In her interview, the brunette stunner opens up about being told to lose weight when she first started modeling. “When I first started, I was 5-foot-10 and weighed 100 pounds at the most! I was tiny,” she recalls. “But I had an agent who said, ‘You need to lose weight from your hips.’ I was 16 and didn’t know how to process that. It kind of blew my mind. I knew it was outrageous.”
