Here is the translation:

 

 

ELLE: You have been very patient during the 12 hours of the shooting, one could sense some tension on you only in the last 1.5 hours.

Barbara: I have to be patient every time, even when we work for 18 hours with L'Oréal. I've got to go through my works with pep /good vibes/,
since this is required from me. However, I've been a bit tired and moody today, in such a case it happens that after a while I want to take control.

 

E: Usually how critical are you with the upshot / outcome?

B: Pretty much, so I don't even like to re-view my photos. But it helps a lot when my agent is there with me, like this time, Balázs Méhész from Icon Model Management. On those occasions, like this time, we review and discuss the nascent photoshoot together. I trust him fully, so I know this way there can be no problem with the upshot / outcome.

 

E: What is the thing you look at first on a photo of yours? What is the tender spot?
B: In case of a full-body photo, it's clear that I look at my shape. If it's a portrait, I look at how round my face is. With this photoshoot, I saw right away that in the morning I had still a sleepy face, but in the afternoon my traits became much more crispier. And of course it's important to have that sparkle in my eyes.

 

E: Modeling is a rather complex profession: photoshoots, film shoots, interviews, representation in events, and, what is out of sight for us: preparations. Which parts would you rather neglect?
B: The sport and the diet. But I think there's a lot of people thinking similarly apart from me. Previously I tried to avoid the events, because the glamour and opulence was somehow too much for me, and everybody seemed to know everybody except me. By now I too have got to know  a lot of people, so I can take the events more. So if there's something in my work that could be omitted, that would be working out and the diet. Or rather only the diet!

 

E: Is it so strict?
B: It's not that it's too strict, but that I love too much the unhealthy dishes. Nowadays I can't eat every day a plateful of Jókai bean soup* or a chicken stew with noodles. Instead of that I have a chicken breast with salad. (* http://anamericaninbudapest.com/?p=4405 )

 

E: At least it is effective. The effects can already be seen.
B: Yeah, but it's still insufficient. There are two months remaining, to attain the intention / reach the proposed goal.

 

E: However, the people of the internet don't pull their punches, the comments below your Instagram-photos never go without vituperative remarks. Do you read comments at all?
B: I do, but I don't care with the more rancorous quips, because I think they evince the poorness in spirit of the commenter. However, when they offered remarks about my shape, that was hurtful for me. Moreover, there are things that affect me in an increasingly bad way. Formerly, when I was connected to a celebrity, I just roared with laughter, but nowadays I don't laugh at all. Then again, as we say, you chose this profession, you knew what it entails, now bear the consequences.

 

E: Then why don't you simply ignore the comments?
B: Because I must see the feedback, this is also an important part of my work. I can even learn from the comments.

 

E: After all, don't you feel yourself overly naked in the crossfire of unceasing criticism?
B: As I have been living in this since the age of 13, it has become a part of my life so that I don't even think about it. Simply and solely I hardened. Should I begin my career now, I tolerated it much less.

 

E: On the other hand, your shape is not only a personal matter now, for example body shaming is a bone of contention of social issues, and it is associated with the body images that the beauty industry conveys. To your mind, do you have any personal responsibility in this regard?
B: In this regard I didn't take sides, and it was deliberate. Once I was invited to ABC channel's "Good Morning America" morning show, and they wanted me to talk about that a real woman is a bit more curvy. Now I have never said something like this, I only said that I accept that I don't look like my 18-year-old self. However I do think that we can do something about it, we can change it a bit, for example we can feed upon more healthy food.

 

E: Being an ideal of young girls, are you aware of the responsibility it involves?
B: For example, I always pay attention to what kind of pictures I post on Instagram: to not post photos with alcohol or a smoking person. I don't want 13-year-old little girls to start to drink or smoke because of this.

 

E: You started your modeling career at the age of 13 , just when your coevals were learning about angiosperms in school and were let go to have a night out at Zöld Pardon* for the first time. What do you think, how early your career entry was? Have you missed out a lot of things during your adolescence?
B: In fact, I missed out a couple of things, for example the camps or their collective holidays... Yet, it is odd if someone at the age of 13 is let to go out to Zöld Pardon. Even now, my parents sometimes tell me what time to get home.

E: Wow! Is parental control so tight?
B: They don't really like when I spend more than two days in the apartment in Budapest, they rather want me to spend more time with them in the one family house. My mom escorted me on almost all my foreign travels until I turned to 18.

 

E: And your old friends' attitude towards your career, what is it like?
B: They have a good laugh at it, they didn't figure that my course of life would be like this. Shall I say, neither did I, it's often the case that I too just laugh at it.

 

E: I've just read that Emese Szász, our Olympic champion of épée fencing, next morning checked up on her medal on the nightstand, just to be sure the whole thing wasn't just a dream. Does it happen with you too, that you ask yourself: "Gawd! What on earth happened to me?"
B: Modeling never was a dream of mine, actually, when I started, I didn't even know what it really means. However, when I got my L'Oréal contract, or when I got to walk the Victoria's Secret show, I did ask myself this question. But one can get accustomed to this too. Shall we say, should I graduate from college all of a sudden now, that certainly would be less believable for me.

