Cindy Crawford is sure she wouldn’t be able to become a supermodel today. The beaty started her career in the early 90 when beaty standards were ‘healthier’ and the models were curvier. Now we see terribly thin girls strutting catwalks and women like Cindy would look out-of place.
She said:
In the year 2009 I wouldn’t have become a supermodel. I look too healthy. There’s one trend after the other. My body with this big bust, normal thighs and toned arms wouldn’t be one of it these days.”
The 43-year-old is a US size 6 while a normal model is size 0. She has quit modelling recently explaining it by the pressure she experiences when people compare her to younger women.
She explained:
I’m more comfortable with myself in the sense that hey, this is who I am now. I guess I appreciate my body for other things – like I was able to give birth to two kids. But at the same time, I am aware my body doesn’t look the same way it did when I was 23. I actually don’t want to feel that pressure. I don’t want to stand next to a 20-year-old on the runway, even if people say you can still do it. It is like, ‘Why would I do that to myself?’ It would just make me depressed.”
The mother-of-two also says she feels all right with ageing.
She told Germany’s Bunte magazine:
Of course I don’t like how my skin gets saggy and that I get more wrinkles, but I do like being in my 40s. You find yourself and you know what you’re able of – apart from being pretty.”
