a long time ago. I've been working with their main designer [Berlei] for a while. It's been really fun all around.

I have started to realize that I am really just a world athlete and a world entertainer -- I am a world-known person, I am a global icon.
