The script was very explicit about the nudity that was supposed to be in the movie. Actually, they don't show everything we shot. They would cut here and it was floored. It was very embarrassing.
I see myself raising my children in Europe, probably in Paris.
If you're with someone who makes you happy in your personal life, then you're happy with where you're at.
You always have to challenge yourself or else you get soft. Right?
Family is becoming more and more important to me.
I do give myself a break in my personal life but I think in work, if you don't push yourself you get bored and want to do something else.
The reason I stopped modeling was because I was not pleased with trying to portray something that is impossible to reach. Even when I do photo shoots now for films, I am just not interested in trying to look my best all the time anymore. That pursuit of an impossible perfection seems ridiculous to me now. I would rather show my vulnerabilities or my doubts than try to be something that no one is.
I truly, genuinely like clothes. Making them is an art form, and wearing them is a form of self-expression. I find it very emotional because I can remember moments in my life - my mood, how I felt - through these clothes.
I am a better person when I let myself have the time for romance and for love.
What you wear is such an expression of who you are. That's like someone picking out who I'm going to date!
People always think I’m dainty when they meet me, but I’m really not. I’m very German – we’re not made out of sugar.
I don't believe in marriage. I believe in a commitment that you make in your heart. There's no paper that will make you stay.
With modeling, you pose. You want to look your best all the time. With acting, you have to be aware of the camera, but the more you show your imperfections, the better you're going to be.
It's taken me a long time to realize that my own life is far more interesting than any part I'll ever play.