 

E: Which subject would be your major, if you could choose anything?
B: Business. Formerly "law" was my answer to this, because that was what I promised to my great-grandma. However, my big sister and I started an enterprise concerned with event management, and that would stand in good stead for this.

 

E: But now you are engaged in your actual career. In this context, do you have new purposes?
B: I have to change something certainly to make a new breakthrough, and to leave behind the "little baby Barbi" image. To make people think of me not like that, but as a sexy woman. Of course it does not mean that I intend to pose in the nude on photos, cause I will never make nude pictures.

 

E: Why? Enikő Mihalik made it with that.
B: She's this type of personality, but I would not like to expose myself this way. And I don't want to do that also because of my currently non-existent boyfriend.

 

E: There's a huge contention though in your profession, Kate Moss once said: "This industry will chew you and spit you out, one has to be on the ball to stay in the game." Do you see it like this?
B: Sure, although I try not to do it like Kate Moss did. (Laughs.) To my mind, it's very important to liaise and maintain good relations, and I think if I stick to my colors and remain genuine, that will appeal to others.

 

E: Your style of clothing alternates though, formerly your look was a bit tomboy-like or hipster-like, and now you accentuate your feminine side. On what does this depend?
B: My steady style has not evolved yet. When I wasn't fully comfortable with my body I was wearing loose t-shirts, and now as my shape is changing I started to wear more feminine, more risqué outfits. And I will turn to 23 soon, I can not remain forever a child by appearance and demeanor!

 

E: If we could look in to two important corners of your apartment, your bathroom cabinet and your wardrobe, which one would be more astonishing for us?
B: Both. I don't even have a bathroom cabinet, I just have dressing cases. And my wardrobe, now you can find every possible thing there.

 

E: During the photoshoot you mentioned that you are in a hurry to go home and wash the laundry. Do you also keep house?
B: Of course I do, I do the washing, I cook, I clean up - I know better pastimes than that though. But for example, I can prepare the potato stew very well according to my friends.

 

E: Is there a compliment that makes it for you?
B: I got all kinds of compliments in the past, but it's never the picking of words that appeals to me. I can't define what is that thing that makes a guy seriously appealing for me, I just feel it when I see him. Such thing happened twice so far, so one can go to any length to no effect if this nondescript feeling of infatuation does not occur.

 

E: I suppose though that you have been given remarkable presents by fans.
B: What do you think of? Flowers? Because I didn't get a diamond jewelry so far. They don't lavish presents on me, neither would I let that happen. I'd like to remain independent and I'd rather always try for frugality. The other day a guy invited me to a restaurant, and he enumerated the fanciest venues in London, whereupon I said let's go to Nando's, which is a popular fast food restaurant.

 

E: You live a very eventful life, are you ever alone?
B: I am, again and again, because of my travels, for example. When abroad, from time to time I get the proposal that "let's rent a hotel room together", and my answer is always the same: thanks pal, I'll be fine on my own.

 

E: Does being on your own mean sometimes that you're lonely?
B: After all, if one choose to be on one's own, that doesn't mean loneliness. You can feel yourself lonely though, if you have been single for 3 years.

 

E: You are an égerie of L'Oréal, but is there a social issue that you would be fain to be an ambassador of?
B: For example, I assisted recently in a mission in Sri Lanka, we built water-tanks where there was no clean drinking water. I participate projects like this at times, it's just that I don't advertise it, for as I see it, many people do it in order to to show up under a more favorable light.

 

E: How significant factor is one's origin in modeling?
B: It doesn't affect too much, but shall we say you're an English person and you get onto the cover of Vogue, then there's more chance that they give you a Burberry campaign too. I got onto the cover of every possible magazine here in Hungary, but abroad almost no one was apprised of that.

 

E: You could afford that you don't sign on work here in Hungary, still, you said yes to the request of Elle Hungary. Why?
B: Indeed, I rarely sign on work at home by now. I sign on those works I consider creative.

 

E: Your 23rd birthday will be in October. Do you already know what to wish for when you snuff out the candles?
B: I do know. You don't have to think of a huge, distant thing, I can even make it in the immediate future.
E: What shall you need to achieve it?
B: Persistence / perseverance.

OMG! Express! That is Francisco Lachowski’s client too! They’ve paired him up with Magdalena Frackowiak and Devon Windsor so far. I hope Barbara is next!

I can't stand the fact people can be so evil doing comments about her weight, or even doing this with other person.

I have no idea. She took those bikini polaroids last time she was in NY and i thought it was for VS casting but she went to LA when the castings were held. Maybe she got a campaign or commercial... or at least i hope
