With a family of six, there is always something to make, create and do together.

I'm someone, the same as my girlfriends, when they say what do you think about this, I don't always say they look fabulous. I say what I think.

When I came out of school I didn't even think that modeling was a job.

I have the best husband in the world. He's very involved.

So to get back to being intimidated, yes, you get intimidated when you're on the runway with Naomi Campbell, who is the best runway model in the world.

Because I'm on the runway with some of the best models in the industry.

A woman is a woman!

Well, I was already so happy being chosen to do the issue itself, that when I got on the cover, it was even more of a surprise and even more amazing to me.

But all the money in the world cannot make you happy either, so there has to be a balance.

I danced for 15 years of my life. Which was my love and my passion.

I love painting.

So everyone has that problem, models have that problem, too.

I actually eat a lot.

The main thing is healthy eating, exercise, which I do for special events, like if it's Sports Illustrated, or the swim suit catalogue for Victoria's Secret, or my own calendar that I did for the year 2000.

A little acting debut in Spin City, with Michael J. Fox, which opened up a whole new door for me.

I was being rejected all the time. Agents would say, 'I don't think you're the type they're looking for.' I was always like, 'You think? I don't want you to think. I want them to think that.' This business is all about someone's opinion, but not the agent or the manager's. How do they know? They're not that person.

I'm not that patient sometimes. I'm like a rocket - I go a hundred miles per hour.

Some people are born skinny, and that's just the way it is. You can't point a finger at them and say they're ill or anorexic. It isn't fair to people born that way.

I like doing small parts, because I don't feel I'm that practised in acting. It's like making baby steps towards a bigger goal.

Well, I was going to school in Germany. And in my free time I was dancing.

For me, my business is my business and my house is my house. I don't want the public in my house.

Fashion is a very particular world, as you know.

I sing a lot, even with my voice.

I don't have my name on anything that I don't really do.
