When I really treat myself, I go to incredible Leonor Greyl in Paris for a head massage.

Moscow is a huge inspiration for me. I love what I find here, I love being here.

It's better to be skinny than to be fat.

I completely admire my mother for raising a child with cerebral palsy at home.

We all have our own purpose in life and I feel very strongly that I have a bigger purpose than giving to just my immediate family and friends.
