Girls of all kinds can be beautiful; from the thin, plus-sized, short, very tall, ebony to porcelain-skinned

Paris is one of the most beautiful places in all the world. Unfortunately, I was so homesick I couldn't appreciate its beauty.

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

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

Smiles come naturally to me, but I started thinking of them as an art form at my command. I studied all the time. I looked at magazines, I'd practice in front of the mirror and I'd ask photographers about the best angles. I can now pull out a smile at will.

I talked about adopting a baby when I was 20 years old, before it became 'hip.'

I look at myself and pick out the things I don't like. No matter how much I work out, I never get muscle tone in my butt and hip area.
