Nathalie Simard wants you to know that if you see her on TV and she seems happy, “bubbly,” to use her own word, it’s for a simple reason. “I don’t just look it,” she says. “I am, happy.”

Three quotes from our interview
About Child Stars
“It’s not normal. It just doesn’t make sense. A child has to be in school. That’s life. […] Today, we protect the lives of young children. Because a child cannot know if he really wants to do this. You are not fully developed. Your body is not developed and even less your brain. Your identity is still forming.
About Big Brother Celebrities
“I refused to participate twice, because it’s not me, because I’m not comfortable, because I don’t like lying. I’m not capable, I’m not good with it. I have a lot of difficulty with hypocrisy, I can’t take that on. I know what I want and I know what I don’t want anymore. […] It’s fully paid to participate in this, and at that time, I needed it, but my well-being is priceless.”
About Beauty
“Often, beauty is in imperfection and when it’s too beautiful, sometimes it’s not so beautiful. For me, my story was beautiful for a long time, but it was ugly in yours. Today, I live in truth, authenticity. And people know who I really am.”
