Personal Quote:

I think sex is definitely here to stay so I don't see any necessity for throwing it in people's faces. I don't think a girl has to wear dresses cut down to her tummy to exhibit what is known as feminine allure. She can exhibit it in a high neck dress but subtly. Heaven knows I want people to think I have sex appeal. But I also want to think I have something besides sex appeal. See more »

Trivia:

A feminist at a young age, she once tried to start a girls football team at school but got into trouble because it was considered "un-lady like". See more »

Trademark:

Blonde hair and blue eyes

Nickname:

The 'Ping' Girl See more »
