Cara Delevingne Tells 'Elle' That 'Emotions Should Be Put First'!

Cara Delevingne Tells 'Elle' That 'Emotions Should Be Put First'!

Cara Delevingne looks absolutely stunning on the cover of Elle‘s September 2016 issue.

Here’s what the 23-year-old Suicide Squad star had to share with the mag:

How taking up yoga saved her life and helped her turn everything around: “For me, yoga’s the only way I can really feel things and check how I am. Because there is always pain somewhere, even if it’s completely irrational pain, and it’s always good to find it and get it out. If I don’t cry pretty much every day I will hold it in, and it will manifest in me in things that are destructive, like my skin.”

On why she opened up about her own struggles on social media and in interviews after young fans started sharing theirs with her: “I couldn’t just sit there and listen to these girls, and boys, too, but usually girls, say this stuff, about bullying, about their sexuality, depression, and guilt and suicidal thoughts and just all of it, without being like, ‘I have been through that, and it’s going to be okay.’ If I can help a teenager go through a better time than they should be, then I am going to f–king do that. I mean, f–king being a teenager suuuccccks. And I somehow came through the other end.”

On Suicide Squad co-star Will Smith putting ‘emotions first’ and why crying is the most challenging part of acting: “I don’t think I have ever, ever cried in front of more than one person ever, ever because I grew up in this very ‘Emotion is weak, head up, move on, onward and upward’ kind of way. Which is not healthy. Will Smith was telling me he brought up his kids to put their emotions first, and when I heard that, I was just like, ‘Oh my God, that sounds like a fairy tale.’ Because emotions should be put first. It’s the most important thing. No, I’m not going to start crying.”
