Kate Moss - posting requires reading thread rules, see post #1

*Hypnotic* said:
Just to clarify why I said she is ''amazing"....
as in an amazing model, a gorgeous one....:lol:
Hello...it's not like she found a cure for cancer and i'm praising her...
are we forgetting this is a fashion forum?! geez

Good point. And the reason she "looks like every girl on the street" is because every girl on the street has copied her.

In Camera Kate Moss

Phil Bicker, New York: Before modelling, did you have any idea of what you'd like to do?
Kate Moss: I knew I wanted to travel, because my Dad worked in the travel business and I knew I wanted to leave Croydon. I hadn't even thought about what I wanted to do when I left school because I was only 14 when I started modelling.

Charlotte Cotton, Victoria & Albert Museum, London: What did it feel like to see yourself on the cover of The Face in July 1990?
Kate Moss: I was really embarrassed because there were pictures of me topless inside. I was still at school of course, so I got a lot of stick because I was so flat-chested.

Charlotte Wheeler, SHOWstudio: At what point did you realise that your height wasn't going to stand in the way of your success?
Kate Moss: When I started doing shows, because of course, everyone else was taller. I thought, 'if I can do the runway with all these taller girls, then nothing can stand in my way'.

Marianne Faithful, Paris: So Kate - I went through a long period of time where I thought it would never all work out. Wanting the dream to come true, then it changed and the dream became a reality. Have you ever experienced that? Please explain.
Kate Moss: Oh, God, Marianne! I didn't really have a dream where I thought 'Oh, I want to be a star'. It kind of all rolled along and then suddenly, I was in the papers and it was all a bit of a shock. Now I've got the dream because I've got the family and I'm still working. That was my dream always.

Sadie Frost, London: What's been the happiest day of your life?
Kate Moss: Well, you know, I gave birth, so that's definitely got to be up there!

Euan Angus, Galloway: What's your all-time favourite cover featuring yourself?
Kate Moss: Probably now, it's the Face one or the June 1998 Vogue one with the sheepskin.

John Galliano, Paris: My first show in Paris was also your first defile for me in Paris. If I remember you were only 16 years old...How did you feel doing the show with the top supermodels Naomi, Linda and Christy?
Kate Moss: I was so nervous that I couldn't eat all day. The runway was the longest one I've ever seen. I felt like it went on forever and I was up there on my own. The afterwards, we went to watch the video at his office and someone had stolen all the champagne. There was only whisky and I drank so much that I passed out at his dinner. I was supposed to be back at school on Monday morning and I was still in Paris on Wednesday!

Nick Knight, Richmond: Why do you model? Is it a need for love and appraisal? Is it a natural desire to show off? Is it art or is it a drug?
Kate Moss: I wasn't a show-off by nature, but I do think you get into that, even though I was shy. That becomes the drug.

Harold Koda, Costume Institute, Metropolitan Museum, New York: If clothing can be art, has there been one piece of apparel that you have worn which was a transcendent masterwork?
Kate Moss: I have worn things by John Galliano (it was a gypsy skirt with purple tulle with bells all over it and a fox jacket that was unbelievably amazing) in an Annie Leibowitz shoot for American Vogue that were definitely transcendent masterworks.

Joanna Leonard, Teddington: Do you ever look at any of your old campaigns and think: 'that doesn't look anything like me'?
Kate Moss: Yes, all the time.

Ka-Poon Chan, Hong Kong/Luke Rynderman, Sydney/Miche,, France: Which photographer do you most like working with and why?
Kate Moss: They are all different. You get something different out of working with different people, so I wouldn't want to work with one alone.

Geert De Keyser, Belgium: What qualities make a photographer brilliant?
Kate Moss: Light and retouching! Ha!

Mario Testino, London: Am I still your number one as you're certainly still mine?
Kate Moss: Of course, Mario, you'll always be my number one.

Solomon Light, Adelaide/Adam Levett, Toronto: Why do you like shooting with Mario Testino?
Kate Moss: Because we just have the BEST time. We have so much fun!

