Because of who my husband is, and our life, and also he is number one in the polls - well, you take that all together, and people are very curious about me.

Because revenge is a very known feeling in American culture, there's a certain element of an eye for an eye. There's the saying, 'Be careful what you wish for, you might get it.'
