Spencer Matthews Quotes

I basically work all the time.

I guess I am working pretty much all the time.

People have no clue how demanding my schedule was back in the day. There were times when I might be home for just one or two days a month.

I work almost completely year-round, since I was 18 or 19. It's nine months a year, and then you're out of town, (there are) crazy hours and all of the things that go with filmmaking, which is a pretty all-consuming business, although I'm very blessed to be a part of it.

A lot of people are like, "Oh, it's so much easier to be a supermodel now because you have Instagram. You don't even need an agency anymore." But that's just not true. I still had to go to all the castings, I still had to go meet all the photographers, I still had to do all of that to get to where I am now. There wasn't a step taken out just because I had social media. I still have 12-hour days, I still have even 24-hour days sometimes; I still have to do all those things. We don't work any less hard than the '90s models did when they were young.

I work from mornings to late nights, even on weekends and holidays. I hardly have any free time, let alone time to play other games.

I've been asked whether I have a hobby, and have felt strangely offended that anyone would assume I have the time.

When you grow up, life makes you so busy that you completely lose the excitement around a festival.

When you're doing a television series, unless you really pay attention to your life, it doesn't leave very much time for anything else.

There were a lot of times where I didn't get any shows and even until recently got a lot of kind of negative commentary from social media about my runway walk.

Millionaire models are rare enough; but model millionaires are rarer still!

I have photo shoots or commercials that I do, or things in India. It's usually a seven-day week for me. So physically it does get exhausting.

This is a profession in which how you look dictates whether or not you get work, so a model has to be healthy.

Economics is a slave-driver. No one has free time; no one has any leisure.

I'm still, except for making overseas trips, I'm staying just about as busy as I ever did.

A normal modeling job consists of hair and makeup starting at 5:30 a.m. On location, we shoot until theres no light, then drive home. If were lucky, well have a hotel close to the location, which takes out the driving time. Otherwise, its pretty brutal, from airplane, to car, to job, and back again.

Modeling chose me, I didn't choose modeling.

It's awful to be married to a director! He's always busy, and his jobs last for 18 months. Right now Len's shooting Live Free or Die Hard. He works from 5 A.M. until 11 P.M. I tell him, "If you had told me what it was going to be like when we met, I never would have gotten involved with you!"
