Kate Moss was scared and vulnerable while working with Mark Wahlberg.
During an interview on the Desert Island Discs, the 48-year-old model opened up about her Calvin Klein shoot with the 51-year-old actor.
When Moss was at the beginning of her modeling career, she posed for a campaign with Marky Mark.
Moss told Lauren that the photo shoot was all about him and that she didn’t have the best time working with him.
Moss recalled a photo shoot in which black-and-white photos of a topless Moss were taken next to him.
“He was very macho, and it was all about him. He had a big entourage. I was just this model,” she added.
The host asked Moss if she felt objectified. “Yeah completely. And vulnerable and scared. I think they played on my vulnerability. I was quite young and innocent, Calvin loved that.”
The model explained that she really didn’t feel well leading up to the photo shoot. She said she couldn’t get out of bed for a week or two because of her anxiety.
Moss has spoken out before about her poor experience on the campaign shoot. In an interview with Vanity Fair in 2012, she described the actor as “such a d**head” and “wasn’t very nice”.
“I had a nervous breakdown when I was 17 or 18 when I had to go and work with Marky Mark and Herb Ritts,” she said. “It didn’t feel like me at all.
“I felt really bad about straddling this buff guy. I didn’t like it. I couldn’t get out of bed for two weeks. I thought I was going to die,” she added.
In 2020 he admitted to The Guardian that he was a little rough around the edges at the time. He stated that he and Moss are not on bad terms.
“I wasn’t very…worldly, let’s say that,” he explained. “But I’ve seen her and said hello. I think we saw each other at a concert here and there, we said hi and exchanged pleasantries.”
