Kate Moss Interview by Guy Trebay


She talked openly about the competition, expressing admiration for the versatile Brazilian beauty Raquel Zimmermann and a hint of lust for the Dutch model Lara Stone. “I think she’s very hot, with her boobs and her teeth,” Ms. Moss said, referring to Ms. Stone’s gaptoothed smile. “Though my husband says she’s not his cup of tea.”

New Interview with Raquel.



SÃO PAULO - It may not have the popularity of Gisele Bündchen, but in the fashion world the top Gaucho Raquel Zimmermann, 26, is celebrated. Famous for their professionalism and versatility, the world's number one model has attracted attention in the lobby of Hotel Fasano in São Paulo, where she is staying until this Thursday, in yet another of his many passages Lightning by Brazil to work. In less than thirty minutes while the interview lasted exclusively to GLOBE, model and DJ Jesus Luz, Madonna's boyfriend, and was seen to be present. Shortly afterwards it was the turn of top Naomi Campbell (in Brazil to star in the campaign of the brand Rosa Morena) bumping into the Brazilian out of the lift and dump over her effusive praise.
- Wow, what a coincidence. I was just saying that you think the best Brazilian model. His versatility is amazing. You are able to become fully - Naomi told anyone who would listen, before hugging Rachel.
It's the kind of compliment that Rachel is starting to get used to hearing. Herself Gisele Bündchen spoke the same as Naomi, passing the crown. But Rachel did not take her too seriously, after all, she said, "Gisele is Gisele."
Rachel arrived in Sao Paulo on Tuesday and parades in Sao Paulo Fashion Week exclusively for Animale late on Wednesday and travels to Paris on Thursday, where a campaign star. But it will take time to feel homesick. She returns soon for a stay of three days, during which the campaign will photograph the same designer carioca.
- The pleasure I feel in being in Brazil is to find people I like - Raquel says, happy to be in such a short period of time to come to your country twice.
With 11 years of career, Rachel is experiencing a period of hard work. Only in 2009, starred in campaigns of brands Marc Jacobs, Fendi, Hugo Boss, Oscar de la Renta, Gucci, and Shiseido, plus numerous essays for magazines "Vogue" American and French. If feels privileged to have a profession that allows you to travel and earn well. But it warns that nothing falls from the sky.
- I arrive on time, I am kind and collaborate with everyone involved, from the photographer to the chambermaid. I'm just one more piece of gear in a dozen people. I'm interested in the brand image you want to spend, the audience you want to reach. For me, being a model is more than having a pretty face - explains simply.
The gaucho lives in New York, and divides her time working between Paris, London and Sao Paulo. Leads a married life with photographer Rui Chilean Sanchez Blanco seven years ago. They started dating in 2001. The top does not issue paper marry past, but plan to have children. But not before 32 years. Want to make the most of good time professional before slowing down.
- I'd be silly to say now 'I'll stop and do something else.' If doing so well, I have to thank and enjoy. In the future, I think slowing the pace of work and study. Not exactly going to college, but of course things that interest me.
Unlike many colleagues, Rachel does not dream to be an actress or presenter. His agent in the United States cited as an example Linda Evangelista, who continues to campaign for 42 years. The Brazilian will not know if that far, but believes the exciting prospect.
- I'm not obsessed with fame. I do not think I model after it has to be something bigger, as an actress, singer and presenter. This is not what will make me happy. I want to study and be a bigger person - says ..
Revenue Beauty Raquel is moderation. No formula preposterous. Where can she exercising outdoors: like running in parks or on the beach. Do not overeat, but not starving. To treat skin and hair, not going beyond normal cleaning, moisturizing and sunscreen.
- I am balanced in all directions. Do not do anything in excess or shortage - teaches, but warns that genetics has always been their ally.
Tall and slim, with classical features of a face, Rachel considers the versatility his main differential. She can metamorphose every campaign or editorial.
- Besides my picture does not get tired, that's great, because not usually be recognized on the streets and lead a normal life. But the fashion market, which is what matters, I know - the account model, which contradicts the theory that only celebrities have time in the fashion world. - I believe there is still room for models.
Topping the list of best models in the world reference site Models.com and about to move one step further, reaching the level of "top icon" next to Gisele Bundchen, Claudia Schiffer and Kate Moss, the gaucho is happy with recognition. But do not dazzle, keeps his foot and the policy of hard work and dedication.
- It was very nice not to have unleashed a career overnight. I had to work for years and I was setting slowly. It was a natural process, nothing has changed.

