I've been boxing since I was 19 years old. For me, it's great zen time. Some people find that in yoga or meditation, but when I'm boxing, I'm not in my head. That's why I love it. It's also great for my skin and hair because I sweat so much, which gets the circulation going.

I think women age so beautifully, and that's why I plan on modeling for as long as I can, because I want to show them — the world, the business — that a mature woman can be a model and be beautiful.

Sex is for after marriage. Men have to respect that this is my choice. If there’s no respect, that means they don’t want me.

From my hair to my toes to my nails. Everything's fake. Everything! Even my heart is fake.

A man needs to be polite, not just to me but to everyone. I watch that. How does he treat the waiter? How does he treat the coat-check girl? How does he treat the driver?

I would like just one time to be on the cover of Italian Vogue.

My favorite designer is Christian Lacroix, not just because his clothes are amazing and I love them, but because he's so nice. When I did his fashion show, he was the first one to arrive there and he helped everyone.

I believe love just happens once. You can be mistaken, you can think you are in love, but after a while you discover that you're really not. Real love is different.

I missed out on everything. Sometimes on the street I see teenagers hanging out and going to the movies, going to concerts, and I get so jealous.

Modeling is a tough job, your co-workers are your rivals, it really puts a damper on your perspective of other girls.

It's wrong for a guy to have no personality, no heart. Because I don't care about style or money.

Fashion is about good energy. It's about feelings. That's what I have to give the people, good energy and good feelings.

Here in the big city people spend their time thinking about work and about money; they don't give some value to friendships and it can be depressing.

I am lucky enough to live in Miami so dinner on the beach with people I love is one of my favorite ways to relax.
