I'm not going to fly a million miles with somebody I don't know.
When I was young, around 5, I was crying in all the pictures of me. I did not like the flash; it scared me!
I remember Tyra Banks giving me encouraging advice during my first Victoria's Secret commercial shoot. I was so nervous, and she told me to just relax and be confident - that made me feel very comfortable.
From my hair to my toes to my nails. Everything's fake. Everything! Even my heart is fake.
If you're nervous, that means you care and you want to give your best.

I like presents that a man has spent time on, doing them himself, like a card or anything that is made by hand and from the heart.
