From offstage until the moment I walk onstage, I constantly tweak my talk show and 'Top Model', but at the same time, I often leave my private life by the wayside.

Designers are very fickle. I never wanted to be a victim of that. You're in one minute, out the next.

My fingers used to hurt really bad when I played guitar. I stopped because of it.

Modeling is being a ho, but making it fashion.

I don't like expensive things... I just can't help looking in a magazine for the splurge and the save.

Black women don't have the same body image problems as white women. They are proud of their bodies.

I made my living being 20 or 30 pounds heavier than the average model. And that's where I got famous.
