NPK: What about fashion?
CB: I still wear short skirts. For me, it's whatever you look good in. I still pretty much look good in the same things that worked years ago. And the things that didn't work before still don't work.
NPK: Moving on to your show, what are your biggest fears about doing the show?
CB: I started doing it in my early sixties, so it's proof that you can do something totally different that you did not do
when you were younger. In
that sense, it's been really
rewarding. I enjoy doing
it, and I don't get
nervous, which is
one of the reasons
why I do it. If I
got really
nervous,
I wouldn't
do it because
I'm too old to be uncomfortable.
NPK: Do you actually drink Cosmopolitans?
CB: I like a Cosmo or champagne. I “drink” a lot in the show but it's not real alcohol.
NPK: Do you have any favorite spots you’re looking forward to visiting when you come to Chicago?
CB: I haven't been to Chicago for a while. I lived in Chicago in the 80s. I had a boyfriend who moved there for a job, and I moved with him for about 6 months. I do like deep-dish pizza as a special treat.
NPK: In addition to the show, what else do you have in the works?
CB: I'm working on a couple of TV things that I can't talk about at this point except that it’s around women in their fifties and sixties.
