Cara Delevingne has admitted she ‘doesn’t think English people like her’ as she reflected on why her London shows were the hardest tickets to sell.
The model, 33, is currently pursuing her new singing career and has finished the UK and European leg of her first headline tour.
With her album due for release later this year, Cara has revealed it was in fact in her hometown of London where the tickets were hardest to sell.
She joked: ‘I don’t think English people like me much…’ before insinuating how British society loves to see people fail.
‘That’s why I can’t stop coming back and trying. It’s not to prove myself. Who am I proving myself for? But maybe there is a part of me just trying to make my parents proud — and I see England as my parents, you know?’
After originally making a name for herself as a model, in 2015 she left London to live in Los Angeles and said goodbye to the modelling world.
Cara Delevingne has admitted she ‘doesn’t think English people like her’ as she recalled how she hated herself and left the UK to ‘break free’ in a new interview on Sunday
Reflecting on the decision she told The Times: ‘I wanted to reinvent myself. I had to break free, whether from holding myself back or from how people saw me. I just hated myself so much and I was just so fragile. I didn’t have a thick enough skin for it then — but I do now.’
And Cara has certainly landed back in the spotlight with a bang after shooting her raciest magazine cover to date for Playboy last week.
The star put on a very racy display as she wore red heart-shaped pasties in one shot, before covering her modesty in foam.
Cara went topless and modelled a series of sexy lingerie sets in the sizzling photoshoot.
The actress, who was the first lesbian to grace Playboy magazine, declared: ‘It’s so fun being naked’, as she reflected on the shoot on Friday.
She added: ‘I love the sense in the freedom of owning my sexuality and owning my body and I think for the first time instead of getting naked for a brand or an editorial, this felt more like my choice.
‘Like, of course it’s always been my choice, but it felt like something so liberating. That to me is sexy.
‘I was texting my girlfriend earlier and I was sending her the photos and she was like “Oh my god, you look so pretty”. And I was like “But I’m just a silly baby pretending to be a sexy lady and sometimes that’s how it feels.
Reflecting on the decision to leave the UK and modelling she said : ‘I just hated myself so much and I was just so fragile.’ (pictured at her London show last month)
‘You know, everyone has that kind of polarity and dichotomy and so kind of playing within that and still having fun while trying on this, like I’m a sexy woman because you can be all of those things.’
Playboy detailed: ‘In her prime, Delevingne is also making history. She’s the first out lesbian woman to appear on the print cover of Playboy…
‘To mark the occasion, she also dons the iconic Bunny Suit, becoming the first supermodel to do so for the magazine since Kate Moss in 2014.’
In the shoot, Cara was lighting up a cigarette with a match while pulling a smoldering pose and showing off her tattoos along her arms.
Another shot saw the musician prowling towards the camera in red lingerie while her image was displayed on a vast screen alongside.
Cara was sending temperatures soaring in the snaps, as she bowed into the sizzling nature of the saucy bible – with very little left to the imagination.
Another image saw her slip into the classic Playboy ensemble comprising a corset, bowtie, bunny ears and cuffs.
She gave a further nod to the Playboy look of days gone by as an image gave a full shot of her bunnytailed bottom, cuffs and Playboy cufflinks.
