    Helena Christensen's quotes

  • Helena Christensen photo
  • When you are modelling, you are creating a picture, a still life, perhaps something like a silent film. You convey emotion but you are only using your body.
  • I had never done any serious acting before, but I decided that it was a chance that I should take.
  • I've never wanted to do anything other than model. I'm best at selling lipstick. Acting and television work just don't appeal to me.
  • This was all very new to me and I did not want to ruin his film! So we worked hard on that basis of confidence that is needed to collaborate comfortably.
  • There are particular images that I like. Allegro is composed of a series of still life photographs that has been put to speed. There is so much care that has gone into the composition of the cinematography.
  • When on the set of a film, you have to play natural for entire scenes in a very unnatural environment. You have to express emotions and interact with other actors and also use your voice.
  • People forget that I'm still working. I model. I do advertising campaigns. It's not like I'm sat at home twiddling my thumbs.
  • I look at other women. When I'm at a party, I sometimes say, Look at her, she's got fantastic breasts. We can sit all night talking about girls.
  • Cleaning is the best thing for the human mind and body. Seeing all the dirt being sucked up is an instant gratification!
  • In modelling, there is no point in trying to prove you have a brain, so why even bother? I'd sooner save the energy for something more meaningful.
