In the past I would self destruct when it came to love - I was immature, throwing myself into things but now times have changed, I want a relationship where you understand the other person.

My maternal desires are fully satisfied with my dogs.

I am a firm believer in marriage. In the future I will be married.

Since I was a little kid, I was against fur. I never wore fur in my life.

I have always seen cold and controlled men as the right ones for me.

American men are more open, they are readier to express their emotions, but they also get frightened easily. Italians are used to drama. For us, arguing, shouting is perfectly normal - for them it is inconceivable.

Sometimes when I flick through a magazine and see these thin models I'm left wondering what effect they can have on an insecure person. But I say to girls: forget what you see in the magazines, that is a world which has nothing to do with reality; think of it as a cartoon.
