I definitely have the eye of the tiger. I've fought my way to where I am and will continue to do so. Furthermore, I'm a hard worker - I get it from my family. We only know work. Nothing was handed to us. When I believe in something, I go after it. It's very hard to tell me 'no.'

I don't really believe in diets. I love food... If I deprive myself, I'm going to want it more. I snack on yogurt, raw cashews and cherry tomatoes.

I love a man with a great sense of humor and who is intelligent - a man who has a great smile. He has to make me laugh. I like a man who is very ambitious and driven and who has a good heart and makes me feel safe. I like a man who is very strong and independent and confident - that is very sexy - but at the same time, he's very kind to people.

I'm going to take care of the man I'm with. I grew up in a household where my mum takes care of my dad - she cooks, she does everything - and that's the kind of girl I am.

You cry, and you scream, and you stomp your feet and you shout. You say, 'You know what? I'm giving up, I don't care.' And then you go to bed, and you wake up, and it's a brand-new day, and you pick yourself back up again.
