Are your boyfriends more afraid of your mother or your father?
My mother, because she's a crazy Chinese woman. She's fiery, like, "What do you do? Where are you from? Do you smoke?
What's one thing a woman should never say to another woman?
The C-U-N-T word. Never.
What was your best date?
I went out to Brooklyn to meet this guy on a rooftop. Nice and simple, we put a picnic rug out and smoked, drank wine, talked, and watched the city skies. That was fucking nice.
What's one thing money can't buy?
Me. And the sky.