Daniel Brown, SHOWstudio: Do you let photographers know what you think of their images? Do you bluntly tell them if you don't like an image, or do you have more subtle ways to hint that you're not impressed?
Kate Moss: I say 'I prefer that one'. I don't actually say if I don't like it.

Wong Kar Wai, Hong Kong: What's it like working with Nick Knight?
Kate Moss: It's an experience. It's intense. Always. And you're really working, you can't get off lightly. You can't sail through the day.

Glen Luchford, London: Is Glen Luchford the best photographer you have ever worked with?
Kate Moss: Sorry, Glen! Mario asked first!

Marc, Paris: Would you mind working with a lesser-known photographer?
Kate Moss: No, I woudn't mind at all!

Mert and Marcus, London: Who is your favourite: Mert or Marcus?
Kate Moss: I can't say - they're just both divine! I couldn't pick. I love those boys, they're fantastic.

Marc, Paris: Are there any surprises left in fashion photography for you?
Kate Moss: You can definitely always push it a bit more.

Luke Hahn, Melbourne/Agnes, Hong Kong/OK, Hong Kong/G.Rt De Keyser, Belgium: Define beauty.
Kate Moss: I can only think of Lila. My daughter is the most beautiful thing to me.

Pablo Gimenez Zapiola, Texas: What do you think it is about your appearance exactly that has brought you fame?
Kate Moss: I've no idea. At all.

Juergen Teller, London: Are your nipples really like fighter pilots thumbs?
Kate Moss: My assistant, Fi Fi, says you could hang two wet duffle coats of them with two bottles of Irn-Bru in the pockets.

Peter Lindberg, New York: When you look in the mirror, do you think you see what other people see?
Kate Moss: No, probably not.

Penny Martin, Editor, SHOWstudio: At what stage did it become evident after the publication of the Corinne Day story in the May 1993 issue of British Vogue that you were destined to become the leitmotif in every tabloid discussion of body size? How did you decide to deal with it?
Kate Moss: I just thought it was all bollocks, basically. It was upsetting sometimes, but I was really young and skinny and some girls just are. That was me, I wasn't trying to be anyone else.

Landon Bradley, Vancouver: Why do you think the media chose to pin the debate about body image on you when there are so many other small female celebrities?
Kate Moss: It was just the time. It was a swing from more buxom girls like Cindy Crawford and people were shocked to see what they called a 'waif'. What can you say? How many times can you say 'I'm not anorexic'?

Harvey Allen, Stroud: Have you ever been on a diet?
Kate Moss: After having Lila, I couldn't have my french toast in my fry-up in the morning. I had to watch what I was eating, after having been eating for two!

Igor Mijalkovic, Yugoslavia/Ceri, London: What's the meaning of the heart tattoo on your hand?
Kate Moss: It's personal. It was when I was young and in love.

Zoe, Maidstone/Didi, Italy: Who advises you on your hair? Will you cut it short again?
Kate Moss: No, never again. I had to do it because I'd talked about it for years, but now I'm growing it long again.


Pao, Italy: Who are the 5 most powerful people in fashion industry?
Kate Moss: Anna Wintour, Mario Testino, Bernard Arnault, Tom Ford and in his day, Steven Miesel could make or break a girl

Nicolas Coleridge, Chairman of British Fashion Council, London/Emma, London: If you could only wear three designers for the rest of your life, which would they be?
Kate Moss: John Galliano Alexander McQueen Stella McCartney

Dylan Jones, Editor, GQ, London: What would you wear if we photographed you for the cover of GQ?
Kate Moss: Probably nothing, knowing GQ!

Tom Tesch, Vienna: You are clearly a woman with a strong sense of style. Would you ever consider becoming a fashion editor?
Kate Moss: I have thought about it. Maybe later. I do love clothes.

Craig McDean, New York: You've had so many lenses pointed at you that I hardly know what you're thinking anymore. What's it all about for you now? Do you know you're gorgeous?
Kate Moss: For me now, it's about going to work and creating something new and having fun.

David Bailey, London: Who are the five most attractive and sexy men and women that you've met?

Edward Enninful, London: Which would you rather ride: a limo, a camel or a man?
Kate Moss: A man, of course! What are you like?

