kate and johnny would've had the most good looking babies ever.

Can you imagine!!! Very very good looking babies!

 

[laisla]

interview from handbag.com. it just seems like theyve pasted together bits of other interviews.

Miss Moss reveals all about stripping off, her new clothing range and having to ditch the fry-ups...

Did your own wardrobe inspire your Topshop collection?
There are elements of certain bits that are ideas, yes.

Is there a lot of pressure on you to make it a success?
There is, because I've never done it before so it is kind of a whole new thing. But I have seen it being done for years and years and years, so I know what changes need to be made.

Did you find it easy stripping off when you were younger?
Not for me it wasn't, it was really embarrassing. I didn't like it at all, I would cry! Now I'll get my t*ts out at any chance… no, I am joking!

Was it hard being so successful at such a young age?
To get all of that attention and to be away from home all the time was hard. I didn't see my friends. I reached a point where I cried a lot and was alone a lot. It was quite terrifying actually.

Do you feel pressure to be role model?
I just do what I want to do, I don't really think about the being-a-role-model thing. I'm so normal, really. They portray me as all these crazy things, and I'm so not like that. I don't have entourages.

What's the most hurtful thing anyone's said about you as a model?
There's been quite a lot! Fashion people can be very bitchy, especially when you're young. People said, 'If you don't take you're clothes off, I won't use you.' When you're young, you're put under a lot of pressure.

Did you find it hard when you were blamed for the waif look?
I have been blamed for everything under the sun. Anorexia was first. Then smoking. Then heroin because I looked like a heroin addict. I just thought it was all bollocks. 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.

When does thin become too thin?
When you look ill. When you're not healthy.

Have you ever dieted?
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!

How did you spring back in to shape so quickly after having Lila?
I worked out in Thailand a bit but I didn't make an intensive effort.

How do you keep fit? Is it true you took pole dancing lessons
I had lessons as it's amazing exercise. It's more fun than going to the gym. It is so hardcore: pulling your body up onto a pole.

What did it feel like to see yourself on the cover of a magazine for the first time?
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.

What make-up couldn't you live without?
Black eye-liner. Always.

What keeps you hooked on modelling? Are you a natural show-off?
I'm not a show-off by nature, but I do think you get into that even though I was shy. That becomes the drug.

What advice would you give to aspiring models?
You have to be yourself, as models come in all sorts of shapes and sizes.

Would you be happy for your daughter to become a model?
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

Thanks Natalea and laisla

 

[BerlinRocks]

I found this, is from few yrs ago(Kate was with Jefferson at the time) some of the questions are amusing, Kates answers are surprising at times and funny+witty.Couldnt post all of it(too many characters)but go to the link and read it in full. Enjoy

http://showstudio.com/projects/kte/kte_start2.html
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?
Kate Moss: Jefferson, Daniel Day Lewis, Frank Sinatra (he was REALLY attractive), Emanuelle, Roman Polanski's, wife Marianne Faithfull

Rob W, Canada: Does fame make it more difficult to find love?
Kate Moss: Yes, definitely.

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...

Katy England, London: Is the Pope a Catholic?
Kate Moss: What about you, Katy?

Simon Foxton, London: What do you find attractive about Jefferson?
Kate Moss: He is the sweetest man I've ever met. Definitely.

Ursula Young, Ullapool/kirsty, london: Has he proposed?
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: I don't know any names!

Meg Matthews, London: What's your favourite cheese?

Kim Sion, Smile Management, London: Have you been down to Argos lately? Which is your favourite branch?
Kate Moss: Last time I went to Argos, it was in Croydon, down Surrey Street Market.

Val Garland, London: What make-up product could you not live without?
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?
Kate Moss: I had a book and it was called 'Lila Says' and I just loved the name. Grace I really loved.

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.

Hilary Semple, Utah: Do you worry about younger models taking your place on the catwalk?
Kate Moss: No. Good luck!

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!

one of my question was in this itw... I was so happy this day... ridiculous, I know...

i believe this was taken at a versace show, but i could be wrong....

 

[impossibleprincess]

yeah, i think it is her collection. she really should have asked for a cut of the takings instead of a huge lump sum...or maybe both.

 

[m4fh]

a little old.. whowhatweardaily

sorry this was a while back, but i'm curious on the guy's opinion!! i always wonder whether men can understand true style and find it sexy. i mean I would have thought the man would think paris looks thebest there because she's showing more... flesh! but maybe not, i just don't know. i don't suppose you still have the article elly9??

