Maggie first mentioned the series of days when she first entered the modeling world in Japan, about two decades ago. The actor admits, at the time, there was almost nothing anyone could do because the bad guys were given so much power. "I'm grateful, though, that some people have started speaking out, and that's become a threat to the bad guys. Really, as an individual, there's little you can do about it. , because they (the bad guys) can discredit you, not listen to you or ignore you or whatever he wants, but the more people speak up, it becomes impossible deny".

Maggie Q told Salon Talks of America: "Those guys are now in prison, and that's really amazing, because the abuse that took place was so blatant and disgusting. Obviously, there are serious things. More important things were hidden, but frankly, they weren't nice people."

Maggie Q talks about her modeling career in a very straightforward way: "It's an industry so toxic and gross that I would never recommend anyone to get into." She says starting her career in Tokyo taught her the most important thing: Time. The actor said: "I know it sounds petty and unimportant, but the Japanese are fanatical about time management. If you're 30 seconds late - for whatever reason, they will pretend not to see you."

Maggie Q's worst feeling about working in this tough market is her weight: "I remember the modeling agency I worked for. They hung a white board on the wall with their names on it. They weigh you every Friday, they put your weight on the wall, where every number is displayed on it so everyone can see if you're gaining or losing weight. It's like a wall of shame. If you gain 1 kg, everyone knows it, they can see the numbers. Literally, when you walk in the door, the sign immediately catches your eye. you're embarrassed and won't dare to eat, you have an eating disorder or you start to feel really bad about yourself. It's horrible."

Also in the talk with Salon, Maggie Q took the time to talk about her new film, The Protégé, a Martin Campbell production that she co-stars with Samuel L. Jackson and Michael Keaton. ...

In the film, she plays the most skilled contract assassin in the world, taught by her mentor (Jackson takes charge). The actor admitted, many people were worried about her and did not encourage her to perform risky stunts. Still, as someone who is not used to living with wandering worries, she encourages herself to push her boundaries.

In the end, she tried her hand at Hong Kong and then found a way to attack Hollywood. She is best known for the movies Gen-Y Cops, Nikita, Rush Hour 2, Mission: Impossible 3, 80 Days Around the World, Live Free or Die Hard...

Maggie Q said, when she came to Japan, she was very poor: "I'm so poor that I really can't afford food. And I will save up until the weekend to buy fruit because I like it." The actress said that may be one of the reasons why she is always thin. Maggie's managers love this, and they'll say, "Look at Maggie, she's great! Because she's always thin!".

In order to maintain her youthful appearance in her forties, for many years, Maggie Q has often been a vegetarian to purify her body and cook for herself to control food intake.

Maggie Q's menu contains very little fat, no animal meat or eggs, so she supplements the missing nutrients such as protein, iron, vitamins... through natural vegetables, tubers and fruits. . 7X beauty adheres to the rule of eating full at breakfast, eating less at dinner and rarely drinking coffee, alcohol or alcohol.

And to maintain a slim and slim figure every time on screen, Jeannie strictly applies a no-starch diet, no fatty creams, and doesn't eat after 8pm. Over 12 years of maintaining a weight of 47 kg, Jeannie suddenly found her appearance somewhat weak and lifeless, so she no longer puts pressure on herself about having to be thin to be beautiful.

The Vietnamese-born MC currently weighs about 55 kg with a diet of 6 meals a day including 3 main meals and 3 snacks according to the rule of lots of green vegetables, fresh fruits, good protein, good fats and starch.
