Shes at a German talkshow , hallo sontag!

interview:

Freitag, 5. Januar 2007. Es ist viertel vor neun. Model Julia Stegner ist zu Gast bei Eva Herman und Bettina Tietjen, die in einer Stunde wieder im live Cavallo talken. Zuvor hat Julia Stegner noch Zeit für ein Gespräch mit hallo-Sonntag-Redakteur Clemens Niehaus.

Hallo Julia, erst einmal ein "frohes Neues Jahr". Wie hast du denn Weihnachten und Silvester verbracht?

Julia Stegner: Ich hab Weihnachten mit meinen Eltern im Kreis der Familie gefeiert. Auch Silvester, was ich normalerweise in München mit Freunden feiere, hab ich dieses Mal mit meinen Eltern und mit meiner Schwester und deren Freund gefeiert.

Fühlst du dich in München noch zu hause?

Julia Stegner: Ja, natürlich, auf jeden Fall. Ich wohne zwar jetzt in New York, und das ist auch mein Zuhause, aber mein richtiges Zuhause wird immer bei meinen Eltern in München bleiben.

Inwieweit kann man München und New York vergleichen?

Julia Stegner: Das kann man schwer vergleichen. In New York sind die Leute viel offener als in München. Wenn man in München mit seinem Freudeskreis unterwegs, bleibt man auch unter sich, während man in New York immer wieder Leute kennenlernt. Die Menschen dort sind etwas offener, würde ich sagen.

Als Hannoveraner finde ich München schon ziemlich groß und New York ist ja noch viel viel größer...

Julia Stegner: Nee, eigentlich gar nicht. Ich finde New York eigentlich gar nicht so groß. Zumindest Manhattan ist ziemlich überschaubar. Es ist alles sehr einfach zu erlaufen, beziehungsweise mit dem Taxi zu erreichen. Man hat ja dort auch den Straßenbau mit den Vierecken, und das macht es ziemlich einfach sich dort zurechtzufinden. Ich finde, es ist dort viel einfacher irgendwo hinzukommen als in München. Deswegen hab ich nie verstanden, dass alle sagen New York ist so groß. Wahrscheinlich weil es so hoch gebaut ist. Klar, New York ist schon eine beeindruckende Stadt, die ganzen Skyscraper und es ist dort unwahrscheinlich viel los. Man findet dort keine Straße, wo keine Menschen drauf sind. In München gibt es kleine Straßen, wo einem kein Mensch begegnet, das gibt es in New York nicht.

Der Beruf "Model" gilt ja noch immer als Traumjob, wo siehst du die Licht- und die Schattenseiten des Berufes?

Julia Stegner: Es ist bestimmt nicht so ein Traumjob, wie immer alle denken. Gerade Mädels, die das machen wollen denken immer, das wär so glamourös, sie sehen aber dabei nicht die Schattenseiten, die schon dabei sind. Dass man dabei unheimlich viel rumreist, teilweise bin ich einen Monat lang nur unterwegs. Ich hatte das im Oktober oder November. Da war ich komplett unterwegs. Von New York nach Schweden, von Schweden nach Paris, von Paris nach London, dann wieder nach Paris, dann nach LA, dann wieder nach Europa. Und das ist unheimlich anstrengend. Das ist körperlich anstrengend, das ist seelisch anstrengend, und auch der Job ist sehr anstrengend. Das ist ja nicht nur einfach in die Kamera lachen, sondern es sind teilweise Tage wo wir um vier fünf Uhr morgens anfangen und dann bis spät in die Nacht arbeiten. Ich hab mal mit Karl Lagerfeld gearbeitet, da haben wir morgens um acht angefangen und waren am nächsten Tag um neun fertig. Andererseits kommt man natürlich auch viel rum, zu Orten, wo ich sonst nie hingekommen wäre. Obwohl, man sieht von den Orten nicht viel. Oft nur den Flughafen und das Set, wo die Fotos gemacht werden. Und man lernt viele Leute kennen. Und ... (lacht) ... man verdient auch nicht schlecht. Also, ich beschwere mich absolut nicht. Aber es ist eben nicht nur Glamour pur, so wie das immer alle denken.

Du bist ja mittlerweile fast zehn Jahre Model..

Julia Stegner: Naja, nicht ganz. Entdeckt wurde ich mit 14/15. (Julia wurde auf dem Münchner Oktoberfest von einem Scout der Agentur Louisa Models entdeckt, die auch schon Eva Padberg und Elle Macpherson berühmt machte. Anm. d. Red.) Ich hab zwar eine Agentur seit ich 15 bin - jetzt bin ich 22 - aber ich habe, bis ich 18 war, nicht hauptberuflich gemodelt. Bei mir hatte die Schule Priorität. Ich hatte damals nur ab und zu am Wochenende mal einen kleinen Modeljob in München, aber ich wollte zuerst meinen Schulabschluss machen.

Was the school so important for you?

Julia Stegner: Yes! I would never have begun without school-leaving qualification, actually I would want to take my special abitur first, too. But then, the good jobs came, of the Italian Vogue and of the good magazines .. ' and have my parents, my friends and the agency said there you still can your special abitur take, Julia. Who does know whether somebody wants you to see after the special abitur within two years certainly '? And this is also correct, it is a fast-moving business. I then have said to me, ' I ok enter me a limit of six months, if it then does not work I go to school again '. I was lucky, and Gottseidank it has worked.

