Evangeline Lilly

Evangeline is impressed by Angelina Jolie’s life and feels she has learnt from her: “The concept of acting in movies, being an international delegate for the UN, adopting children and being a mother is so much responsibility. I have a lot of respect for her. If I could take one item to a desert island with me it would be a child to keep me going. I’ve been working with children for the last ten years in so many different places and I love it. It’s something that drives me. When I was a young girl I used to say I wanted between twelve and twenty kids. Children will always be a huge part of my life.”

Julianne Moore

Julianne has always thought of Meryl Streep as her role model: ”I can remember when Meryl Streep was on the cover of Time magazine when I was in high school, and I said to my dad, ‘I think I want to do this.’ She is just such a great actress. And she’s someone who has managed to have a family, a marriage and a career.”

Karlie Kloss

Karlie aspires to be like legendary super model Christy Turlington: ”My inspiration is Christy Turlington, she’s an icon. After 30 years she’s still working and she’s an example of generosity thanks to her [Every Mother Counts] foundation.”

Martha Hunt

Victoria’s Secret model Martha admires her good friend Taylor Swift: ”Taylor Swift – I can’t say enough good things about her. I admire her so much as a person and as a role model for young women. I think we need more people like [Taylor]; people who want to bring women together and not oversexualise themselves. Plus, she’s talented, and she’s just the best.”

Taylor looks up to Oprah and Angelina Jolie: “If you look at Oprah, she’s made so many people happy over the years. She’s made so much money, but she’s given so much of it away. . . . Same thing with Angelina Jolie. She’s been so productive, but she’s used that position to better other people’s lives, and I think that’s where I’d want to be.”
