Check your lipstick before you come and talk to me.
features
My features are completely ethnic.
cents hard
I work very hard and I'm worth every cent.
living-my-life i-live-my-life
I live my life day by day, and that's how I continue to live it.
mistake role-models perfect
I make many mistakes. Many mistakes. I'm not a perfect human being. I have to learn from my mistakes. And a lot of the ones I've made have been public. So I always get nervous when people speak about something that sounds like a role model, because I don't know if I've been a great role model myself.
real years careers
I'm happy with the way I did my career, I wouldn't change it in a million years. I got to do the real grafting and learning from real models when I was younger - how to open up a jacket, walk, and such.
trying charity littles
In charity, every little bit works. You can't change the world. You can't do everything. But you sure try to bring awareness and do as much as you can.
self-esteem loneliness issues
Anger is a manifestation of a deeper issue... and that, for me, is based on insecurity, self-esteem and loneliness.
always-trying people want
I'm always trying to do the impossible to please people. It comes from not being secure in myself and not looking at the things within I have to fix. Sometimes you keep going because you don't want to face the truth.
inspiration world source
[Castro is] a source of inspiration to the world.
challenges easy used
Nothing's ever come easy to me and nothing ever will and that's okay. I'm used to that. I go with the challenges. I roll with the punches.
beautiful thinking born
I don't think I was born beautiful. I just think I was born me.
asking-questions people looks
I'm determined, and I'm passionate and driven about whatever I commit myself to do. If I don't know something, I'm going to ask, and I've got no problems in asking questions. I never have. People ask me, "Are you nervous when you go on the runway? You don't look it." Yes, I am.
