I'm Not Set On A Pedestal Where

Well, When I Started Modeling In The Mid-'80s, The Girls Who Did Shows Did Shows, And The Girls Who Did Magazines Did Magazines. That's What Was Understood.

I Was Born In London And Raised In Rome Until I Was 4. Then We Went Back To London, Where I Went To School.

I Look At Modeling As Something I'm Doing For Black People In General.

I’ve Been Offered Jobs By Companies That Supported Apartheid Many Times In The 25 Years Of My Modeling Career, But I Have Never Taken One Of Them. I Have To Refuse That Money, Because I’m Not Going To Work Against My People. They’ve Suffered Enough.
