What was your worst modeling experience?
Honest to God, I don’t have any bad memories. It was a wonderful ride and I
loved every moment of it. I feel like the luckiest girl in the world. Were there
painful moments? Of course. Remember, I was no great beauty, I was just
photogenic. How about the time I arrived at a booking a little early as always (we

just sat in the waiting area. An hour and a half later I hear the studio assistant
screaming at the agency because the model wasn’t there. They all saw me but no
one could imagine I was the model!
