In the columns of the Gala on Wednesday, June 27, Victoria Silvstedt, the former roommate of Melania Trump in Paris, tells how Donald Trump's wife tried to break into modeling. Over 25 years ago, her weight was becoming obsessive.
Hoping to break into modeling, Melania Trump has gone to great lengths. Surely too much sometimes. In the columns of Gala published on Wednesday June 27, his former roommate in Paris, Victoria Silvstedt, recounts his memories with the current American First Lady. At the time, Melania Trump was 22 and Victoria Silvstedt, 17. Respectively from Slovenia and Sweden, the two young women befriended, dreaming of the same job.
To succeed in their supermodel career, both knew that their weight had to be watched closely. To prevent the pounds from climbing on the scales, Melania Trump was ready for anything: "While we lived on the sixth floor, we never took the elevator to better burn calories", recalls the former co-host of The wheel of fortune. And to continue: "One day when we were hungry, we opened cans of tuna. But immediately afterwards, we felt guilty for what seemed to us to be 'carelessness'. Melania then said:' Come on, we are going to run up the stairs so as not to gain weight '. " A "report to abnormal weight", recognizes the bimbo.
Victoria Silvstedt describes a very "hard" universe where bookers don't give gifts. "They did not hesitate to say in front of me that I was too blonde, that I did not have enough breasts (...) I did not have confidence in myself, so I fell into anorexia", she recounts. The current wife of Donald Trump "suffered the same diktats". “I remember she was very in control. Much calmer and more composed than I. At the time, she was quite androgynous and skinny. Her career was going well because she was very photogenic with her cat eyes. But her daily life was punctuated by the iron discipline that it imposed on itself, ”laments the television host.
