Lily Cole to quit modelling for acting

Lily Cole to quit modelling for actingLondon, Jan 4 - British supermodel Lily Cole wants to quit modelling because now she wants to concentrate full time on acting.

Cole recently put her fashion career on hold to study at Cambridge University and took roles in a string of films including "The Imaginarium Of Dr Parnassus" with the late Heath Ledger.

The 21-year-old is now adamant her days as a full-time model are at an end, because her future lies in Hollywood, reported aceshowbiz. com.

"I'd like to act and not really model so much. I wouldn't want to treat acting as a convenient thing to do now and again. I've been modelling for years and I feel like I've taken out of it what I need to and I'm ready for new things. I've really enjoyed the process of acting and I'd be more inclined to dedicate my time to that," said Cole. (IANS)