Original
SÃO PAULO - Ela pode não ter a popularidade de Gisele Bündchen, mas no mundo da moda a top gaúcha Raquel Zimmermann, de 26 anos, é célebre. Famosa por seu profissionalismo e versatilidade, a modelo número um do mundo atraiu atenções no hall do Hotel Fasano, em São Paulo, onde está hospedada até esta quinta-feira, em mais uma de sua muitas passagens relâmpago pelo Brasil para trabalhar. Em menos de trinta minutos, enquanto durou a entrevista dada com exclusividade ao GLOBO, o modelo e DJ Jesus Luz, namorado de Madonna, a viu e foi se apresentar. Pouco depois foi a vez da top Naomi Campbell (no Brasil para estrelar a campanha da marca Morena Rosa) dar de cara com a brasileira ao sair do elevador e despejar sobre ela efusivos elogios.
- Nossa, que coincidência. Estava agora mesmo falando que acho você a melhor modelo brasileira. Sua versatilidade é incrível. Você é capaz de se transformar totalmente - disse Naomi, para quem quisesse ouvir, antes de abraçar Raquel.
É o tipo de elogio que Raquel está começando a se acostumar a ouvir. A própria Gisele Bündchen falou o mesmo que Naomi, passando a coroa. Mas Raquel não a levou muito a sério, afinal, segundo ela, "Gisele é Gisele".
Raquel chegou em São Paulo na terça-feira e desfila na São Paulo Fashion Week com exclusividade para a Animale na noite desta quarta e viaja para Paris na quinta, onde estrela mais uma campanha. Mas não vai dar tempo de sentir saudades. Ela volta em breve para uma estadia de três dias, período em que vai fotografar a campanha da mesma grife carioca.
- O prazer que sinto em estar no Brasil é de encontrar as pessoas que eu gosto - diz Raquel, feliz por poder em tão curto período de tempo vir duas vezes a seu país.
Com 11 anos de carreira, Raquel vive um momento de muito trabalho. Só em 2009, estrelou campanhas das marcas Marc Jacobs, Fendi, Hugo Boss, Oscar de la Renta, Shiseido e Gucci, além de inúmeros ensaios para as revistas "Vogue" americana e francesa. Se considera privilegiada por ter uma profissão que a permite viajar e ganhar bem. Mas avisa que nada cai do céu.
- Chego no horário, sou amável e colaboro com todos os envolvidos, desde o fotógrafo, até a camareira. Sou apenas mais uma peça em uma engrenagem de dezenas de pessoas. Interesso-me pela imagem que a marca quer passar, o público que quer atingir. Para mim, ser modelo é mais do que ter um rosto bonito - explica com simplicidade.
A gaúcha mora em Nova York, e divide seu tempo trabalhando entre Paris, Londres e São Paulo. Leva uma vida de casada com o fotógrafo chileno Rui Sanchez Blanco há sete anos. Começaram a namorar em 2001. A top não faz questão de casar de papel passado, mas planeja ter filhos. Mas não antes dos 32 anos. Quer aproveitar ao máximo o bom momento profissional antes de reduzir o ritmo.
- Seria bobagem eu falar agora 'vou parar e fazer outra coisa'. Se está indo tão bem, tenho que aproveitar e agradecer. No futuro, penso em diminuir o ritmo de trabalho e estudar. Não exatamente fazer uma faculdade, mas cursos de coisas que me interessem.
Ao contrário de muitas colegas de profissão, Raquel não sonha ser atriz ou apresentadora. Sua agente nos Estados Unidos citou como exemplo Linda Evangelista, que continua a fazer campanhas aos 42 anos. A brasileira não sabe se irá tão longe, mas considera a perspectiva animadora.
- Não sou obcecada por fama. Não penso que depois de ser modelo eu tenha que ser algo maior, como atriz, cantora ou apresentadora. Não é isso que vai me deixar feliz. Quero estudar e ser uma pessoa maior - diz..
A receita de beleza de Raquel é moderação. Nenhuma fórmula mirabolante. Sempre que pode, ela se exercita ao ar livre: gosta de correr em parques ou na praia. Não come demais, mas também não passa fome. Para tratar da pele e dos cabelos, não vai além do normal: limpeza, hidratação e filtro solar.
- Sou equilibrada em todos os sentidos. Não faço nada em excesso ou em escassez - ensina, mas avisa que a genética sempre foi sua aliada.
Alta e magra, com um rosto de traços clássicos, Raquel considera a versatilidade seu principal diferencial. Ela consegue se metamorfosear a cada campanha ou editorial.
- Além da minha imagem não cansar, isso é ótimo, pois não costumo ser reconhecida nas ruas e levo uma vida normal. Mas o mercado de moda, que é o que importa, me conhece - conta a modelo, que contradiz a teoria de que só celebridades têm vez no mundo da moda. - Acredito que ainda há lugar para modelos.
No topo da lista de melhores modelos do mundo do site de referência Models.com e prestes a avançar mais um degrau, chegando ao nível de "top icon" ao lado de Gisele Bündchen, Claudia Schiffer e Kate Moss, a gaúcha está feliz com o reconhecimento. Mas não se deslumbra, mantém o pé no chão e a política de muito trabalho e dedicação.
- Foi muito bom não ter deslanchado na carreira de um dia para o outro. Tive que trabalhar durante anos e fui me estabelecendo aos poucos. Foi um processo natural, nada mudou.

^ Lovely! I wonder what magazine it will be for.

So Kate, Naomi, Linda, Gisele and Iman have all praised Raquel. Am I missing anyone else major?
 
^ sorry, I forgot to mention this was part of the Dior jewelry shots in Telva magazine but I'm not sure if they'll print it in a different magazine.

Umm, did Tyra and RuPaul mention anything about her? Hahahaha I forgot about those other supers giving her praise. Can't think of anyone else at the moment. Is there a models praising other models thread up? It would be a nice topic to start if the isn't one yet.

We recently published about a possible exit from the top icon Raquel Zimmermann's modeling agency Ford Models in Sao Paulo, but it was just another rumor, that properly undo here.
The output of the Ford Models Laura Vieira would not change anything in the framework of models that integrate the casting agency. What actually sparked a lot of curiosity about the future of the models that have worked before with Laura.
According to Denise Cespedes, director of Ford Models Brazil, Raquel Zimmermann, as well as the top top Aline Weber remain in the casting agency. "What has been agreed with us, is that Aline Weber have Laura as his agent, but remains in casting Ford. The Raquel continues in our casting normally. "Discloses Denise.
Ford Models is one of the leading modeling agencies in the country, with 22 years of operations in Brazil and 65 in the world.
Currently names like Daiane Conterato, Bruna Tenorio, Carolina Thaler, Isabella Melo, Muriel Beal, Barbara Berger, Yasmin Brunet, Aline Zanella, tayane Lion Soldatti Evandro, Francisco Lachowski, Diego Fragoso, Max Motta, among many others, form the casting of models agency.
