Now that I work as a professional model, I advise people to stay away from any television shows. It's a waste of your time; it's just entertainment. It's not the fashion that we now know.

I want people to recognize me for the work I do now as a model, and not something I did three years ago.

I went from not knowing anything to becoming really curious and wanting to know and respecting people in the industry, realizing how hard they work. I will always be thankful for 'Top Model' for that.

In Beverly Hills... they don't throw their garbage away. They make it into television shows.

Basically, I didn't know anything about fashion. I was very nerdy; I went to Bryn Mawr and never even noticed models when I was 21.

If you believe that your thoughts originate inside your brain, do you also believe that television shows are made inside your television set?
