Attention nerdy guys: Paulina Porizkova thinks you're hot.

[Shakespeare]

I :loveya: her in this interview!



DH: Are athletes naturally sexy?
PP: Not to me. To me, naturally sexy are the white nerds that sit behind the computers.

DH: You found Steve Colbert attractive.
PP: Oh, my god! He is, he is. He just is sex personified to me.

DH: Help me out here. Define sexy?
PP: "Stephen Colbert!" Look, my idea of sexy – my ideal perfect man ever since I was a kid – would’ve have been Mr. Spock from Star Trek, Chopin, Julius Caesar, Charlie Chaplin. I got kind of close. I got the Vulcan look.

DH: Vulcan’s can be very passionate once the emotional side of them gets revved up.
PP: That to me is terribly appealing – the one that you can’t have. But trying to seduce them? Gosh that’d be fun.

DH: Your novel “A Model Summer” came out a year ago. It sounded very autobiographical to me. Were you trying to tell us about yourself or about the fashion industry or both?
PP: No, I wasn’t trying to say anything at all about myself. I was only trying to paint a real honest picture of what it’s like to be a model. What it’s like to be a very young teenager thrown in a world that’s really not all that conducive to teenagers. That’s all. Because I feel like there really hasn’t been a proper portrait of what it’s really like. This is what it feels like. We kind of know what it looks like – the teenage nymphs romping around the beaches wearing Victoria’s Secret. By the way, I think Victoria’s Secret now is more like what Sports Illustrated Swimsuit used to be. But does anybody really spend the time wondering what (pauses) … People just assume that because you’re beautiful, young and you have money that anything else in your life just has to great. And if it isn’t, well, so what? I’m sure it will be great tomorrow. Like all things that seem one way on the outside, it’s different on the inside. That’s what I wanted to tell. A very honest truth. Had I written a very autobiographical story it wouldn’t have been very truthful. First of all, it would’ve just been my truth. So my heroine in my book is a combination of everything I know, me being just a part of that.

DH: Your life has gone the it’s gone but you once said that your boyfriend thought your true calling was to be a librarian. Is it?
PP: Yeah my boyfriend, now my husband for 24 years and two weeks. If could’ve made close to the same amount of money I made in modeling in a library, man you would not be able to pry me away from there. I would’ve been so happy. My glasses and a bunch of moldy books. That’s what I like.
