LA’s leading ladies in love with my lingerie!
When it comes to feminine feminism, TV -with its new generation kick-ass leading ladies expressing my motto ‘Dare to dream, dare to grow, dare to be’- is definitely where it’s at! So when I got invited to play a part in TV’s biggest night of the year, I grabbed my party heels and jetted off to Los Angeles.
What a week it was! We set up an exclusive Emmy Awards gift suite in Beverly Hills where we welcomed our favorite TV stars, from acting legend Angela Bassett to Susanne Bier, the only female nominee for Best Director (she won!). I was interviewed live for NBC – Today in LA and danced the night away with stunning beauties like Dutch actress Famke Jansen and a heavily pregnant Kerry Washington at the hottest Emmy parties.
There were so many glamorous highlights, and fondling gorgeous actress Regina King’s breasts in the middle of a dance floor – hey, she wanted to know her bra size! – was definitely one of them. And I learned that, as far as lingerie is concerned, the stars are a just like you and me. They want a perfect fit combined with a stunning design. They want to feel safe, yet sexy. Big screen, small screen or off screen, we all want the same thing: to shine bright!

Building bridges
From the Erasmus Bridge and the Mercedes-Benz Museum to Qatar’s metro network; Ben van Berkel’s iconic landmarks bring people together in rapturous beauty, again and again. I talked with the Dutch architect and educator about sensuality, ‘healthy’ buildings and the remarkable parallels between our designs.

More than a feeling
Don’t ignore your emotions; they are much more powerful than you can imagine. By linking the magical world of emotions with hard science, Dutch scientist Pierre Capel, professor emeritus in experimental immunology, shows us the consequences of our feelings and the power of our minds. The message: we can do much more than we think. “Meditate. It’s the single best thing you can do for your health.”

Keto curious?
The fact that I feel bikini-confident all year round is, of course, a nice bonus. But for me, the biggest payoff of following the keto diet is the way it optimizes my health and gives me tons of energy.

Super (skin) food
‘If you can’t eat it, why put it on your skin?’. I pretty much live by this beauty adage. After all, with your skin being one of your body’s largest organs, anything – and I mean anything! – you put onto your skin will end up in your bloodstream.
