Stella McCartney

When I say I don't do fur or leather, in my world it's a massive shock, but when it comes into the sporting arena, it goes without saying.

S.E. Cupp

I don't like mimicking people. I don't like repeating talking points. I don't like arguing with people just to argue. I like actually coming up with an interesting thing to say that I don't think has been said before in that way.

American Journalist

Lauren Bush
