girl mean home
A girl's got to do what she's got to do to make somebody pay her a compliment. If that means moaning 'til the cows come home, then so be it.
eye looks lighting
I find great lighting and a squint of the eyes makes anyone look better.
sea hair world
I have the biggest hair in the world - and that's official!
vogue-magazine magazines british
I am addicted to 'Vogue' magazines, be they French, British - I adore, adore, adore.
perception fame changed
Being famous hasn't changed my perception of myself - I've just grown up.
noble teach
There actually isn't anything better than a noble failure. It will always teach you something and you will always learn from the experience.
hate shopping lasts
I hate last-minute shopping, it's always unsuccessful.
school squares lucky
I enjoyed school, I was a bit of a square. I did very well in exams. I was quite lucky I was academic.
kindness intelligent men
I used to say I wanted somebody funny and intelligent, but kindness is the most important quality in a man.
reality thinking tv-shows
People will always want it [reality TV shows], if it's produced well and if it's telling people's stories - that's all anybody wants: to connect with another human being on a very basic level. If the stories are told well, I think it can continue and continue.
people honest
I love people who are very honest and very open and don't pretend to be anything they're not.
birthday hate party
I hate birthdays. I hate birthday parties. I hate them. I don't know what it is, anybody's only got to come wafting near me with a piece of cake with a candle on and I break out in hives.
girl sleep exercise
I'm a low maintenance girl. I try to do very little when I don't have to. I find that if I have regular 'maintenance' treatments, I can be ready to go out in 5 minutes. I get my hair coloured, have regular massages, and love getting my lashes tinted and my brows shaped. Plus heaps of exercise, and as much sleep as possible. That way when I'm going out all I have to do is slick on some gloss, and a bit of blush and I am ready to go! Of course the LA sun helps too.
spiders different needs
If I'm interviewing someone I need to know everything about them - I do these massive spider diagrams. Everything under different categories, and certain questions in other categories.
