You see all these really pretty women in like different shows and stuff and they wear all these nice shoes and [large] heels, and its like, Oh my gosh, you look so great, but inside its killing her because her feet are hurting. So for me, its like I wear them and I look great in them But when you get home, you just wanna put your foot in a foot massager and just take a load off. Melanie will part with some of her cash on one big ticket item, but it wont be a present to herself. She told Access she still intends to buy her mom a property.

Yesterday it kind of hit me that this is gonna be my life from now on: interviews, hair, makeup, wardrobe, she said. As I got up, it was like, Bam! Bam! Bam!
