I'm not living in the past, I don't want to go back - I don't want to "Make America Great Again." No, no, no.

I'm very proud of my skin and my face, and I have no problem not wearing makeup. I don't wear makeup because I feel like I need to cover myself up or because I don't feel confident. I wear makeup because it's fun; it's like painting on my face.

I just like to have fun.
