Interviewer: Anna, we see your face
everywhere these days. With such a busy, schedule,
how do you manage to set priorities?
Model: My personal life comes first,
then there's everything else - like work. I have
my contracts and I do some magazine shoots because
they're what keep it all going. But I've also learned
to say no to certain things.
I: Not everyone's lucky enough to
be able to turn down work.
M: I used to have trouble doing it
- you get pressured a lot. But I've realized that
I have to take a break once in a while.
I: When did you really start to feel
well known?
M: After I did my second Vogue cover,
I realized I'd arrived as a model. But it's really
been the television and especially my Pepsi commercial.
Some people never look at a magazine, but everyone
watches TV.
I: Now you're quite a celebrity yourself.
Just how much do you think the public is entitled
to know about you?
M: Well, even on my show we try to
make fun of the image. I think it's important to
realize that I don't wake up looking like that.
It's after a few hours of hair and makeup and great
lighting - and retouching if I have a pimple. I'm
pretty used to being in the center of activity,
but sometimes I wish I could be just another girl
at the gym working out. People don't need to know
what I eat for breakfast. They need to know that
I work hard. And that I have fat days and ugly days.
I: Having previewed your new exercise
video, we find that hard to believe.
M: Oh, I have to work out. Some models
don't, but I'm not one of them.
I: We hear you were also involved
in the off-camera production.
M: Actually, I executive-produced
it. That was a whole different role for me. I had
the final say on everything from the cover design
to hiring the director. That was great, but it was
also my responsibility if something didn't work
out.
I: Does all the TV and video mean
you're giving up on a film career?
M: No, I would never rule it out.
But I do find that I have an easier time being myself
than playing a role. With acting, I don't know when
I'm good or not. But with TV, I know.
I: People are always curious about
celebrities' behaviour when they're away from the
cameras. What's your "normal" evening
at home like?
M: It depends on which house we're
in. In New York, I'd be in the bathtub - I'm a real
bath person - or reading or talking on the phone.
If we're in the country house, where there's more
room, I'd probably be in the kitchen.
I: Somehow, we just don't picture
you running out to the supermarket to pick up a
few things!
M: I do it. I don't get recognized
as often as you might think - but I certainly don't
go to the grocery store in full hair and makeup.
That's asking for it.
I: Do you have any plans for the future
that we should know about?
M: Well, the video comes out in October,
so I'll be working on promoting that. And I'll be
doing more with MTV and the Fox network - we're
talking about doing a show on women who do really
daring things, like parachuting and mountain climbing.
I have my work with Revlon for a few more years,
too. And of course, we'll eventually think about
starting a family.
