It would be ridiculous for me to say I am unlucky, but, like any other family and any other girl, I've had my ups and downs.

I love men. They are intelligent and sensitive, but there's also that hard-edged arrogant side, which is just so attractive.

If I hadn't have fallen pregnant by my then-boyfriend, I would probably still be living in London doing the celebrity scene.

I like to think I am the sort of person who tries to make the best of things and try to look at the positive side of things.

I'm trying to work on my modelling career and remove myself from the whole FHM stigma. I want to be seen as a classic model.

You don't wake up at 18 and necessarily become the person you want to be as an adult - you have to work hard to become them.

I would be happy not even being a supermodel. Being able to get a taste of everything that I want a taste of makes me happy.

If you want to be mean to each other, just buy a country together and blow each other up. Then we'd have no terrorists left.

All the body's systems and processes - your nerves, your emotions - take instruction from what is going on with your breath.

I have always been physically active. I grew up a tomboy and [was] into sports, so staying active is something that I enjoy.

I used to have nightmares about the civil war when I got to England at ages 14 to 15. It took me some years to get over that.

It makes no difference to my family where one comes from as long as we make each other happy. They are pretty cool like that.

Hef is boring to cook for. He likes a total of four main dishes: fried chicken, pot roast, pork roast and pork chop sandwich!

I have no expectations. Not in a bad way, but I've learned that you can't plan ahead. I live day by day and see what happens.

When you pump up your exercise, it makes you feel better and makes you look better, so you do a better job. It's mental, too.

Sean Penn, for his acting as well as his writing and directing. There are so many actors I respect, but his reach is so wide.

With acting, the last thing you do is try to look pretty. Modeling actually makes acting harder - it makes you so self-aware.

I like to make people laugh. I like that kind of silly stuff. For me, it's a natural thing to want to do something like this.

Being in the world of fashion you have to be very self-absorbed, and you are surrounded by people who are very self-absorbed.

If it's needed for me to have a drop of Filipino blood, I am willing to get it from Makati Med. My heart really belongs here.

Oh my God, I sweat so much! You have to keep deodorant in your purse and use those deodorising wipes that cool you off a bit.

It's absurd to think that desire for attention doesn't drive both women and men. Why are women scrutinized for it more, then?

Some people get up in the morning, don't go to the gym, they go take a shower. Well, I go to the gym, and I get a shower too.

I was noticed by a person from a local model agency, and he proposed that I participate in a beauty contest Miss Chelyabinsk.

If you want to eat chocolate or cakes, you have to eat it in the morning, for breakfast or lunch - don't eat it in the night.

Even if you have some extra kilos, you don't need to kill yourself for that; you just have to look at yourself as a positive.

Ive never really been the type to dress up like the other girls do. Im more of a casual, relaxed kind of girl. More athletic.

I have the thickest skin of anyone you'll ever meet. No one can say anything about me I haven't heard a million times before.

It's so bad being homeless in winter. They should go somewhere warm like the Caribbean where they can eat fresh fish all day.

We don't need to cure hunger - we know how to solve hunger - it's food, it's nutrition, and it's really a question of access.

It's not what my job is about. I'm not out to make a political statement. I want to stand for something, but more by example.

I romanticized domesticity for a while, and loved having a shopping list of groceries stuck to the fridge for the first time.

I've grown up with a lot of my family in the fashion industry, so I've wanted to be part of it for as long as I can remember.

Production chains, how consumers can drive change: all these things may seem at odds with fashion, but arguably, they're not.

Im just a lipgloss, blush and mascara kind of girl. I like playing with a bright lipstick or a heavy eye... But not together!

My mother taught me to wash my hair as little as possible, and to rinse it with Coke before a shoot for a sexy, tousled look.

I like the idea of going to see the ice caps and the polar bears, because who knows how long they are going to be around for?

People often say that if you have to work hard at a marriage, then it's not naturally good, but I think that's totally wrong.

So, we have choice, and sometimes it seems very hard, but the best way to heal physically or emotionally is to keep positive.

Accessories are key - nothing beats a cool Panama hat or statement shades - look to Maison Michel or Miu Miu for inspiration.

Ive never drunk coffee. Im convinced it has something to do with why my skin is good. I have either mint, green or black tea.

I think with modelling and acting these days, the lines are blurred. Everyone can do all sorts of things, so why do just one?

Tension can be useful, exciting, flirtatious, strength-building, or destructive. Put yourself in charge of how you direct it.

The most important thing, when playing characters with chemistry, is being able to work off the other actor and be supported.

Everything has to do with education: If you educate the girls, you educate the family, the community, and society, in general.

We are lucky to live in a world made up of so many different kinds of people and I am confident in the direction we are going.

I never really thought about modelling. It wasn't something I ever wanted to do. I used to always be so angry about modelling.

I think many people can relate to that excruciating pain of love gone wrong. I'd rather have a broken arm than a broken heart.

You don't even want to look in the mirror after you've had a baby, because your stomach is just hanging there like a Shar-Pei.

Quentin Tarantino asked me to work with him but there is no way I am going to do that while Matthew Vaughn is working in film.
