WHAT WILL YOU BRING TO THE VILLA? My girls are my rocks and I am theirs, so I will be a good friend and also go there to find a man. I like dressing up, so I’ll bring style and I’d like to think I’m funny enough to make people laugh. I also bring honesty: I am good at picking up on people’s personality traits and looking askance at those who might be liars.
