agent bathroom beds bringing bunk charms constantly dramatic girls grocery lived model stop took
When I first lived in a model apartment... It was two bunk beds to a room, and the bathroom was constantly in use. I was bringing in Lucky Charms cereal, and one day an agent put a stop to that. She said, 'You're making all the girls fat.' They took it off our grocery order. That was the most dramatic thing that happened.

The real way I became a model is I won a genetic lottery, and I became the recipient of a legacy.

I work hard, but my modeling career gives my views undeserved attention.

Saying you want to be a model when you grow up is akin to saying you want to win the Powerball when you grow up. It's awesome, and it's out of your control, and it's not a career path.

academic becoming model
Becoming a model was very counter-culture for my background, which is hyper-liberal, academic and feminist.

In 2007, a very inspired New York University Ph.D. student counted all the models on the runway, every single one that was hired, and of the 677 models that were hired, only 27, or less than four per cent, were non-white.

Fashion is capitalism, and it will be fixed by what the market demands.

outfit single third
When you're looking through a magazine, you'd think every single person's a different person, but every third girl is actually the same girl in a different outfit and makeup.
hard work
Hard work is not why I have been successful as a model.
