Mossy, Mossy, Mossy, oh how we love it when you do a bit of talking. Yep, the one and only supermodel Kate Moss has recently completed a new interview with Allure Magazine (the accompanying shoot, naturally, looks amazing) in which she imparts her wisdom on how often to wash your hair to what tan lines are appropriate. Here’s eight news things we’ve learnt about Ms Moss courtesy of Allure…

1. Sometimes the headlines do effect her…

Speaking of the claims which rocked the early part of her career that she was anorexic and taking heroin Kate said, ‘It was horrible, especially the anorexic thing. The heroin, I was like, ‘Oh, it’s ridiculous. I know I don’t do heroin. Just because I wear a bit of black eyeliner that’s smudged….’ But the anorexic thing was a lot more upsetting, to be held responsible for somebody’s illness. I wasn’t anorexic.’

2. She is always professional…

‘At a shoot, I’m really aware of everything,’ Kate explained, ‘When they do makeup, sometimes I can’t see what they’re doing, but I can feel it. I know what I look like, even when I can’t see what they’ve done. I know how to compose myself.’

 3. You wouldn’t catch her dead in a twinset…

‘I try and be a little bit chic. I wouldn’t wear sweatpants. I wouldn’t wear a twinset,’ Kate said, going on to explain her fashion philosophy, ‘With confidence, I think anyone can get a dress and make it their own. I don’t think you should have it off the runway and wear it like they want you to wear it. You know, with their hair and makeup—their woman. I just think it’s boring. You have to make it your own. That’s what fashion is all about.’

4. She once wanted a boob (or as she calls it ‘tit’) job…

Kate said, ‘I didn’t like my flat chest. I was like, ‘Oh, I’m going to have a tit job.’ Can you imagine,’ adding. ‘I used to be so scared about ‘Oh, I don’t want to show my body.’ Now that I’ve shown it, it doesn’t bug me about my moles, or ‘This isn’t big enough’ and ‘That’s not smooth enough.’

5. Her daughter is obsessed with The Devil Wears Prada

Kate revealed that Lila Grace had watched the film ten times, ‘She’s got a desk in her room with a phone…. She puts a little outfit on and picks up the phone: ‘Hello, Miranda Priestly’s office. Can you hold Patrick Demarchelier on the line!’ I died when I heard her do it. So funny. She doesn’t have a clue who it is, but it’s word for word. She wants to be Anne Hathaway.’ We’re with you Lila.

6. Jamie Hince loves her white bum…

In case you were wondering what Kate’s husband Jamie Hince thinks about her tan lines, Kate said, ‘I don’t mind a bikini bottom. My husband likes lines on the bum—men like white bums, like a frame. I don’t do it on the boobs, though—I try not to have a white boob.’

7. She sticks to a simple beauty regime…

Kate describes her make up look as, ‘a bit of blusher—what you call bronzer—a bit of an eye, and an eyelash curler.’ And as for her hair, ‘I use that Moroccanoil stuff, and then I blow-dry it upside down and brush it. Maybe I’ll give it a back-comb at the top. Always clean hair. That’s a must. If in doubt, wash it.’

8. She’s not aware of just how famous she is…

Kate said of her fame, ‘Everyone’s a celebrity. But I’m kind of a celebrity now, so even though I’m not an actress, people know my name. I’m not just a face.’ Kind of a celebrity Only one of the biggest on the planet, we say!
