Can someone translate what she says about Kendall Jenner at 0:45?

It sounded shady :lol:

First she says that she's pretty and does have the looks to be a model. Then she adds that she's not a professional model (Kasia says something about punctuality and makeup, can't make it out), but wants to be one and that she made her career through her family
 
Here is a translation provided by catherine88

There is a translation. Sorry about my English

- Kasia, you are already more than a decade in the modeling industry. Tell me, how the world has changed?
- With social media all the rules have changed. Now the girls are spotting out of Instagram. Even the agency tells you to set up a profile on Instagram, otherwise it's like you do not exist. I think this is great, because everyone can show up, show who really is. Because before social media, model was just a hanger. No one wondered what she was doing outside work. Now we are more like celebrities.
- You are more present and more familiar ...
Let's talk about Kendall Jenner and her Instagram career. Do you agree that thanks to the popularity of social media sister of Kim Kardashian made a career?
- I suspect that it's more about the family, because they are very famous all over the world, but I have to admit that she is fun, has a predisposition to the model.
- Did you meet her?
- Yes. She'spunctual, sitting quietly when she has make up on. She is a professional model. She wants to be professional, to shut out the tag "I made a career thanks to the family."
- Recently there was some media scandal. According to one of the journalists model should have a pretty face and neat ***.
- I think this is a stereotype and models are not appreciated in Poland. Abroad models are respected, it is normal profession. We are working hard. People think that we are going to work, look nice and that's the end. No! We have to take care of the whole business. You have to worry about finances, about traveling, investments.
- You are businesswoman?
- Yes, not only models.
- A few years ago, you said in an interview that the highest amount that you received for a show that was 14,000 pounds.
- I said so?
- Yes, you said that. Is that rate increase these days?
- Yes... it depends. It is true that we earn more than men.
- Why?
- There is a greater demand for women's things. And it's cool because there are not many professions in which women earn more.
- What is the most profitable? Session, advertising, campaign?
- Campaign. Cosmetics, sunglasses.
- What show was the most important for you?
- I do not know, probably the first one... It was in London. I had flat shoes, but it was also very stressful.
- And the hardest?
- In fact, they are all easy, but sometimes it happens that the shoes that we get are such insane you're afraid for your live.
- But you have never fell?
- No.
- But it happens.
- Sometimes, of course.
- And then what?
- You need to stand up and smile and move on.
- And it is not that the value of the model then falls?
- No, quite the contrary. Increases, because you stand ... on the high fashion catwalk you have to go with a straight face. During the Victoria's Secret show you can really be yourself. You have fun, you play.
- You have stage fright before the Victoria's Secret show?
- Of course, even though we have 2 shows. We have the peace of mind that if during the first show something we do not succeed, then the second show for sure we will come out.
- How the models are selected for the Victoria's Secret show?
- By casting.
- What happens during casting?
- Casting itself is a huge production, because they are camera all over the room. You have your hair and makeup done. Then you go out and talk to people.
- So the girl must not only be beautiful, but have personality?
- Charisma. There are a lot of beautiful girls. I think they have a really tough choice, because all the girls are beautiful and trained.
- There are a lot of legends about model preparation for this show. Please tell me more.
- I must admit that I had more trainings. It's about training. Not the diet.
- So, it's nonsense you do not eat before the show?
- Nonsense, because I believe that no one is able to work, if you're hungry. This is total nonsense that girls who do not eat do not work.
- Without energy ...
- Exactly how a girl who does not eat go to fashion week, - when fashion week is 24 hours a day.
- But still there are such girls.
- Of course, but they do not last longer than a month.
 
Damn, I could've sworn I heard "not" before "professional model", this changed the whole meaning. Guess I get an F for my Polish :D

What are you saying ? She looks with blond hair; Any hair color suits her. She's a chameleon
Happy to see her at Versace. I hope she'll show up for PFW
 
That interview with her was wonderful. Wise words from a veteran in the modeling industry :smile:.
