- Let’s talk about relationships – are you currently in
one? Are you looking at settling down at some point? I know you’ve
heard that question a lot of times but tell us the truth now.
*takes a deep breath* I think
everyone is prioritizing and so am I. It’s not like I don’t want to settle
down, want somebody and until I find that person,
there’s no thoughts of me settling down. I’m not looking, I’m a woman, we are
not allowed to look.

- Don’t you think a lot of guys are scared of you now?
They will say she is good looking, successful, she’s got her own career,
let me leave her alone, I can’t handle that kind of wife. I can’t tell her
what to do.
