It's great to have financial support. But having someone's emotional support is something that I wish I had more of growing up.
I've become rather desensitized to how much sexy I put out.
I grew up in Atlanta, Georgia, and I honestly started performing for my family when I was around three. I would jump up on the coffee table and I would get in the closet and ask that they introduce me to come out, and from that point on, my mother stuck me in dance class and children's theater.
I have a really great bathtub, and I unwind by taking baths.
White diamonds can get boring, so I love a colored stone.
I think that's what makes marriage work - when you allow each other to be strong in their chosen profession; when you support each other and love each other.
That's the one thing I loved most about Tom when my son was younger was that he welcomed him with open arms. I'm very thankful. That's my guy.
I don't have a makeup bag, I have a makeup artist!
It's fun to have an over-the-top stage personality.
My breakfast is egg whites, avocado and grilled tomatoes. Lunch is usually some type of chicken and then for dinner... I like to eat. I'll eat pasta even though I'm not supposed to.
My mother was a makeup artist for Estee Lauder and she taught me.
There are two different sides of my personality, much like everyone has two different sides of their personality. I mean, it's a profession... It's something that I do. And I'm not Erika Jayne 24 hours a day.
Listen, I'm rebellious. Okay? I always have been.
You have to work to look good. You don't wake up and effortlessly look fabulous.
I tend to look at the silver lining of things.
Being able to express yourself under the name Erika Jayne and saying things people want to say but wouldn't, or doing things that people want to do but don't, or taking that extra leap of faith or pushing the levels of sexuality, or whatever, that helps Erika Girardi stand on her own two feet and be calm and peaceful.
I think my mother and grandmother had style even though we're humble Southern people.
Before I was cast on 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,' I had secretly quit Erika Jayne altogether.
I don't enjoy fighting with people. I don't enjoy having conflict.
You have to treat your skin very tenderly. You can't be aggressive with your skin.
