On young models’ diets:
I try to explain to the girls [on Germany’s Next Top Model] that eating is important to stay in shape, but also to have beautiful hair, nails and skin. They eat a bunch of crap. They’re 16, 17 years old and some have more cellulite than I do! It’s like, yeah, you eat one bag of chips after the next or those fruit tarts – what do you call them? – Pop-Tarts. I’m pretty good about not eating too many carbs. I love vegetables.
On NYC breakfasts:
I don’t eat bagels – no way! A bagel is basically a cardboard box. And if you slap cream cheese on it, it’s bad on top of bad. I’d rather do a black bread with half an avocado and salt and pepper. But usually I’ll have a smoothie in the morning.
On dessert:
I go to a lot of birthdays, with four kids. I hate all those cakes: carrot cake, cupcakes. I like ice cream, though. I don’t do anything fat-free. I do whole milk, whatever that is.
On her weight:
I go up and down at times, which is tricky for my stylist. It’s like, ‘Oopsie!’ But we just take the dress out. My scale ran out of batteries a year ago, and I never put new ones in.
On looking ageless:
I don’t! If you put a 20 year-old next to me, of course you see a difference, but that’s normal.
On what’s attractive:
I love a funny woman who doesn’t take herself seriously. That, to me, shows confidence. That is sexy.
On her boobs after breast feeding:
I breast fed four kids. My boobs were bigger before, but they’re still good! I had to do what I had to do.
On body image:
Not everyone wants to fit into a pair of skinny jeans. Some women feel sexier when they have more meat on their bones. Their guy likes it more or they like it more. Me, I like it when I’m more fit. I feel very comfortable with the way I am right now.
