I'd say I was a tomboy... I took wood chop in high school and I was very into volleyball and football, and [was] very unaware of anything girly for a long time.
I feel my absolute best physically, mentally and spiritually when I'm surfing every day.
Everyone in my family is a nurse except me.
I'd love to design my own swim collection for them (VS)...Heidi (Klum) does the lipsticks, I would love to one day do the bikinis.
I like to have curves and feel like a woman. I hope that people see that in my photos and know that healthy is better than skinny.
Growing up, I was always really shy about my body.
Well, beauty's in the eye of the beholder... It's all subjective. I'm kind of shy about it, but I'll take it.
Eating smart is all about having an awareness of your body. The most obvious way to do that is by seeing it. So when you're trying to lose weight, spend more time wearing less. I don't think I could eat a plate of nachos naked - could you?
Enjoy the moment and appreciate what you have.
For acting, if there's a strong female role and there is that action element, for me that just feels really natural.
I love 'Guitar Hero' because I love music, but I have no musical ability whatsoever. So I love a game that makes you feel like you're a rock star.
I love rock and roll. Sometimes I feel like I was born in the wrong decade because I love Led Zeppelin and Jimi Hendrix and... those are my bands.
I'm from Santa Cruz in Northern California, and the 49ers were my dad and I's bonding time.
I've grown up watching football my whole life.
