Inge de Jong, 14, Holland
V Have you always wanted to be a model?
INGE DE JONG Yeah, when I was a kid, I always used to model for the camera. I really liked the camera, but at first, it didn’t really like me. But I kept going for it, and now I'm here.
V Why do you want to be a model?
IDJ I just want to be different. I want to stand out. If I’m chosen, I want to be chosen not just because of how I look, but because of how I act and who I am. I don’t just want to be like all the other models.
V Besides modeling, what else do you want to do in the future?
IDJ I want to start my own company. If I don’t get to be a model, I want to work at a model agency. I want to be my own boss, start my own agency. I just really want to be work with this.
V What is your favorite subject in school?
IDJ Either history or English. Actually, both.
V What do you like to do now for fun?
IDJ I like to play field hockey. I also just did one lesson of kickboxing. I don’t know when I’ll get to do it again, but I really liked it. I like to go shopping with my friends, and hang out. Just regular things.
V Tell us a little bit about your family.
IDJ I have two older sisters. One is seventeen, and she is also modeling. She’s very pretty. She’s going for some tests in Paris. I would be very happy if we ended up doing the same thing. My other sister is 18, and she’s at university. My dad has his own company. Whenever I have any problems, I always know I can go to him. My mom is also really sweet. I love them.
