I used to be a not-healthy 130 lb. girl, all in my stomach, all in my arms so I lost the weight and I stayed there then I became a control freak about the way I was eating and it just became the norm.

My goal is to develop curves on my body.

I know one of the blessings of being a mother is getting hips and I'm not going to have that because I chose not to have kids, so I believe God is going to give me some hips if I work for it.

Some people are really, really attracted to looks first, or money, or things like that.

I like talking about it, I like talking about world change. I like talking about things that you want to do in your community.

There's a tiny vial of turmeric I like to add to my tea and my facial cleanser. It revitalizes and detoxifies - it does everything.

I have this bookmark with glued-on macaroni. I made it in the fourth grade while in detention for giving a girl a tattoo using two rocks rubbed together and a stick.

I definitely watch reality shows where I'm not learning something better in the end.

My favorite thing about beauty and fashion in all seasons is that it's a way to reinvent ourselves.

I believe the green movement is gaining momentum because people are becoming more educated about the real importance of living green.

While many of us use beauty products every single day, we fail to recognize how much waste this can actually create if the empty bottles aren't recycled.

My favorite memory was tubing with Mama Mai. We had never done it before, and we told the guy driving to go as fast as the boat could take us.

In L.A. there's diet trends, there's the new nip and tuck people are doing, the new person who is in town you never saw before.

My Aunt Linh had to reimagine her life after she was diagnosed with RMS, especially when she was faced with certain challenges related to her fashion and beauty routines.

Now that I think about it, my 40th birthday was the most anxiety I've ever had, and my wedding was also the second time I've had that much anxiety. So I'm starting to realize that I can't be throwing these big bash parties because I need to own that I get anxiety with a lot of people diverting their attention to me.

I was low-key abusing myself. The idea of being skinny became something that was most appealing to me. Even if you watch 'The Real,' from season 1 to season 4, I was always 100 lbs. I started to really work hard to stay petite and to not gain weight and to stay sample size.

Anything that's shiny, you can mix together. I love rhinestones with sequins, or baubles with fun gold metallics.
