stupid people black
I look at modeling as something I'm doing for black people in general.
women bullshit too-short
Life's too short to bullshit.
mind drink
I cannot drink or do anything that changes the mind.
want lots-of-money
I make a lot of money, but I don't want to talk about that.
girl mentoring young
I love mentoring young girls. I've always been like that.
flying mind planes
I don't mind flying. I always pass out before the plane leaves the ground.
blame enough accepting
I'm very observant and very instinctive. In life, you have to have the vulnerability to accept when you are to blame. And I do have that, and I am open enough to say 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.
confident scary start
What is very scary is that you start to feel too confident and you start to feel indispensable.
call exactly victoria
To Victoria Beckham: So why exactly do they call you Posh?
natural ways
What I like about gyrotonics is you feel like you really elongated yourself for the day... As we all get older, everything changes and moves, and there's natural ways to exercise. I think it's important, and I think it's something that can help keep things in place.
behavior
very disappointed in her behavior and that she should go now.
models
I feel very responsible for young models of colour. They come to me and tell me they're not getting jobs, and I do what I can to speak up for them.
