"I get so much mail from young girls who say, 'I look up to you, you're not as skinny as everyone else, I think you're beautiful.'" she says.A supermodel who feels fat? Welcome to the real world, bitch.
As for how Banks feels about her own 5'10" body – which she says is at 161 lbs. these days, about 30 lbs. heavier than when she landed on the cover of Sports Illustrated's swimsuit issue in 1997 – she says:
"I still feel hot, but every day is different. It's when I put on the jeans that used to fit a year ago and don't fit now and give me the muffin top, that's when I say, 'Damn!' "
But, she adds, "I've made millions of dollars with the body I have, so where's the pain in that? If I was in pain, I would have dieted.
The pain is not there – the pain is someone printing a picture of me and saying those (horrible) things."