You come, so as a top model sometimes in temptation to take off?

Julia Stegner: It was actually never so that I have imagined 'I am so terrific'. It I was never lifted and I am alleged also not. But others must judge this. Till now, but my parents and friends have always confirmed that I still have remained quite normal. And I have the feeling also, like me it was before that I am still that way. I also find this very important. I make nothing special. Ok, I make a job which is perhaps a little unusual, which everybody who is in the public does not make. But I am not a doctor, I do not save any human lifes -- there is no reason to take off for me. I have there, and this one I believe also the right education me of enjoyed at home, which has helped me there on the ground hält.

Being not asked any more sometime how important the success is for you and sometimes you are afraid of it?

Julia Stegner: I am already a very ambitious person. But in this business one simply must in front of out looking know that the success will not stop eternally. Just as a model one has an expiration date and one can be no longer in demand tomorrow from today one should always this have in the back of the head .. I would be clear also sadly if it would over be sometime, I would already like to put the conclusion. On the other hand I do not want to make the job eternally, too. I want children, house and dog, live a quite normal life with family sometime. Of course it would be hard if it suddenly were over but I could handle that. I also could be thinking of taking and studying the special abitur. There still are things in my life, I still plan which ..

The model scene has terribly got into disrepute last year, two models have died of malnutrition, there were weight checks in Barcelona and in Italy has an ethic code just which shall protect the health of the models on the catwalks and promote a "healthy fashion" been adopted after that. The models mustn't not be old more youngly and the body stocking Mass index low than 18 after that as a 16 year. What are you under discussion regard you as such measures for sensible?

Julia Stegner: They are welcome to make everyone but no this this is anyway of no use. An age restriction is giving it in Milan now, too, there is this one in Paris already for years. It is said 'everything is child labour less than 16 years' and without a child labour licence the models might work not at all or only little there. And the rules will not be of use. In Paris the Mädels also has worked and the agencies always will find a way. I do not know either how they always do this. I have begun with 18 and I personally would not have wanted to be younger. One needs an improbably strong self-confidence for the job. I think one is simply still very naive with 14 , 15, 16 and simply can not assess some things correctly. In addition, it is often forgotten during the whole discussion but schlcht have young very much that the models are not too thin or lean addicted. Was a large part of the new models from the last year under 16, this which are not developed fully yet were all young girl. You do not have any hips yet, these do not have any bust measurement yet and these do not have any botty yet. See many of them because of this, I do not say everyone, thin out so. However, it will change again, too. One had been the heroin elegantly irritated at that time, this is a phase.

What does this look at you, do you pay attention to your diet very much?

Julia Stegner: Nö, I eat actually quite normally. I like to eat, this is a passion for me. I am not the party walker so, I prefer to go with friends for a beautiful dinner and I then enjoy the meal auch., however, make compensation sports also. In Munich use I have basketball gespiel for eight years, I have made ballet in front of that. I have one I personally exercise coaches with this once in a while and I go to play basketball in summer, if I have time, in New York. In addition, I have 'good genes' as one says so. I could I always wanted to eat what and have not gained weight. I do not live only on salad (laughs).

Do you have a favourite sin what the meal concerns?

Julia Stegner: Naja, it is not a sin for me .. I am a pasta fan although one says carbohydrates are bad for the figure. But I always have loved pasta and I eat pasta almost every day. And I love chocolate and dessert. There is this one with me almost every day.

There is something, what you miss still unknown warst. from your time as you?

Julia Stegner: Friends going to a club to think I miss it and dancing unrestrainedly. I am not the great Weggeherin but I have the feeling, me, if I go out in Munich now, can't go to dance without somebody looking and judging me. I have been away once and everyone has turned round and looked when I came to the club. Find structure this terrifically, however, I then have got into the backmost corner.

How long do you need in the bath until you are ready?

Julia Stegner: Oh, do not be enough at all. This is possible, if, in the evening, I am not away, walks for rather fast, so ten minutes. Therefore 15 to 20 minutes take a shower. I do not carry any make-up privately and I let the hair dry air. I privately do not doll up (laughs so)

Do you already know what you have for orders this year?

Julia Stegner: This no is everything very quickly. I am already lucky if, I know a month before what I do. One usually knows this at the most a week before. I have shot Vogue a cover for the French, I have learned this first on the same day. I usually know it two, three days before, however. This was very difficult for me at the beginning because I am there very 'German' and was very organized and by planned. But I work to get looser (laughs)

Do you have a ready packed grip at home?

Julia Stegner: Which must sometimes if I know, away just again. But otherwise I unpack at once. I hate this if this always looks the suitcase rumsteht . . so as if one were on the jump. I do not feel comfortable either there. But one learns in the course of the time how one packs the suitcase. But I still need for it (laughs too long)

The magazine Stern has made a top ten list of the most important German models.

It was a sensation when a certain Julia Stegner , a rising model from Germany, opened the Paris YSL show in 2003. Today the Munich native now living in NY is a pro having contracts with Hugo Boss, Alberta Ferretti and Costume National. Besides Karolina Kurkova she is supposed to be the best booked model right now.

In contrast to other models in the category tall, blonde and long legged her beauty has something refreshingly unpretentious.
