LET'S SHADOW THE SPEAKER IN FULL!
So,/ the last question people ask me is,/ "What is it like to be a model?"/ And I think the answer that they're looking for is,/ "If you are a little bit skinnier/ and you have shinier hair,/ you will be so happy/ and fabulous./ And when we're backstage,/ we give an answer that maybe makes it seem like that. We say,/ "It's really amazing to travel,/ and it's amazing to get to work with creative,/ inspired,/ passionate people."/ And those things are true,/ but they're only one half of the story,/ because/ the thing that we never say on camera,/ that I have never said on camera,/ is,/ "I am insecure."/ And I'm insecure/ because/ I have to think about what I look like every day./ And if you ever are wondering,/ you know, "If I have thinner thighs/ and shinier hair,/ will I be happier?"/ you just need to meet a group of models,/ because they have the thinnest thighs,/ the shiniest hair/ and the coolest clothes,/ and they're the most physically insecure women probably on the planet./.
