If you’re having dinner with friends and they’re always on the phone or always texting, it’s just impolite. Unless it’s something important – like someone is in the hospital or something – don’t do it.

I love old-fashioned manners, as long as it’s not forced. I can tell when it’s natural or when someone is just trying to impress me.

I’m not going to fly a million miles with somebody I don’t know.

I was so embarrassed about mispronouncing words. I just knew how to smile.

I just think they’re really insecure about themselves sometimes. I know all the girls, but we all work a lot and don’t have time to hang out together. They’re all really nice; I’ve never had a problem with any model.

My favorite designer is Christian Lacroix, not just because his clothes are amazing and I love them, but because he’s so nice. When I did his fashion show, he was the first one to arrive there and he helped everyone.

You don’t have to have an attitude if you’re famous.

I would like just one time to be on the cover of Italian Vogue.

Be sure what you want and be sure about yourself. Fashion is not just beauty, it’s about good attitude. You have to believe in yourself and be strong.

If one day I have a daughter and my daughter wants to be a model, I would never let her!

I missed out on everything. Sometimes on the street I see teenagers hanging out and going to the movies, going to concerts, and I get so jealous.
ADRIANA LIMA
I’m a teenager, but I’m independent – I have my own apartment, I have my own life. And I think I have learned more than any of those teenagers have in school. I learned to be responsible, leaving my family and coming here alone.

Here in the big city people spend their time thinking about work and about money; they don’t give some value to friendships and it can be depressing.

If you look around Brazil you see pregnant women everywhere. Here you don’t see that as much. There the only thing they do is babies, babies, babies! Especially the poor families.

I’ve never been to the gym. I do nothing.
