Nicknames… Doad, Chickey

My mom says I’m… I called my mom and said, "Finish this sentence, and she said, ‘She is the funniest little girl I know.’"

Five things you didn’t know about me…
1. I love falling asleep watching golf on Sundays in a nest of blankets.
2. I love to rub satin between my fingers, it’s instant relaxation for me.
3. My Mom and I can never get cliches right. (e.g.: "The grass is always greener on the other side" would come out as "The grass is greener sometimes because it is"!
4. I cannot decorate! My sister has all the talent.
5. I actually like doing my own hair on the show. For big events the Marc Anthony gang steps in.

When I grow up I want to be… Surrounded with the people I love.

My favourite interview… Michael J Fox. He is so inspirational and talented. On top of that he has such a great outlook on life and knows the value of a good day.

My celeb crush is… Well, it was John Mayer but these days I’m not so sure.

Best movie or TV show of all time… I love Chevy Chase’s Vacation flicks. TV: Entourage, 60 Minutes, Bachelor or Bachelorette (I know, I know… it’s a guilty pleasure!)

Insider tip… On the red carpet celebs are really nervous because everything they say and do is under the spotlight.

Proudest moment… In my career, hosting The Grammy Awards: ET Canada Live and going to Cannes to interview Brad Pitt, George Clooney and Don Cheadle for the ET Mother Ship.

Most embarrassing moment… I have some good ones that I would really have to tell you in person or it will get lost in translation!

In my spare time I love to… LOL – spare time!! I love to paint and golf with my family.

In 20 years I’ll be… Surrounded with the people I love I hope.
