  6. I don't see how they could have disliked that short interview tbh, she didn't say anything that wasn't alreayd said on her recent magazine interviews, or controversial in any ways. What they didn't like about it?

  8. Exaclty, plus it's Adriana we are talking about, not a teenage model at her first interview, she has a long reputation of being polite and nice, other than a professional at speaking with media after her long career, and wouldn't ever tell something negative about anyone in an interview. The fact she conceded she looked "different" in pictures is the more criticism she allowed herself to say, since it won't cast any negative opinion, at least directly, against Patrick. it's not the kind of things a professional celeb would do in public or an interview anyway, to trash her makeup artist, and not something Adriana herself would do, from how we have ever seen her been polite with everyone in 25+ years of career..

    I think so too, maybe who now manages her pr (professionally or amateur-like idk for sue, but lately it seems the latter) asked for that part to be included on purpose as a way to deal with the situation.

    The interview: Iconic supermodel Adriana Lima discusses motherhood, social media trolls and creating a space for mature women within the fashion industry – and just like the heritage Cartier Collection pieces Adriana wears, she only gets better with age It’s fair to say that 2023 has been somewhat of a comeback year for the supermodels of the ’90s and noughties. They’ve enjoyed space in documentaries on streaming channels, group fashion magazine covers, jointly walking the runways again and grabbing designer brand campaigns from the new pretenders. And in the midst of the supers who are making a return is one of the nicest, most down-toearth people in fashion – who also happens to be one of the most beautiful women in the world: Adriana Lima… although she makes it clear that this is just the warm-up to her renaissance. “My true comeback will be in 2024,” she laughs. The model and actress, who is probably most famous for being the longest-running Victoria’s Secret Angel in the world, is now 42-years-old and a mother of five, but is still giving the newbies a run for their money after being named as the face of Victoria’s Secret’s Heavenly Eau de Parfum in April and also starring in the brand’s recent Icons lingerie campaign alongside Gisele Bündchen, Naomi Campbell and Candice Swanepoel. “I feel like there has been a return of the supers,” agrees Adriana as we chat about her recent campaigns. “I’ve been seeing not only supermodels from the 2000s but also from the ’80s and ’90s who have been working a lot lately and I think it’s wonderful to see.” She goes on to explain why that might be. “I think each of the supermodels has a different character and persona, and I think that’s what makes a difference because you can see those distinct personas when they are in photoshoots and on the runaway. They are easily remembered for that. I think that makes it easier for brands to sell because people connect to you, they connect to that distinct personality that you have.” And it seems that brands are finally catching on that consumers want to see women of all age brackets in the limelight. “These supermodels are in different stages of their lives and are being celebrated for being mature women, which is refreshing to see because, as we know, the traditional fashion models usually don’t last that long. But I think that scenario is finishing. I think that as women, we are being celebrated in every stage of our life.” Adriana has a vested interest in wanting that narrative to be true – and that extends beyond her own alleged ‘sell-by date’. “I’m happy to see that change because one of my daughters wants to be a model,” she explains of her eldest, Valentina, aged 14. “And I felt very sad that she, as a model, would be celebrated for only a certain time frame of her life. I think that every stage is a beautiful time and I’m loving that fashion is now embracing that.” So, does she think society is finally changing? Are we moving away from the conventional idea of what models and indeed women should look like? Are we leaving behind the ‘thin, pretty and young’ traditional beauty ideals that have dominated much of her lifetime and career? Adriana is not so sure. “I don’t think we’re [totally] moving away from ‘thin, young and beautiful’; I think that the world is creating space for everyone – and everyone with their uniqueness is being celebrated. I think there is beauty in every stage of a woman and man’s life and it’s wonderful to see that there can be space for everybody.” This does feel like an incredibly positive and gracious attitude from Adriana, considering the onslaught of scrutiny and judgement she faced just a few weeks ago when she stepped out to attend The Hunger Games: The Ballad Of Songbirds & Snakes premiere. Social media comments speculated that her face ‘looked altered’ and that she’d had a facelift or fillers. Others suggested she looked ‘all swollen’ and ‘much older’ than the last time she’d been seen in public. Mainstream media and web publications joined in the beauty-shaming circus. Adriana gently retaliated, posting a bare-faced picture on Instagram with the caption: ‘The face of a tired mom of one teenage girl, two pre-teens, one active boy, a one-year-old learning to walk, and three dogs… thanks for your concern’. “It did not bother me at all,” laughs Adriana. “I’m very strong that way, and honestly, I looked at myself before I stepped out and I was feeling great. I was with my children, and they looked at me and were like, ‘Mom! You look so beautiful!’ Adriana does admit that she was surprised to see how she looked in the pictures, though. “I was in shock when I saw them. I was like ‘that’s not me’. Everything was strange because I don’t see myself like that. I still don’t see myself like that… you can see yourself differently. I didn’t get offended or anything, though – I was laughing. The point is, I am not 16 years old. I started modelling at 16 but I will never be 16 again. I’m 42 and I’m the happiest I’ve been; the happiest with myself. I embrace my age and I will not change for anyone.” With that said, Adriana, who has worked on a number of female empowerment projects, is aware of how it could affect her kids. “My concern about this is not for me, it’s for my children because they were with me, they saw me and then this stuff comes out. I don’t want them to feel the pressure to look a certain way because of other people. If they do that to me, how will they be safe? And the truth is, I don’t think anyone is safe because people are always criticising,” she laments. Adriana Lima On Motherhood and Her Children The model and TV host’s concern for her blended family is at the heart of everything she does and feels. Mother to daughters Valentina, 14 and Sienna, 11 from her marriage to ex-husband Marko Jarić, son Cyan who turned one this August with partner Andre Lemmers and his two children Miah and Lupo from a previous relationship. This makes for a busy household, so how does she cope? “I take it day by day,” she confesses. “Every day is a different story. There is no manual for motherhood. As the kids grow up, they’re going towards different stages of their life. I still have a baby and I have a teenager so every day you deal with different things. I wish I could tell you something magical, some advice, but I just take it a step at a time.” And Adriana’s everyday life is not that out of the ordinary. “I do live quite a normal life and I do everything that a normal person would do. When you’re a model, people think that you’re always going to be dressed up with your hair and make-up done in designer clothes – and that’s not me. When I’m going round the supermarket or dropping my kids at school, people see me but they’re not sure it’s actually me. They get confused,” she laughs. “I like my everyday life, I do everything that someone ‘normal’ would do: drive the kids to school, pick them up, go to the supermarket, walk the dog… just simple things and I love it.” Time off during the pandemic and then being at home pre and post having her youngest child has meant spending most of her time at home in Miami, prioritising motherhood – even if it gets in the way of her own hobbies, exercise and self-care time. Adriana was known for her almost regimental fitness and diet regimes in the lead-up to Victoria’s Secret shows. She’s been boxing since the age of 19 and is an advocate for meditation – but all that has to take somewhat of a backseat these days. “Ok, I’m really struggling,” she laughs. “With children and a baby, it’s hard to be at the gym every day, even though I really do love the gym. Generally, I’ve been doing a lot of cardio like jumping rope and running and also started adding weights which I didn’t do before, and then I’ll do boxing say twice a week for 20 minutes. I try to go to the gym six times a week but I’m not very successful, I really try but with the children it’s crazy. The other day I had my session with my trainer set up and then the school called me to pick up my daughter because she didn’t feel well and then the other one another day, so it’s tough.” Could she not let someone else pick up the children? “On no, I really love it, I love doing everything with them, they’re growing up so quickly. I look at my 14-year-old and I look at pictures of when she was a baby – it’s happened in the blink of an eye. It’s funny because I didn’t want children, but then I changed and now I want more kids!” I ask her about her down time, if indeed there is any. “I used to meditate a lot but now there’s no time. I barely have time to go out for dinner with my husband. So my meditation is going to the bathroom for five minutes and locking myself in and praying that my kids are not going to be knocking at my door and asking me for something they need,” she smiles. “I do love watching old Hollywood movies and Italian classics like La Dolce Vita with Anita Ekberg, I’m also obsessed with Lauren Bacall and I use those films for inspiration when it comes to fashion but I only really get to watch films on the plane these days!” And is fashion still a big thing for her? “Fashion is in my blood,” says Adriana, who has worked with brands including Versace, Prada, Loewe and Louis Vuitton. “When it comes to designers, I love Tamara Ralph. I think she’s so elegant and I saw her comeback this year. I was so excited to see all her designs. I’m also waiting for a comeback from Riccardo Tisci. I love him, I think he’s so creative and so different, and I can’t wait to see his return.” Despite the business of motherhood, Adriana has managed to find time for work, be that modelling, documentary-making, humanitarian work or in her role as a FIFA fan ambassador, which the self-proclaimed lover of the sport is continuing with into next year. “I can’t share a lot of details of the work I’ve done with FIFA yet but I can say that there wasn’t one single trip that I did with them where I wasn’t involved in a charity. We went to visit a few hospitals, different countries, different schools and we went to visit a particular place that really caught my attention.” Adriana, who worked on the FIFA: A Love Letter to Rwanda short earlier this year, can’t share the details of the latest project but tells us the story of meeting a humanitarian worker who has rescued 100 young children from politically unstable countries and is providing them with education and a place to stay. She’s passionate about being able to tell this woman’s story in detail soon. So what else can we expect from the woman who was named Victoria’s Secret’s most-valuable model? “A lot of things happened this year for me, but I wouldn’t call it my comeback yet. I think my official comeback will actually be next year,” she reveals. “You guys will see that. That’s all I can say for now!” We can’t wait. As many of Adriana’s fans have exclaimed: The queen is back.
