A Quote by Shanna Moakler

I was told I would never win a pageant because I was too little. But not only did I win, but then when I was told I would never be able to model because I was a pageant girl, I became a model and I was successful at it.

I'm not successful in Hollywood, and I probably would never be. I think Hollywood has such an interesting model for success, and it creates those successful people.
