Looking back on the interview now, Shields describes it as "practically criminal because it's not journalism" and finds it "maddening". Walters asked Shields about her measurements and about her mother, who was accused of profiting from s*xualizing her daughter at a young age.
Shields also spoke about her famous Calvin Klein jeans campaign, which received both praise and criticism. She admits to being naive about the s*xual innuendos in the ad and says she didn't think it was about underwear or of a s*xual nature. Shields is currently working on a documentary about her early career, much like filmmakers have done with Britney Spears and Brittany Murphy.
Despite the controversy surrounding the interview and campaign, Shields believes that the campaign was successful and that the controversy ultimately backfired. Shields' story is far from over and it seems that there are more chapters to come.
