If you knew then, what you know now… what would you tell yourself?
In her BBC Radio 4 podcast Young Again, journalist and broadcaster Kirsty Young takes her guests back to meet their younger selves and asks the question: if you knew then what you know now, what would you have done differently?
Linda’s mother was keen that she take part in lots of activities outside of school like ice skating and figure skating when the two of them spotted an advert for a local modelling school. “We did and he took my pictures and he sent them to New York. And they were very interested in me,” says Linda with typical understatement.“This is a crazy story,” says Linda remembering an early job in Italy. “It was at a house outside of Milan and there were lots of people there and lots of models. And then at night these parties would start. And I remember seeing cocaine for the first time,” recalls Linda.
“What you saw was what you got. People were holding reflectors to take care of under eye bags. And we were pinned to death and the wind machines were going.” “I've never been myself even crazy about breasts. I find that they look cumbersome. I love my new, little, tiny 180cc [the size of the gel implant] breasts that I never have to wear a bra, so I'll never have the bra flap hanging out,” says Linda with a laugh.6. Does the $10,000 quote still haunt her?
Kirsty replies: “If a famous footballer had said, ‘Well, you know, I don't go on the pitch for less than... that's just the way it is.’ People would have thought, ‘Well, clever you.’”
