Al Pacino and Bono from U2 because they are fascinating and a bit offbeat.If Picasso was alive, he would get an invitation too.

2. What is your favourite food indulgence?
Caramello chocolate or any dairy milk chocolate.

been your next choice? Acting. But I am pursuing that option right now.

A seafood banquet followed by my grandmother's bread and butter pudding for dessert.

The very first car I ever bought. It was an old navy BMW and I've only just sold it.

10. What is your most embarrassing moment?
There have been thousands of little embarrassing moments but the one that comes to mind is when my buttons started popping on a catwalk in Sydney a few years ago. I simply put my hand up behind my neck to hold everything together and tried to make it look like I was showing off the collar.

11. Who do people say you look like?
People say Cindy Crawford because I have a mole in a similar place on my face. Also, Liz Hurley.

I was cooking a cheese soufflé for few people at my place and it flopped. It was pretty spectacular!
