1 | [on Versace] I was the original model. when Johnny Versace designed the metal dress, back in...1978! |
2 | [on her sobriety & her boob repair] I have had drug and alcohol issues in the past. I'm nervous about doing this operation, sober...without taking pills to calm my nerves and anxiety. |
3 | I wanted to have softer breasts. So I went from Saline to Silicone. Sylvester Stallone paid for those, so I figured, why not, free tits, I'm in! |
4 | [on her boobs] I did American Idol (2002), and I wore something extremely low-cut. And, I dogged the next day, globally, because they zoomed in on my breasts, and you saw...the ridges and the ripples. I should have worn a fucking wet-suit! |
5 | [her response when Terry J. Dubrow suggests using cadaver skin on her boobs is an option] (Janice playfully kicks doctor) NO cadaver skin! No dead bones of ghosts, no serial killers...ladies been in jail...NO! |
6 | [on her The Surreal Life (2003) co-star, Caprice Bourret] Caprice is not a supermodel. She's some girl who developed a fake accent after moving to England, like Madonna. |
7 | Back in the day I was doing runway, editorial, advertising, spokesmodeling, and public appearances. Those are five different categories. Your "Twiggys" and your "Lauren Huttons" weren't doing that. I was Versace's muse, I was Valentino's muse, I was Alaia's muse, Lancetti's muse, Calvin Klein's, Halston's. I could go on and on. |
8 | Get a grip. The idea of the extreme makeover is disturbing. |

17 | She was the fiancée of Sylvester Stallone from December 1993 to July 1994. Sly thought that he was the father of her daughter Savannah, but when he discovered the truth, that the real father of girl was Michael Birnbaum, he left her. |
18 | In her autobiography, "No Lifeguard on Duty", she claims that she was partly responsible for her father's death because she had discarded his heart medication pills, and he had a heart attack that night and died. The statute of limitation for prosecuting Dickinson for the death of her father was up by the time the book was published. |

27 | Her daughter, Savannah Dickinson, was born on February 23, 1994. |
28 | Her father was of English and Scots-Irish (Northern Irish) descent. Her maternal grandparents, Aleksander Pietrzykoski and Julia Malinowski, were Polish. |
29 | Claims to be the first supermodel. However, it is commonly accepted that there are only six supermodels, and the following list does not include her: Claudia Schiffer, Christy Turlington, Cindy Crawford, Naomi Campbell, Elle Macpherson and Linda Evangelista. |
30 | Claims to have coined the term "supermodel" in 1979; however, the term was already in use before her time, such as a 1968 article in Glamour magazine describing Twiggy, Cheryl Tiegs, Veruschka von Lehndorff, Jean Shrimpton and fifteen other top models as "supermodels". This list as well as several other top models of the 1930s to early 1970s have been credited as "supermodels"', which dismisses Janice's claims as her being the "first supermodel" (her career began in late 1970s). |
31 | Sister of model Debbie Dickinson and Alexis Mayer. |
32 | As a young girl, she got involved with sports because she drove her younger sister Debbie to gymnastics practices. Debbie was on the Junior Olympics team and Janice took up swimming, karate and some gymnastics to bide the time while waiting for her. |
