    If she said, "There's nothing rewarding about modeling. It was a fun opportunity that allowed me to see the world but spiritually and intellectually there is nothing rewarding about the profession at all.", why does she keep doing it?

      i guess she's just not a spiritual or intellectual individual. i'm not surprised. i remember the last time she was on the cover of vogue us, there were a few ignorant comments made by her that were a little controversial to the magazine's readers.

        She has openly stated that she does it to pay the bills- she got her MA from Columbia recently and is working on maternal health issues in underdeveloped nations. I think she was dead on with that comment- models, fashion, high art does nothing but make the world a bit prettier. There is nothing to honorific about parading around in million dollar outfits when there are so many issues relating to inequality. I love her, I think she's a breath of fresh air. The Vogue issue you are talking about, I read it, I didn't see any ignorant comments imo. I thought she was straight forward- I do this to make money, that's about it, my real passion is working to help women, etc.
