| Quotes: |
I didn't want to find out the reality that if I wanted my dream, I had to lose weight. That's a crushing dream for anybody . . . to change yourself to get your dream. Nobody should have to do that.
<br />
<hr>
[about modeling] One of the hardest things is the weight factor issue. I've never heard of a size 0 or a negative human. That's hard. A lot of girls aren't naturally built that way. Also, the lack of having an opinion is the main difficulty. I was always like, "How about we try this?" or "Let's do that." I sort of got the look, "Shut up, model. We pay you for your face, not your mind."
<br />
<hr>
[getting her first love letter] I got some really cute fan mail from an 11-year-old boy, who told me I'm "prettier than a rainbow," which is, like, the sweetest thing any boy has ever said to me. Maybe when he grows up, he'll be able to read this story--and if he is reading this now and he is 11, then, hey, you shouldn't be reading Maxim!
<br />
<hr>
[her first career epiphany] I'm pretty sure I became an actress solely because of craft services. When you're a kid and there's a lady walking around with a tray of chocolate and other free candy, that's the best reason to be in the industry! In modeling, though, there's the shittiest craft services you've ever seen; it looks like they're feeding rabbits. |
