Monica Bellucci, Madame Figaro Interview

In terms of nomadism and separate lives: who looks after the children? ME ! It's me ! ( in French ). Always. Vincent is a loving and very present father, but "la mamma è semper la mamma!" ( the mother is always the mother, editor's note ). Speaking of mamma, how did you view young models Bianca Balti and Bianca Brancolini when you shot the Dolce & Gabbana ad alongside them? You occupied the same place as them in the past... I thought: "My God, my daughter will soon be like them!" She is only 9 years old and she is already so big! Soon she will turn 14, be 1.80m tall and look like these pretty girls. If I feel exploited or used, then it's over And if your daughter tells you that she wants to do modeling or cinema... I would never tell her that it's a difficult world, because implicitly that would mean: "I could, but you, maybe not." She could even do much better than me! (Big laugh.) Deva, the eldest, already speaks four languages and has traveled all over the world. Me, at his age, I had never left my town.
