I remember when the wave of Jennifer Lopez, Salma Hayek and these beautiful Hispanic women came into light, and I looked up to them and I loved them, but I was like, 'Where are Middle Eastern women?'
I've always been the type to fall in love fast and, with every boyfriend, I plan out my wedding in my head.
I don't even drink! I can't stand the taste of alcohol. Every New Year's Eve I try one drink and every time it makes me feel sick. So I don't touch booze - I'm always the designated driver.
I wanted to be a teacher.
I think I'll always be a hopeless romantic.
There was at time in my life where all I wanted was a relationship, and I thought that was the most important thing.
I definitely think anything I'd be in now is a permanent relationship.
I have to be in a relationship in order to be intimate. I'm not the one-night-stand kind of girl. Despite the rumors.
I don't talk about money.
My mom and I had the same vision, and we want the same things. We would always make a goal list every year.
My decision to end my marriage was such a risk to lose ratings and lose my fan base. I had to take that risk for my inner peace and to be happy with myself.
You make mistakes, but I don't have any regrets. I'm the kind of person who takes responsibility for it and deals with it. I learn from everything I do. I work very hard, I have so many things going on in my life. Get to know me and see who I am.
The perfect date for me would be staying at home, making a big picnic in bed, eating Wotsits and cookies while watching cable TV.
You never know what the future holds or where my life will take me.
If I like a food, I'll eat it, even if I know it's not good for me.
If I don't feel confident about my body, I'm not going to sit at home and feel sorry for myself and not do something about it. It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.
There's more pressure to be famous for being yourself than if you're being a character.
I always put clothes and family photos under the mattress, in case the house burns down.
My mother has always been the social glue holding the family together.
Everything family does is reflection on the other people.
