Here's the first part of my translation. Sorry for any mistakes:

Balenciaga, Alexander McQueen and Valentino - she likes working for them most of all. But it's not only them who cares of her appearance at their shows. Today Anja Rubik is placed in a group of the best 10 models of the World. She moved from native Czestochowa to New York and invited Viva! there. She told us how her road to the top looked like and who's the man she loves.

Let's meet in a place where New York meets Paris. There's a pub in Manhattan where I like eating breakfasts - proposed Anja. It was hard to set the interview's date. One of the most famous Polish models can't predict her schedule. She's usually said day by day (?) what she's going to do in a few hours and where she is going to work. Milan, Paris, London, New York, Rome. She's not tired of this life. Just the opposite. She feels lost when she suddenly gets a few free days. She's running from a corner to corner (?) in her New York's flat. We meet in a day like this, when Anja is not waiting for any photo shooting or a show. She enters her favourite restaurant smiling and realxed. She looks like a girl in a short pink dress and Miu Miu flats. Her beauty attracts the others. Anja brushes her falling to eyes hair aside. A few weeks ago she decided to cut her long hair off and she still can't get used to the new haircut. She orders a plate of oatmeal with fruits and mushrooms. "Did you think that I just drink water with lemon? I will invite you to try my apple-pie one day" - she sais and it's clear that Anja being one of the most famous models in the World is still a modest girl from Czestochowa.
 
She looks.............................................AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!She is so beautiful it makes me want to cry:cry:
 
I bought Viva today and I've just read this interview. I can't say anything bright...it's just very good!! She is AMAZING! Both beautiful and clever.

Interview, Part II

You're 24, you're famous, you live in the heart of Manhattan. Do you remember the day when you realised that you achieved a success?
Anja: I remember and it wasn't after my first show. My agency sent me for a photoshooting to Paris. We were making an editorial for a German's Vogue ad campaign. Somebody called me in the morning saying that I can't forget about a casting for Chloe after the shooting. "All right, all right"- I said and immediately forgot about it. I came back to hotel after the photoshooting, I was going to take a bath and rest. Then I remembered that I should have been in another place. So when I came to the casting, I was breathless and the staff was relaxed, they all thought they had finised their work. When a photographer started taking me photos, everybody was joking and bantering. The next day I found out that I was chosed for that campaign. It was the most important day of my career, but you see that not much depended on me.

Do you think you're lucky?
Anja: I guess so. Since I remember I dreamed about becoming a model. I was excited while watching George Michael's "Too funky" and "Freedom". I knew these songs by heart. Linda Evangelista and Naomi Campbell were goddesses for me. I was talking about it so often that my mother sent my picture to "Uroda" which organised a recruitment for models with D'Vision agency. They liked my picture very much and as a 15-years old girl I went to do fashion shows in Milan. I think that's the luck.

Were you afraid of coming out to a catwalk?
Anja: No. I just knew I would be fine since I started. It was just hard to get used to these terribly high shoes. My mum was cheering me up during the first shows. 6 months later I was invited to Paris for a month and I went alone. I had a lot of great time, but I've always been adapting to new cases (?) very easily. We travelled a lot when I was little. When I was 4, we went to Greece. Then my father, who is a vet, was offered a job in Canada. After that we went to South Africa for four years. That's where I learnt English. Because of my parents I've always had that feeling that the World was standing wide open for me. They also learnt me responsibility. They trusted me and let me do everything. I didn't want to fail, so I never abused the freedom they gave me.
