But no matter how hard life was, Natalia Vodianova still managed to enrol in a modeling academy, where she learned ladylike behavior and etiquette while going to castings until she caught the eye of a scouting agent from Paris. He told her that a great future was in store for her; all she had to do was learn English in three months, which she did.
