I didn't want to be the aunt where you come over and can't sit on the sofa.

I'm about being honest and knowing that people are watching, and they want to know that I'm asking questions that they want the answers to.

I date, don't get me wrong. I'm not up here filing my fingernails on a Friday night. I want to find someone to share my life with.

I love Rihanna. She represents that strong, independent woman that you cannot keep down.

I quite enjoy cooking. I love cooking for my friends. It's communal, it reminds me of being with family, and it's also a form of therapy; it heals you from the inside out.

Al Roker is one of the most sensible people you'll ever meet. He's raised two daughters and a son. And I love him, in that as jovial as he is, he's a straight shooter. He's a New Yorker, as they say.
