For a while I was on the cover of every Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue, which was regarded as the pinnacle of success in America.

There are many times where even I, at certain points in the evening, after a few drinks, can't pronounce my own surname.

At the end of it all, it's my little movie library, and you see aspects of me through that.

I've always been attracted to characters that were interesting to me, and different.

If you feel like you're helping someone else, it helps you feel more in control of your world.

It was like a big family, since so many of us brought our kids. We all went surfing. It was so relaxed and easy.

People in the fashion industry have used the press a lot more than people in the film industry, because you have nothing to sell except for the image: The image is everything.

You check to see the facts are correct where business is concerned but if I read everything that was written about me, I'd end up feeling totally insecure about myself.

A few pounds show a lot on my body. But it's okay. I believe women look good with a bit of softness to them.

I don't like everybody knowing what I'm doing, unless it's related to a movie. I don't like speaking to the press. I never did.

I like to make movies I like to watch.

I choose movies, I never choose roles. I look at the script. I look at the director. I look at the other actors - and then the role.

Everything I do is about women honouring themselves, treating themselves and taking care of themselves.

As long as people want to see me in movies, and as long as I find it interesting, I'll keep working.

Acting and modeling have nothing to do with each other.

I've had two children and no surgery. My body is the result of good genes and a healthy attitude.

I try to meditate every morning. It relaxes me, clears my mind, and sets my day off on the right foot before things get too manic.

It's always been very clear to me that I was going to be a mother and that my purpose in life was to give life.

I don't look at myself in the mirror. I'll flash past a mirror in the morning to check how I'm dressed, that's it.
