I was raised in a mostly white neighborhood. I was this little white girl jamming out to Ella Fitzgerald and Bobby Brown.

When I became Miss India Asia-Pacific in 1994, I was a small town girl from Calicut. If I could make it, then wow, anyone could.

I'm more than just a curvy girl.

Elton John is a huge influence and an artist I've listened to since I was a little girl.

I was the good girl. The straight A student, on the honour roll, part of the choir... I played the cello badly. I did plays.

It doesn't bother me if I'm getting attention because I'm a girl.

My first lead role was probably 'Party Girl' in 1994.

I've wanted to go to space, really, since I was a little girl.

When we found out we were having a child, I was like I want the child to be healthy, but when asked do you want a boy or a girl, I wanted a girl.

I was a goody two shoes - a straight-A girl, and I took pride in my studies.

I was thinking, could I be the sixth Spice Girl?

Vida's definitely a beautiful and peaceful girl.

I must have been a really pretentious little girl.

When I was a little girl, I dreamed of being an elf.

With dates I like to cater a girl. We do whatever she likes. If she was open to what I wanted to do, it probably wouldn't be a dull date, because I am a jock.
