Alison Sweeney

I'm addicted to a really tough workout. I like to be drenched in sweat when I'm done because I feel accomplished.

Thank God my life is normal. I work hard to make it normal. My husband and I don't want Hollywood drama. I go to the market and do the dishes. I'm not treated differently because I work on TV.

If you're going to saute something, lightly spray olive oil in the pan or on veggies before you serve them. It adds a nice flavor. We grill a lot, so I'll use a little on my corn or my shrimp.

The thing about Paris, it's a great city for wandering around and buying shoes and nursing a cafe au lait for hours on end and pretending you're Baudelaire. But it's not a city where you can work.

I don't like to get in front of people.

I have a naturally camp sensibility and a camp sense of humour. I love the icons that gay people love.
