I think there's a misconception where people think that modeling is just about looking beautiful, having a certain look that people like.

I would hear comments like, Oh, Yamato's you guys have it so easy.

I think we're all just brainwashed by Hollywood.

And like all the gossip magazines, I mean, it's hard to get out of it.

There's so many labels in our culture, like plus size and straight size, and I just don't think it's necessary because you walk outside every day and there's so many people and you're not labeling them in your head.

I think it can be hard in the industry in that it's just like straight size plus size.
