I love a man with a great sense of humor and who is intelligent — a man who has a great smile. He has to make me laugh.

Have a strong mind and a soft heart.
In my business, you should be very strong in mind. You have to be sure about yourself and about your work and your career, and you have to be strong inside because so many people come around and try to say bad things about you.
