If You Think I'm Over-the-top,

I Had To Fight Like Hell To Convince People I Was Beautiful In My Own Polish Half-breed Way.

My First Job Was For A Blue Jean Company As A Sitting Model. I Posed For 15 Minutes And Made $50. It Was 1976.

I've Been The Queen Of Dysfunction And Made Every Mistake One Can Make.

But As A Young Model, I Never Felt As Beautiful As I Looked.

And I Will Never, Ever Respond To Anybody - Man, Woman, Vegetable, Or Mineral - Who Tells Me To Keep My Mouth Shut.
