“Curl the lashes, concealer under the eyes, blush, ChapStick, and highlight in the inner corner of the eye.”

I’m really big on day dates. If you go for a stroll, have a picnic or lunch with a glass of wine – it doesn’t get better than that.

Catty is not cool. I can’t think of anything less becoming than a man who talks about people behind their backs.

I was not a girl who grew up buying $100 candles. I was the girl who ran out of gas on her way to an audition.

If you have an Ina Garten-level roasted-chicken recipe, it’s a game changer. I bring that to dinner parties and make a lot of friends.

I love connecting with the fan base and sharing my experiences.

It was the late ’70s when my parents met. My dad was a lighting director for a soap opera, and my mom was a temp at the studio. They moved into a house in The Valley in L.A., to a neighborhood that was leafy and affordable.

Food makes travel so exceptional, because you get to taste what it’s actually supposed to taste like. To eat the real Pad Thai or finally have a proper curry is something pretty amazing.

It’s really important that young women be reminded that their involvement matters and that their voice is heard. Even if it feels like it’s small, it really can make an impact.

On a normal day, I love a shift dress with flats and a little cropped jacket. That, for me, is my travel wear if it’s not too chilly – you can throw a scarf over your legs if it’s cold on the plane!

Be able to delegate, because there are some things that you just can’t do by yourself.

Your gorgeous eyes were the reason to make me fall in love with you. They were deep enough to make me sink forever.

The most dangerous drug I know has brown eyes and a heartbeat.
