I've come to love my height. Taylor [Goldsmith] is a bit shorter than I am, but I'll put on those four-inch heels and be 6'2.

I'm 5-foot-10 now, and I love being a tall woman. I was pretty average until I was 14, and then I went through a Spurt where I grew 4 inches in one summer. At first I felt a little gangly, but now I'm proud.

Height is a big thing, since I'm 5-foot-9. I like to feel protected.
