- I started smoking for Errance (2003), it was hard to quit afterward.
- This [quitting modeling and going into acting] was my liberty. I needed to be honest with myself. I never asked to be a model; I never wanted to be one. I would say, 'Who are you actually dressing on the street? If you think women look like that you don't know what's going on'. So that was my first fight. I had to make them accept me.
- The key to modeling success is having a point of view and a personality.
- I didn't know she [Brigitte Bardot] was so shy. Things weren't easy for her. She was treated like meat, just a sex symbol; she was not treated like a woman anymore and I related to her. She told me she still liked humans, but I understand why she turned to animals instead.
- They [Victoria's Secret] asked me to do interviews and I tried to say what I believed in and they kicked me out in a way. They said, 'You can't do that.' I remember being asked what my dream was for Christmas and I'm sorry, I didn't want Victoria's Secret underwear. So they kicked me out. I was too much of rebel.
- [Initially] I thought I was lucky [to be working with Victoria's Secret], that there were interesting people to work with. They would ask me which photographers they should work with and I suggested a woman. That was interesting, then they started asking me to be a piece of meat and I said, 'Bye bye.' It became not about beauty, but about sex, it was soft porn. I didn't want to be just an object, so I went away.
