“I've never been to the gym. I do nothing.”
“From my hair to my toes to my nails. Everything's fake. Everything! Even my heart is fake.”
“I used to be very shy. When I first started, I had to go to a casting, and I had to go in a bikini. I thought I was too skinny. But I went in and got the job! And that's how I started.”
“My favorite designer is Christian Lacroix, not just because his clothes are amazing and I love them, but because he's so nice. When I did his fashion show, he was the first one to arrive there and he helped everyone.”
“I love old-fashioned manners, as long as it's not forced. I can tell when it's natural or when someone is just trying to impress me.”
“I'm a teenager, but I'm independent - I have my own apartment, I have my own life. And I think I have learned more than any of those teenagers have in school. I learned to be responsible, leaving my family and coming here alone.”
“If you're having dinner with friends and they're always on the phone or always texting, it's just impolite. Unless it's something important - like someone is in the hospital or something - don't do it.”

“I believe love just happens once. You can be mistaken, you can think you are in love, but after a while you discover that you're really not. Real love is different.”

“In Brazil, we don't have Victoria's Secret, and my family are all Victoria's Secret fans, so I usually bring them back some lovely pieces.”
“Don't try to be what you're not. If you're nervous, be nervous. If you're shy, be shy. It's cute.”
“I try to work out as much as I can and, of course, eat healthily. Drinking a lot of water, sweating during your work out is good for you, and of course, chasing after your kids!”
“You don't have to have an attitude if you're famous.”
“When I was young, around 5, I was crying in all the pictures of me. I did not like the flash; it scared me!”
“I just think they're really insecure about themselves sometimes. I know all the girls, but we all work a lot and don't have time to hang out together. They're all really nice; I've never had a problem with any model.”
“If I am not moving I get bored very easily.”
