Catty is not cool. I can’t think of anything less becoming than a man who talks about people behind their backs.
Who you are as a person will only be amplified once you are ‘famous,’ so if you had a good heart, then I would imagine you’ll have the same good heart but the means to do even more with it.
Food makes travel so exceptional, because you get to taste what it’s actually supposed to taste like. To eat the real Pad Thai or finally have a proper curry is something pretty amazing.
Traveling gives you some perspective of what the rest of the world is like. I think that having the courage to step out of the norm is the most important thing.
I love Ralph Lauren. As I travel so much, I prefer to shop online.
I always want off-the-beaten-path, Anthony Bourdain-inspired travel.
On a normal day, I love a shift dress with flats and a little cropped jacket. That, for me, is my travel wear if it’s not too chilly – you can throw a scarf over your legs if it’s cold on the plane!
My parents came from little, so they made a choice to give a lot: buying turkeys for homeless shelters at Thanksgiving, delivering meals to people in hospices, giving spare change to those asking for it.
I’m deeply and passionately involved in the design process. I’m a brash American, and if my name is going to be on something, I’m going to have my say.
It was the late ’70s when my parents met. My dad was a lighting director for a soap opera, and my mom was a temp at the studio. They moved into a house in The Valley in L.A., to a neighborhood that was leafy and affordable.
My mom is a yoga instructor: 100% black with dreadlocks.
My dad is Caucasian, and my mom is African American. I’m half black and half white. Being biracial paints a blurred line that is equal parts staggering and illuminating.
When I was 13 years old, my mom had me start getting facials in my hometown of Los Angeles.
I’m from L.A., so I’m used to seeing people in sunglasses and flip-flops. There’s something so romantic about a man in a scarf and a knitted hat.
There is a myth that those who do humanitarian work have a saviour mentality, but the relationship is reciprocal.
I did calligraphy for the invitations for, like, Robin Thicke and Paula Patton’s wedding.
