"Kicking off the day in NYC with a fun birthday brunch with friends at the Nomad Hotel Rooftop! My birthday cake blew me away, I almost didn’t want to eat it because it was so perfect!"

"I absolutely love roses! I also love to throw rose petals around, so I definitely had to have some in my room as I was getting ready."

"A room is never complete without a bottle of bubbly - and a little rock n’ roll playing in the background."

"I got this robe for my 60th birthday and it brings me good luck, so I knew I had to pack it with me and wear it on the red carpet."

"I don't use a lot of makeup, the only thing I need is my red lipstick!"

"I had to remember who to thank during my speech at the ACE Awards. I hate bringing paper on stage, so I asked my team to write reminders on my hand, I felt like I was cheating on a test!"

"Champagne and roses are my absolute favorite, it just brings so much joy to the room!"

"I rarely wear dresses, but when I do, they need to be ME, I hate boring! I picked this dress that Katy Perry wore to the People’s Choice Awards in 2011 and added jewelry to make the dress stand out even more! I just love being creative with my outfits."

"Some of my favorite accessories that I’m wearing to the ACE Awards: My sparkly velvet heels and my Warhol bag!”

"When I was finally ready, I felt like a princess!"

"I just love doing splits, and there wasn’t enough room for a full cartwheel on the red carpet."
