I’m like a rock singer with one-night stands on the road. I’m here for two days in New York; I leave in the morning early. I come back for Anna Wintour’s party at the Met, then again at the end of May for a prize I get from the Gordon Parks Foundation.

I’m trying to think of the last time I had onions.

When I was four, I asked my mother for a valet for my birthday.
