I Don't Obsess About My

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.

Realization That I Couldn't Be A Ballet Dancer Was A Blessing In Disguise Because That Was The First Time I Felt Like I Stepped Into Adulthood. I Realized, Okay, This Is Not Going To Work Out. It Was Frustrating For About A Year Because I Didn't Know What To Do With The Creativity And The Discipline That Dancing Had Instilled In Me From A Very Young Age. But Then I Moved To Paris To Model, And That Was My Cultural Awakening. Now, I Think Dancing Has Been The Biggest Thing In My Life, Much More So Than Modeling, And It Still Helps Me Enormously In My Work.

I Dreamt Of Becoming A Ballet Dancer. I Studied With The Royal Academy Of London For 11 Years, And That Did Not Pan Out, But My Love For Being On Stage Was Born There. And Then, I Actually Went To Drama School In Paris, France. That's Where It First Started.

Sometimes You Can Write A Great Scene, But When You're Actually In A Situation And It Doesn't Work, You Have To Be Flexible Enough To Make It Work For You.

I'm Not One Of Those Women Who Thinks Beauty Is A Curse.
