Doutzen Kroes

Not to offend, but this article is the same as every other interview I've seen
her in on FTV. How she was discovered, how this sudden fame came from
nowhere. And how she "never knew thiis would be like this" blah, blah, blah.
I'm kind of disappointed in this interview. :( Plus, more and more I read
an interview with her the more and more her personality seems so plain and
dry. :unsure: Just my opinion* BUT THIS DOESN'T MEAN I DON'T LOVE DOUTZEN!
:o ^_^ :D Thanks for sharing the article!!!:flower:
 
I understand what you're saying, BodhiTree; however, I think that the reason they all seem similar is because she's being asked alot of the same questions in almost every interview: "How'd you get into modeling? What do you like and don't like about it?" It seems like interviewers are more focused on her career, rather than trying to get to know her as a person. I feel that her true personality has yet to receive the attention it might or might not deserve.


I don't know about you though, but I'd probably start to seem a little boring and plain from repeating my life story over and over again. I'm sure it gets tiring after the hundredth time.:lol:
 
i agree with both of you .;) i always get bored with the same questions.But this is a dutch magazine and her profile is beginning to rise in holland ^_^ and she is getting more and more exposure,so you can expect the same questions over and over again.:yuk: i also think that there is nothing wrong with being plain and boring as you called it?!!:innocent: i think its wrong when models are trying to present thereselfs in way to come across as cool and edgy.:p

You're right....there is nothing wrong with being plain and boring....;)
 
^Agree. I'm boring too!!! LOL

The important thing is she has to be herself in interviews and to be someone else on photoshoot (I mean she has to be a little bit an actress to get what the photographer wants).

well it is almost like the not-cliche beauty are the most greatest models

in my culture [ marokko] if a girl does not have big eyes, long black hair en is white-white of complexion she is in a fact very ugly

i am pleased to see that the non -cliche-maroccain beauty can a model

part 1

She was on the cover of the italian vogue as is doing commercials for loreal.ands walked for some big designers.doutzen kroes is her name.(21)
It is more convient whe she calls you tell Mo from papparazimodels.the modelingagency of doutzen.she is currently in paris,so she will call you when she is on her way to a shoot. and if not she will call you between breaks.you can expect a call bewteen 10 and 12.
11.30
Doutzen calls.She has been working from 8'o clock this moring in a studio outside paris.She is shooting the new commercials for loreal.With a charming frieske accent doutzen says: i actually have only ten minutes...
Oke,then lets put our socks into it.how do you look right now?
Not at all glamourous.For the commercial i wearing alot of makup and to protect my white cloting ,im completly wrapped in towles.You should look at me now!

A month ago you worked with Jonathan Rhys Meyers and Mario testino for a versace shoot.what was that like?
I found it strange to work with an actor you normally only know from the movies.i constantly had to tell myself that it wasnt a movie we were playing.Not that i always have dreamed to work with him ,but thats what you get with celebrities;you realise that they are human too.

You are saying that right now about Jonathan Rhys Meyers ,but people can look at you that way too.do you realise that?
No,not at all.on my way here i met two girls who wanted to take a picture with me and asked for an autograph.i thought that was so unreal.

Actinglessons,Jonathan Rhys Meyers,acting in commercials,acting on the catwalk.are you working towards an actingcareer?
If i was being asked i would consider it.But at this moment im very serious about my modeling.I find it important to focus on one thing.For the lorealcommercial i took actinglessons so that i can make contact with the audience.People need to have the feeling that im talking to them.Whats its going to be like playing in a movie i dont know,but im obviously very curious.Who knows.

You once said that if i knew then ,what i know now ,i wouldnt have started it.
I dont think like that right now.Sometimes, but a lot of the times i think i wouldnt have missed this for in the world.People only see the pretty side of modelling.Nobody sees that i had to start 8 and will finish at 1.30.and that 5 days in a row .And that is for a commercial of three days alot of work.one moment im bummed,like today its my mums birthday and im not able to be with her.the next moment im happy.

