What’s been the best part of the tour for the supermodel? Meeting the fans who have been inspired by her!
“I don’t do like a typical signing, I’ve been doing symposiums or gatherings. A lot of people are calling it teen Tony Robbins,” she laughs.
“It’s just so touching some girls come into my arms and are crying about their insecurities. There was one girl at Barnes & Noble Union Square who just started crying, she could hardly talk because she said her forehead was big and she feels so insecure about it. But me having a big forehead helps her every single day. But her hair was slicked back in a bun so I was like you’re not that insecure about it!”
