“When I go out on the runway, I can feel the audience vibrate.”

“My kids do very extraordinary things that make sense.”

“I always said, as a dietician, age doesn't matter. As long as you're doing good research and helping people eat well, it doesn't matter what age you are.”

“I had two brilliant children and one genius. Elon could figure out things when he was very young and was always advanced for his age. He could hold a conversation about something that was way beyond his years, and he read voraciously.”

“I like to tweet out nutrition research because I did my bachelor of science degree in dietetics.”

“I never told my kids, 'You've got to work hard.' I just worked hard, and they followed my example.”

“I'm always just happy to see when models are working hard, doing well, and really, above all else, doing good things. I love when they work for charities or inspire education. Look at Karlie Kloss promoting education - that's wonderful.”

“Looking back, letting my hair go natural was an amazing decision because I started getting major ad campaigns. I also signed with agencies in Europe and travelled to many different cities, which I loved. People would stop me in the street and say they loved my hair!”

“My mother worked as an artist until she was 96.”

“I love smokey eyes and glossy lips.”

“I just wanted to be the best dietician in the world - but then modeling took over.”

“I don't take supplements - I get nutrition from food.”

“I follow science and common sense. Science says you should eat a variety of foods and eat more fruits and vegetables - I do that.”

“You have to know your trigger foods, and for me, it's sweet foods.”

“I don't like exercise. I'm not good at it.”

“At 15, I was modeling. I had to do my own hair and makeup. I also made my own clothes because I grew up in South Africa, where fashion was six months behind because of the seasons.”

“I'm considered a huge model because I'm a size six. But... I had a standard body size for catalogues.”

“You have to stay active; it keeps the bones flexible.”

“Eating well gives me a lot of my energy.”

“I was a perfect mother.”