You live in NY ,but i assume you are not flying home tonight after work?
No,i started here as a model in 2004 and in those seven months i rented a place in marais paris.And i still have it.sometimes i doubt about wether i should sell it,but its so much fun tocome here and have your own place.i feel more and more at home.i really enjoy going to paris alot more.

part two on its way:flower:
 
part two
Being a model is often being associated with drugs and alcohol.how do you see that?
I personally think that its more of something ten years ago.I have never seen it.oke alcohol but i think its more about your personality.im somebody that really likes to go out.especially dancing.But if i have to work the next day i wont drink a sip.I enjoy the going out part rather than doing the drugs and alcohol.i also look for friend who also thinks like that.I have told myself that i want nothing to do with drugs and it will not be in my enviroment.

If you go out,were do you go?
Clubs.It is so funny to experience the difference between friesland and NY.In NY all the clubowners know exactly who is a model and we dont have to stand in line.In friesland i just stand in line.i like that im being treated like everybody else.

Then one more cliche;do you notice alot of jalousy between models.
no ,i have alot of friends who are also models and we really support eachother.i hangout with Lonneke Engel
and Annemarie van Dijk.We kinda live a SEX and the City life.you know....NY,nice cup of coffee,to the movies,having dinner.i dont feel the competition,everybody has something that they are good at.Sometimes you think "I would have liked that assignment",but something else will always come along.jalously of other girls towards me ,i honestly dont really notice.

But there must be some kind om competition?
sunconsciencely you are always comparing.For example at the VSshow you are surrounded by girls who are thin with beautiful bodies.Then im always comparing.Thats what women do.besides castingagent only book thin girls for their shows.

If you say thin girls i automaticly have to think about anorexia.
If you are going comparing like that i can understand that you are going to be obsessieve about food.Questions like 'Can i still eat that' , '' am i really hungry'' ,'' shall i wait another hour'' , '' what does the food do to me'' come to mind.It is very difficult to completely not think about food.I cant not not eat,that goes against my feeling.

How do you handle it?
I try to eat as healty as possible and to eats small portions.Im very happy with the way i look and as amodel i try to look like a woman where other women can indentify themselfs with.At catwalk shows i sometimes have a difficult time ,because im somebody who is a little more curvy.And the clothes are often made for thin girls.i still get picked by being diffent.

in the meantime you have build up quite a resume.what is ahead?
The top hasnt been reached yet.the higher you get the more difficult it is to stay there.being booked bij Mario Testino is fantastic,but to keep working with him is difficult.one time is fun,but people can forget you very easily.Its still means working very hard.
How are you going to spend the holidays?
First a couple of days in holland.and then i will fly with my parents to NY.my little sister currently studies in NY.We are going to have a real american christmas.i already have the christmas tree.with new year we are going to hawaii.looking for the sun ,becuase its very cold in NY.
And you bofriend Eddy,is he coming too?
No,i have been single again for quite some time now.he has lived with me in NY,where he also was a model.but it wasnt giving him alot of satisfaction.he is back in friesland and is studying.we really do love eachother but maybe its was too soon for a serious relationship

what is the source of the picture , sweetie?
 
Cool article. I like when she talks about Jonathan Rhys-Meyers because I like him!!!

I hope she will stay curvy. I said that because Eva Herzigova was curvy and when she loss some weight, she became more hot than she was. Sadly for the curvy model (and for women in general).

That's cool that she is Anne Marie Van Dijk friend because I like them both!

Thanks Modela for the translation and to your time (for doing it to us). It's very appreciate (by me)

I think cliche-beauty depends on your taste and culture;)
because in Brasil it's actually beautiful NOT too have THAT big eyes and being too white doesn't seem to be populair also..
all white people are on the beach all day long:lol: to get tanned
and the description you just gave isn't our cliche-beauty so I really think it depends

If I think of a not-cliche beauty
I think of models like Lily Cole and Alek Wek..:flower:

but Doutzen is so beautiful
I love her:heart:
