I'm still the girl that might get up to dance on the table. It's just who I am, and I'm going to be me and that's it.

Honestly, in the beginning, it was really tough. Coming from Cincinnati, Ohio, I was just a girl who had a dream, which was to go to Los Angeles, have a career and to be able to support my family. To have a dream like that and, you know, you're not ready.

I'm very independent, I like to be alone a lot, I like to go shopping by myself - that's my quiet time.

I was performing in this burlesque group, and we would go to dance rehearsals every day. You'd use every part of your body. Even though some of it is slow, it takes a lot of muscle to be able to dip down and come back up.

When people assume that you're one way and you're not that way at all, it's hard.

I have to pinch myself because I always had a dream of having a make-up campaign. I love make-up, I'm such a girl in that way. I love it so much and to be a part of Max Factor and to represent them is such an honour.

When anything bad happens, my insecurities come flooding out.
