I lived the stuff that Jackie Collins writes about.
I grew up in an abusive home and was told on a daily basis by my father that I would never amount to anything and that I looked like a boy.

I`m addicted to cosmetic surgery!
Without gay men, I am nothing.
I can wrap my legs around my neck.
I was hot and I knew it and it went to my head.
Money is like hormones. It`s just how you feel on any given day.
I`m keeping my acerbic wit completely fueled.
I find the light and work it, work it, work it.

As the saying goes, I want to be the best-looking corpse there is.
In my day, I, being the first supermodel, I hawked everything.

What`s my motto when it comes to money? Don`t put so much emphasis on it!

I grew up studying ballet; I grew up honing my craft.
I borrow bits from everyone.
Photo shoots for underage girls are like letting an ant walk around with honey.
I have to wake up and drink chamomile tea to slow down.
I had to fight like hell to convince people I was beautiful in my own Polish half-breed way.
Beauty opened all the doors; it got me things I didn`t even know I wanted, and things I certainly didn`t deserve.
Celebrity is hawking make-up, cars, everything; it`s shifted.
I have a very vivid imagination.
I`ve been the queen of dysfunction and made every mistake one can make.
Mothers don`t let your daughters grow up to be models unless you`re present.
Every six months I fly to Dallas to get botox and I also get collagen injections.

I was lusted after walking down the streets of New York.
If you think I`m over-the-top, I am.
I was shaped by my mistakes.
I wish I`d gotten sober at a younger age.
I`m able to move like no one else you`ve ever seen in front of a camera.
