your signature: top knots and gap teeth. your coffee order: americano. your go-to magazine: vogue US. your favorite brand: balmain. your ultimate goal: world domination.
I absolutely don't understand: toddlers and tiaras. I've always looked up to: my mother. I'm most likely to feud with: kelly osbourne. I'm starting to pay attention to: my NA sponsor (not really). I've always wanted to hook up with: johhny depp. I wonder what it's like to be: poor.
"have fun and don't care what people think of you."
what, if anything, keeps you grounded?
i really don't understand what's so great about staying grounded? but i suppose a spa day to calm down and chill out never hurt a girl.
would you rather relive your best moment or redo your worst mistake?
i would relive all the best moments, in a heartbeat. all the beautiful places i've been, all the amazing people i've met, all the mind blowing sex i've had...
where's your escape from the city?
any of large, bustling, exciting and exotic city in the world? marrakesh, paris, barcelona, any of those is a nice getaway.
what are you like when you're out of the spotlight?
i don't really like to be out of the spotlight that much, i honestly don't think there's much of a change, i'm the same quinn everywhere i go, what you see is what you get.
how do you think your team would describe working with you?
they'd probably be diplomatic and say it's an adventure. i'm not going to lie and say i'm not a handful, but my team have been around for nearly a decade and they're like family to me. unfortunately, family don't always get along... think of us like the kardashians. we'll fight like crazy but there's always love there.
were there any deciding moments in your career?
my career is all a blur, so not really
any inside details on your latest project?
it took a long time to get this jewellery line off the ground and i'm amazed at the response, i'm glad sticking with something for once has worked out so well for me.
father: david rockefeller jr mother: samantha wills siblings: nil other: the rockefeller family zeppelin (yorkshire terrier).
my 'family' is a pack of jerks. that's what you need to know first and foremost. my dad, once upon a time, was some hoity toity senator and the head jerk of the family. him and my aunt led all the family's trusts and accounts and all that junk. until my dad met my mom in vegas one weekend. she was an showgirl, and stunning of course, and she wasn't stupid. she married the old head rockefeller before he could think twice. of course, he was totally smitten and starstruck by her, and never protested to anything she did. they were good for each other, i talk like she was a gold digger and he was a sucker, but they loved each other. with his wealth and influence, adelaide brookes took hollywood by storm and david rockefeller stepped back from his boring money obsessed lifestyle and they travelled the world. they were the angelina and brad of their time, but the rest of the jerk family hated her from the very beginning. rockefeller's don't marry actresses, let alone vegas showgirls.which is where i come in. because my jerk family hate me, because i am adelaide brookes child, through and through.
i was born in london, but i grew up in new york. my parent's travelled a lot, for movies and for business, but mostly for pleasure. my mom wanted to see the world, and with all their money she could. and they died doing exactly that, which is typical. leaving their child with a nanny for a dirty weekend away, their private jet had mechanical difficulties and crashed into the atlantic ocean. i was eight, so i was sad i guess, but i never really understood just how gone they were until a lot later in life.
i was taken in by my aunt. not the fun, crazy, feminist aunt that distranced herself from her family and politics, but the mean, strict uptight aunt that was now the matriarch of the rockefeller fortune and a pain in my ass. growing up as a little girl, you would probably think i grew up as 18th century royalty. i was expected to dress and act a certain way. i went to etiquette schools, learnt 3 languages, played 2 instruments and took lessons in equestrian, chess and ballet. i dated boys they approved of and hung out with their friends children and had the weight of the rockefeller name and my trust fund hanging over my head, day in day out. and although it might be hard to believe for some (or most), i did everything they asked of me. they weren't my parents, but they looked after me like parents, so i was never going to step a foot out of line or protest in any way. the least i could do was smile at their parties and go along with everything they expected of me.
of course, by the time i was 16 it was all starting to wear thin. i was almost an adult, i should have had the responsibility and space to do as i liked, but they still insisted on choosing my wardrobe, dictating my boyfriends and friendships, choosing the college i attended and deciding on my future. they expected me to be a lawyer! can you imagine? what a joke. at a charity fundraiser i was approached by a scout from IMG and they signed me the very next day. leggy blondes with gappy teeth were the next big thing and i wasn't about to say no to such an opportunity. it was a chance to get out from underneath my aunt's reign. a job of my own, my own income and meeting people eileen wouldn't approve of. even the thought of it was thrilling. and i wasn't wrong. i did a few shoots, i travelled and was invited to after parties that i hadn't dared to go to before and i knew right away that this was were i really fit in. i loved the parties and the atmosphere, the drugs, the alcohol, the men, it was intoxicating and i loved to indulge, so i never held back.
so now it's seven years later, my aunt disowned me publicly from the rest of the rockefeller family 5 years ago, and while i was tempted to take my mother's name, i didn't because i love the idea of keeping the 'rockefeller' name and making her cringe. i don't miss my family, i don't mss them trying to make me something i'm not and i love the life i get to live now. i get to be one part model, one part actress, one part 'it girl' whatever that is, i travel the world at my own leisure, i design fashion as i fancy, i dabble in styling or writing or hosting, whichever moods strikes me. i have nothing tying me down, so i live recklessly and live for the thrill. i indluge my weakness for bad men and cocaine, and i live up to mother's legacy each and everyday by being fabulously wealthy and spending it frivolously.
