I'm not ugly, but my beauty is a total creation.

I was always a good student. I wasn't the A-plus student, but I studied really hard, and I probably had a 3.2. I always wished that I had the capacity to get straight A's, but I didn't. I didn't beat myself up about it, but I really studied hard for my grades.

A smile is the most important thing you wear.

I actually don't miss modeling and I think the reason why is because of America's Next Top Model.

Well, I don't think of myself as a diva. I'm too dorky! Look at my shoes. (Points to the aforementioned sneakers.) I always look like this. I don't always want to be "working."

Don't chase the money... chase the passion. Because that's what is going to keep you happy and motivated and jumping out of that bed Monday morning.

I enjoy doing fashion shows and transforming myself into different looks for photo shoots.
