“I try to give back as much as I can to the community, especially in the area that I grew up in. I've donated costumes to charity.”
“I don't necessarily view myself as a 'famous' person, I look at like Tom Cruise or Julia Roberts and think to myself, now that's a celebrity.”
“I'm not one of those girls that's like, 'I have to be married by the time I'm 35 and I have to have six babies when I'm 38.' No, I'm just fine it's all good.”
“It's important for me to keep my cardio up, especially for my body type, or I'll gain weight so fast.”
“I believe in everything in moderation, including exercise.”
“When I'm not dancing it's important I stay in shape, and for me, because I've been so active my whole life its hard for me just to go on a treadmill and run for a few miles.”
“I'm not really good on skates. But dance shoes I can dance in!”
“I have tried so many fad diets, I've wasted so much time looking for a solution when it was right in front of me all along - take care of yourself, nourish your body, surround yourself with good people - you will feel good and will shine in all that you do.”
“I still go through times when I'm down. I don't feel like I'm that strong woman that people think I am today.”
“My mom is Filipino and my dad is half Russian and half Irish.”
“It's really hard for me to beat around the bush or lie, so sometimes the truth hurts.”
“I want to try new things and just see what's out there.”
“It's tough... My real father - I have my stepdad, my mom remarried - but my real father lived in Thailand, so I barely saw him as it is. So it was really hard for me to go back there and just, I feel like I have a lot of unanswered questions.”
“Listen, you can never take the bedazzle away from me.”
“A little moisturizer and I'm out the door. I don't even need to put on mascara anymore because of my lash extensions.”
“I created 'Disco Abs' so you could have as much fun getting in shape as I do.”
“Dancing is the best exercise. Not only is it great cardio, but it works everything, strengthening your whole body.”
“My weight fluctuates, just like any other person's does, and there will always be critics.”
“Tommy Chong is one of my favorite people in the whole wide world.”
“I have personal experience dancing with someone who is a Republican and someone who worked for the White House.”
