Pick three people, living or dead, who you think would make the most fascinating dinner guests imaginable.
Harvey Milk. That would represent my political side. Mother Theresa, to represent my loving, caring side. And DJ Joe Gauthreaux. He’d represent my party, festive side.

What would you serve?
To make the dinner more awkward, I’d make a Puerto Rican dish. Like white rice and beans, or a nice slab of meat.

How would you describe your dream guy?
He has to have a spark in his eyes or a desire when he looks into mine. I’d like him to be passionate, and aware of the world around him. Someone who’d like to settle down with me, have children. He has to smell good, not with perfume, though.

Define good in bed.
Honest and sincere. Quiet nights are the best. When you can just stare at both of you, naked in bed. That’s when the fireworks happen.

Who was your first celebrity crush?
Cam Gigandet.

Who gets on your nerves?
People who display ignorance or bigotry.

If your home was burning, what’s the first thing you’d grab while leaving?
My duffel bag with gym clothes, work clothes, cologne, a wallet. Basically everything I need is in there.

What’s your biggest turn-on?
Big, sexy hands that can hug me.