 

[elly9]

^ here you go

Disclaimer: I’m a guy. I’m a heterosexual guy (which, I’ve been told, puts me at an immediate disadvantage when it comes to offering a valid opinion or a decision about pretty much anything anywhere anytime). I’m a heterosexual guy who doesn’t know fashion. For example, I couldn’t tell you what a Manolo is. I think it’s some type of shoe that allows one woman’s foot to step on other women’s foot, but I’m not sure. Sounds more like a Pilipino boy band from the eighties. Or better yet, a new size at Starbucks: tall, grande, venti, manolo. Could be, but I digress. The point is I don’t know about labels or trends. I don’t care if its “last season” “this season” or “never in season”—for me there is only good, bad and the ugly. So I am writing as an example of one man in the stagnant pond of millions of other men who have an opinion of something we know very little about. Sort of like our president, but I digress again. Anyway, that’s my disclaimer. Let the opinions begin...

Paris Hilton
Overall, it’s nice to see Paris attempt to look like a lady, even if that “lady” is fishing for a husband in St. Tropez. The dress—with its conservative Hampton-ish pattern and its “gaping-bosom-hole" —works hard to draw desired attention. The anchor on its chain seals the deal (the proverbial nail in the proverbial coffin). Kudos Paris, we’re looking. Overall, the dress works because it’s a conservative style that got twisted (by taking hemline way above the knee and showing acres of cleavage). Now, let us focus on the bottom half of the outfit. This half unfortunately ensnares the entire ensemble and turns Paris into a cast member of “The Real Housewives of Orange County.” I think it’s the shoes. They’re nice, but she looks too done, too put together...too desperate. All in all, it’s an okay outfit, more suitable, however, for yachting than traffic jams at Fred Segal.

Kate Moss
Are those really Kate Moss’s legs? She’s tiny, a veritable Pacino in stature, at least, in my opinion, that’s what those punky low risers do to her. I like the city street get-up, but those jeans...I can’t get beyond them, because they make her legs look so short. Anyway, enough with the jeans. Next, I see red. Red’s good. I like the scarf over the tight biker jacket. Tight biker jackets are good (at least on the lucky thin, like Kate Moss). The belt on the outside is cool. Practical? No. I like the spunky, kinda “wear whatever you find on the floor” look. Her pout is an accessory too. You always see a pout with someone wearing oversized glasses like these. And finally, there’s the nugget. The nugget on her middle finger says “I might dress like I’ve been around the block, and in fact I have...a few times, you see I own this block.”

Sienna Miller.
Oh. I don’t know how to really give an opinion here. I’m sure Sienna is really nice and kind, so I want to be nice and kind too. However, in my opinion, I just don’t think she’s having a good day. I want to be respectful, so I’m going to assume that she absentmindedly left a costume fitting, while still wearing said costume. The costume is for her new role in the serio-comedy loosely based on Angelina Jolie’s life. Sienna plays the nanny (Kitty) who ends up having an affair with the Brad Pitt character and gives birth to twins, whom Angelina adopts and the three live happily ever after with 37 children. The movie’s called “Here Kitty, Kitty, Kitty.” This costume is for the scenes later on in the movie when Sienna begins loosing her mind. She starts “meowing” and wearing children’s clothes on top of her maternity wear. The bag is full of baby formula, that’s why it looks so heavy. [Editor’s Note: We have no idea what he’s talking about either.]

Keira Knightly
I love it when women wear tights pared with boots—it’s one of my favorite combos. Add short shorts and you’ve got a winning foundation able to stave off any criticism one might issue over Keira’s hat selection. A fedora would not be my first choice, but it serves adequately as a disguise. After intense scrutiny, I’ve determined that Keira’s legs work well with this outfit. While her boots seem a little clunky, they clunk with cute. This look is an example, in my opinion, of how flaunting a single attribute can make an outfit. Keira chooses to show off her legs, keeping her torso underexposed in that peacoat-inspired whatchamacallit. She’s revealing without being trashy or too cute aka “cutesy.” I wouldn’t mind if the top fit her better, but she doesn’t highlight it, so it doesn’t really matter. Now all she needs is a six gun and bullet belt.

whowhatweardaily

 

[m4fh]

ahh brilliant, you're a star!!
hmm except i was hoping he'd say something about the boots. i'm suprised he likes the 'wear what you find on the floor' look, but i'm glad! though it depends on the guy i suppose.
anyway, thanks again elly9
xx

 

[elly9]

yeah i was suprised too.. and i also liked sienna's outfit there but he finds it ugly.. anyway everyone's opinion to him/herself
you're welcome honey
