After Versace Was Murdered, The First Person

I Love Mentoring Young Girls. I've Always Been Like That.

Yes, I Did And A Lot Of My Friends Who Are In The Same Program As I Were Very Much Supportive, And The Most Important Thing They Said To Me Is Do Not Let This Interfere With What You Have To Do In Taking Car Of Yourself. That Was The Most Important Thing.

I Loved Watching So Many Of The Great Designers I've Worked With Do What They Do. That's Why I'm Still Loyal To The Designers That I've Known Since I Was 16.

Patrick Demarchelier Was The One Who Got Me My First Vogue Cover. It Was French Vogue - I Think In ’87 Or ’88. I Think I Was The First Black Model To Be On The Cover Of French Vogue, Which Was Shocking To Me Because When I Asked Them About It, They Were Like, "oh, No. We’ve Never Had That Before."

I Do Feel That I'm Talking To Someone Who's In A Totally Different Place From Where I Was When I Started Modeling. I Was Fortunate Enough To Have The Wonderful Designers And Amazing Photographers Around Me, And Editors That I Knew, And If I Wanted To Ask A Question, I Asked Them. So That Gap Has Broadened A Bit.
