    I was doing a photo shoot at my home, and I am a total neat freak. We had to rearrange furniture and when the photographer’s assistant moved my couch, what was underneath can only be describe as disgusting and I was mortified. I literally almost died.

    21. Twitter or Instagram?

    Instagram.

    22. Bacon or Nutella?

    Bacon.

    23. Britney or Christina?

    24. Coffee or tea?

    Coffee in the morning, tea throughout the day after 10 a.m.

    25. NSYNC or BSB?

    Neither, synchronized and choreographed grown man dancing is just a no go for me.

    26. 2 a.m. or 2 p.m.?

    2 p.m. — I am asleep by 9 or 10.

    27. Beyonce or Rihanna?

    Ugh, tough… I really can’t answer, I feel they are basically the same.

    28. Netflix and chill or just Netflix?

    Isn’t that redundant? When you Netflix, aren’t you in essence, chilling?

    29. Hannah Montana or Lizzie McGuire?

    Wrong age demo — no clue.

    30. And finally: tell us a secret.

    I hardly cry, but I love the feeling of it.
