I remember dreaming about it, about being on TV. I remember seeing Children of a Lesser God on Broadway. I was sitting in the second or third row, and I was just so blown away, and I walked out saying, ‘That’s what I want to do.’

As women, we do feel like we have to live up to an expectation, whether it's on camera or going to the market or whatever it is. And the truth of the matter is, that's not always the way it is. We don't always have our high heels on, we don't always have our makeup on.

My best hostess tip is to have good food and really good music!

I've never sat there and plotted out how I was going to become successful or famous.

I was always reading those beauty magazines and wanting to become this unattainable thing.

I was born in Sherman Oaks, California.

I just stay fit and in shape.
