WS: I guess you were into fashion growing up
EM: You know what. it was really embarrassing for me. I like fashion and everybody told me I should be a model but on the other side people were always telling me...when I was a kid I was sick skinny... like a chopstick or something and all the time my classmates made fun of me. Then as I grew up ...how they discovered me was ...I was walking down the street and this woman was like..".Ohhh you should do modeling!" So I started thinking...Maybe I don't look like a chopstick. Maybe I look like a cool model so I'm going to do it. I'm going to show you guys.(laughs)
