I remember when I saw 'X-Men' the first time, I was living in England as an exchange student, and my first boyfriend, who's an Englishman, made me watch the movie... He was very jealous that I liked Hugh Jackman so much. Tao Okamoto boyfriendenglandenglishman share on social
Most of the time, as a model, I feel like I'm just a doll. They control how I should move. Tao Okamoto controldollfeel Change image and share on social
Japanese people are not known for expressing their feelings through singing and dancing, but I like to sing a lot. I don't just sing to myself in the shower. I sing everywhere. Tao Okamoto danceexpressfeeling Change image and share on social
I've always loved fashion and, of course, enjoyed my experiences walking on runways, but I love watching the shows as well! Now I understand more why it's such a big deal for the industry and why people work so hard before and during fashion weeks. It's interesting to see the same things from a different angle.

I started to model because I thought I could use it as an excuse to others, like, 'Yeah, I'm tall because I'm a model.' Tao Okamoto excusemodelstart Change image and share on social

That's my dream: one day, I want to standing on the stage on Broadway. I sing; my dancing is terrible, but I can be trained. That's my dream. That's something I really want to work on. Tao Okamoto broadwaydanceday Change image and share on social
I was living in Paris for, like, a year and a half, and I couldn't speak French, so it was just hard to get a baguette or a pastry or whatever. All the stores close at 6 o'clock, and they're not very into hospitality, so it's not a convenient city. It's so pretty, though, but I was raised in Tokyo, so it was hard to understand.

My character in 'Batman v Superman' isn't supposed to be Japanese, but director Zack Snyder said he'd seen me in 'Wolverine' and had to get me in the film somehow. Hearing that was like music to my ears. Tao Okamoto batmancharacterdirector share on social
I started modeling with a very negative part of me - I didn't really like myself or how I looked because I was very tall for a Japanese girl. Tao Okamoto girljapaneselook Change image and share on social
