My grandmother used to cook for eight every day - sitting down lunches and dinner, the way you do it in Italy, you sit down. And when my parents could afford their own place, I went with them but still my mother used to work but used to come back from work to cook lunch for my father, come back from work, cook dinner for my father and me.

I really do want to have a child.

I’ve really become super active in rescuing animals, and it has made my life feel so much better. I can’t even express to you how happy it has made me.

I started my career as a singer in Japan, but left it all behind to focus on my dancing career.

Somehow when I express my voice, I feel that much more vulnerable. For instance, if I used the wrong word, or if I said something and somebody could take the word and misinterpret it.

My poor vision gives me a soft-focus morning. For the first half hour, I kind of wander through my house, and everything is a blur. I put my contacts in when I'm ready to deal with the world.

I come from a dancing background, and I know it's stereotypical, but I would dance because I wasn't comfortable speaking to people.
