There's five cameras, I don't know how many people in the audience... depending on where we're taping, there can be anywhere from 300 to 5,000 people, so the contestants are nervous.
So, I understand when they make a mistake and everyone at home is throwing their shoe at the television set.
I'm a mom, a full-time mom when I'm not taping. I do the carpool thing, and bake the cookies, and do the homework.
I've worn over 6,700 gowns. They're all borrowed gowns, designer samples.
My biggest phobia is spiders. When I was in second grade, one of my classmates got bitten. That did it for me.
I will say I remember the best thing in terms of publicity was being on the cover of Newsweek.
