Oh you’re so vain
On starting her fitness regime
On her best confidence-boosting trick“i buy jeans that are tight in the rear end. i’m not kidding. i treat my cheeks like breasts in a push-up bra. i just reach down in there, lift them up and push them together. and they’ll stay put if the jeans are tight enough in the seat.” On regrets“i used to smoke, so lung cancer is the thing that keeps me awake at night. i worry, did i quit in enough time? did i do it for too long? it’s one of those things where i think, boy, what a foolish thing i did. i’m not from the generation where you can go, ‘oh, i didn’t know it was bad for me.’ no. everybody knew it was bad.” On charity“regis’s heart scare was a reminder to stay on top of the issue. as women, we’re more interested in stuff that affects us immediately rather than thinking long-term. i also support the heart for women act, which asks the government for funding for women and heart disease awareness.” On marriage and pregnancy weight“when i was pregnant with my first son and i gained 68 pounds, mark made me feel like the queen of sheba every day – ‘you’re so beautiful, you’re so gorgeous.’… at this point, we’ve been married too long for him to say, ‘oh, you look so hot in that!”[Source]