Michelle Duguid, SHOWstudio: Corinne Day is on record as saying that after the controversy the 1993 Vogue shoot caused, you cut all ties with her. What was it like working with her again in 2000, after seven years had gone by?
Kate Moss: It was amazing. It was like a day hadn't passed. We had a great time.

Alexander McQueen, London: Do you take it up the ****?
Kate Moss: Lee, you know! I'm not going to tell the whole world! We know you do...

Kate Moss: No, he hasn't.

Paul Bastick, Hanover: Who will design your wedding dress?
Kate Moss: I can't imagine myself in a wedding dress. I have worn them on runways. I did Brides magazine when I was 15! But, I haven't thought about it.

Terry Jones, Editor in Chief & Creative Director, i-D, London: Who first called you 'Kitty'?
Kate Moss: Edwina. (Edward Enninful)

Penny Martin, Editor, SHOWstudio: Where did you learn to pole dance like you did on the Corinne Day documentary?
Kate Moss: I had lessons at Astral, that strip club. It was amazing exercise, we did it for toning as it was more fun than going to the gym. It is so hardcore: pulling your body up onto a pole.

Frieze Magazine, London: What's your favourite work of art featuring you?
Kate Moss: The Lucien Freud painting!

Jose Duran, Barcelona: What's your favourite p*rn film?

Kate Moss: Black eye-liner. Always.

Corinne Day, London: I would imagine Kate would be such a great Mum... I can't wait to give Lila a cuddle! My question to Kate would be: 'how is day to day life with Lila?'
Kate Moss: She wears her bangles that you gave her every day. You've got to come over soon because she is so gorgeous.

Kate Currans, Philomath: What did you crave during your pregnancy?
Kate Moss: Japanese.

Rosie, London/Sofia Kazulkina, USA: Where did the name Lila Grace for your baby daughter come from?

Pat Byrne, Tallaght: Who are Lila's godparents?
Kate Moss: I haven't decided completely.

Guillaume, Toulouse/Joris Eeckhout, Cork: Will motherhood mean you do less modelling?
Kate Moss: I won't be flying around and doing the shows, but I will still be working.

Eugene Souleiman, London: What is it like to have someone to care for other than yourself?
Kate Moss: It's the best feeling in the world.

elle, Brussels: Has the birth of your baby changed the way you look at other women?
Kate Moss: Yes, when you're a mother it definitely changes the way you feel about life in general.

Nic Mulvaney, London/Anna Parker, Essex/Wong Kar Wai, Hong Kong/ANNA, ESSEX: Would you be happy for your daughter to pursue a career in modelling?
Kate Moss: No, I wouldn't want her to be a model. I don't think it's the best industry really for young girls. Unless you're really strong, it can really f*ck you up.

What other musicians would you like to work with?
Kate Moss: No, I only worked with Bobby because I've known him for years and I couldn't turn down the experience of being with him and the band in the studio. I love them.

Guido, London: How do you cope with being a housewife, a modern day icon and a mother? When you retire, will it be to Croydon?
Kate Moss: I'm coping very well at the moment, thank you! I'm not retiring in the near future and when I do, it definitely will not be to Croydon!
 
^ its a transcript of a video interview she did for the site, i havent been able to find the actual video footage, but i love the transcript-she so fab :heart:
 
there was this great clip in the E true hollywood story with kate and johnny in cannes, and there's all this paparazzi around them, loads of bulbs flashing - all very glamourous, and the interviewer, after asking a few questions to johnny, asked kate, "how do you like cannes?" and she just nodded and was like, "it's alright". which i loved...she really didn't care to expand, or give a full answer, or get too excited.
 
all time fav candid!!!

wow the pic of kate and johnny gave me huge goose bumps!
wow. it is so perfect it looks staged. sensational!
 
I don't know if this is too off subject, but does anyone know if Kate and Jade Jagger are still friends? I remember a fabulous pic of Kate on Ibiza in a long gown after staying up all night long at Jade's place... And imagining how much partying those kids did, Kate looked FAB. Does anyone have a pic?
