Quote

Christie Brinkley told me that I needed to become a movie star because I have that something, and then we actually just became friends on set. She has such a young spirit, and is so vivacious. It was such a fun, fun shoot.

For me, I don't do nip or bush. I won't do it. And that's because I talk to numerous young women in high school and I talk to them about owning who they are, and not giving up their sexuality because they have to.

Embracing uniqueness and showcasing the beauty of our differences is what I am all about so the fact that my words and image can impact positive change is a perk of this job I never expected I would have.

As a model, I'm used to having my body scrutinized, and I have a tough skin so I can shake it off. I know I'm the only person that gets to decide how my body should look.

It's really important that we stop body shaming people online and on social media. The rude comments under pictures, comparing women in who looks better posts - all that does is force us to judge each other. It only sets us back and women, now more than ever, need to empower each other.

Basketball, and the people I have met through the game have far and away had the largest impact on my life. Almost every positive role model I have ever had was a coach, mentor, or teammate.

Growing up I didn't have curvy role models, mainly because I didn't see enough curvy women represented in major ads.

If a plus-size woman is not represented in fashion or on TV, what the hell are we doing?
Ashley Graham
Image
I know my curves are sexy and I want everyone else to know that theirs are too. There is no reason to hide and every reason to flaunt.

The sense of pride I take away from doing something I know will be inspire women to feel confident about their bodies.

I've learned a lot about fashion through modeling, but you know what they say, mother knows best. She used to tell me, Your shoes, bags and belt better match before you walk out the door. I love her, but I don't necessarily agree with that advice anymore!

Don't let your image, don't let your size, hold you back. If I had let my hips or my jiggly thighs hold me back or the fact that I've got these big heavy breasts, then I would not be where I am today.

It doesn't matter if you're a size 2 or 22, you can be healthy as long as you're taking care of your body, working out, and telling yourself 'I love you' instead of taking in the negativity of beauty standards.
