  • Sex and the City "Nothing has ever replaced Sex and the City for me. I just remember watching it when I was in my early 20s and really relating to it so much. It was definitely a time in my life with my friends all together at the same time. I remember us celebrating the final episode and us all going over to each other's houses, drinking cocktails and just having the best time."
  • America's Next Top Model "My guilty pleasure, so much so that I actually met Tyra [Banks] the other day and did an impression of Tyra to Tyra. It was horrific. It was very much like I was looking down at myself. I had an out-of-body experience and was like, 'What the hell are you doing?'"
  • Nigella Express "I love Nigella Lawson and cooking programs. It's like my relaxation. I can watch them back to back to back. And I find it really relaxing with a glass of red wine, in sweatpants, watching at home. Also her recipes quick and easy, so I feel like I can do it."
