Kimora Lee Simmons

I'm a girl's girl. I'm a woman's woman. I'm a cool girl.

Yes, I'm quirky, loud and crazy.

Fabulosity. It's a state of being.

You don't have to dumb down - you just have to find a clever, good, secure man. I've found a couple - I've been lucky - but it's probably hard for everybody to find that true love of a good man.

I try not to be neurotic; I try to create and present healthy body image.

I was bullied and picked on because I was so different to everyone else, and I definitely didn't believe or even know I was fabulous back then. But those hard times made me everything I am today. It's all water under the bridge now, but being bullied and going through adversity definitely made me stronger.

I don't eat too much. I don't have a lot of time, but I can get in a little treadmill. I eat healthily just because it's good for me, and running after my three kids takes a lot of energy.

I feel like I'm a good motivator; I'm very determined.

I have a really big mouth, I have a lot of opinions and I will be heard.

I'm very determined, honest, open and definitely very energetic. I expect a lot as a boss and I'm very demanding, but I ask that of myself too.

It's not about how skinny you are or how much money or how many diamonds you have - that's the fluff that people sometimes look at as being the main thing. It's about understanding that the things that make you fabulous are all inside of you.

I represent luxury, and that's what I love.

I am not the kind of girl that gets in trouble.

I'm not one of those Hollywood moms where my kid is three weeks old and I'm a size zero. I'm a real woman and I'm a working woman and a working mom.

I have a lot of hang-ups in life with men. I'm not very trusting.

'Fabulosity' is to get up when you've been kicked down, and it's not to go after who kicked you down.

I'm much more into old-world, intimate conversations on the phone. I like to write letters.

I'm fiercely protective of my children even though we are on TV.

I think one great tip is that you should always love yourself. If you don't love yourself, take care of yourself, cater to yourself and that little inner voice, you will really not be very worthy of being with someone else, because you won't be the best version of you.

Live honestly to a higher note. Life is too short. So, do the best you can and live your life to a higher note.

I don't apologize for my diamonds, Rolls-Royce, Range Rover, or anything. Look, Queen Elizabeth has more diamonds than me. Why don't people attack her for it?

You can never control other people. You can only control yourself. I have definitely learned that.

Relationships do change throughout the course of your life, and I always think in terms of relationships changing and evolving rather than starting and stopping.

I try to do everything from the viewpoint of what's best for my kids. I have three kids and two great dads and it's not always easy, but you have to try to be a little selfless and we manage just fine.

It's not always about the money and the fame, and a lot of people think that it is sometimes.
