Emily Ratajkowski insists she never wanted to be famous.
The model, actress and author, 32, shot to fame after strutting topless in Robin Thicke’s music video for his 2013 hit ‘Blurred Lines’, and has now said she only started modelling to save cash to fund her creative ambitions.
She told Glamour UK: “I didn’t want to be famous. I had no plans. I wasn’t thinking about a career, I was thinking about saving money.
“But the saving money was to be able to do what I actually wanted to do, which was make things, basically.
“I saw my parents, they are both creatives, but they had day jobs, so that was sort of how I saw life working.”
Before finding fame, the ‘Gone Girl’ actress studied art at UCLA for one year, before dropping out to pursue modelling full-time, and mainly did lingerie, catalogue and swimwear shoots.
Emily also opened up Glamour about how she wants the public to know what’s going on in her private life as it means she gets to set the “record straight” about what she’s doing.
