Paulina Porizkova MBTI Personality Type

Personality

What personality type is Paulina Porizkova? Paulina Porizkova is an ENTP personality type in MBTI, 6w7 - sx/so - in Enneagram, in Big 5, EIE in Socionics.

Ne is apparent. There's her type of humor, then how she answers indefinite questions by stating possibilities, and talks figuratively. In interviews, you can see that no matter how miniscule some things she gets asked are, she would still take some space to think about them first, then come up with answers that sound like she really knows the inner workings of what she's speaking of—as if she's breaking things apart to understand and articulate in her mind. You can see this in her statements all the time, and she's always up to explain. Very Ti. She's receptive and aware of the person she converses with and the reactions of people, which show her Fe, but even then, her independent opinions at the moment take precedence to be expressed. When addressing if it got her in trouble saying what Letterman described as "some pretty startling things about being a model," she said, "Actually, no. I thought it would, but it didn't. I'm very happy about that." This one isn't huge, but she pointed out liking Boston, describing it as the most beautiful American city she's been in, because it resembles Europe, reminding her of home, which attributes to Si. A lot of Se-users care a bit less about that. During a more recent interview last year, she self-admitted to having been judgmental in the past, specifically by judging those who did stuff she didn't and thought were unnecessary and meaningless (like injecting and changing their looks, etc). Ti-parent + Fi-trickster. You can pick out how much her Fe-child has considerably developed now that she's older. Enneagram-wise, she behaves like an 8. You can pull up any interview of her, especially in her heydays, and see that. I'm also sure she has 6 as her second fix. She's shared some details about her "messy childhood" throughout the years. "Being left... that sort of just stuck with me forever, that I'm really not that great, and as soon as you find out how not great I am, you will also leave me." And so, she stated she loved the security that came with the big age gap she had with Ric Ocasek. "Being with a man who possessed me, fully possessed me was really comforting."
