• My two favorite cities are New York and Miami. When in Miami I love to eat at Prime 112 and stay at W Hotel South Beach.
• Dana Ravich is my not only my favorite writer, but also the co-author of my new book  The Weekend Makeover: Get a Brand New Life By Monday Morning

• I’m a singer, actress, director, wife, and a mother. This is a look into a day in the life of “me”.
• As an actress on the go, I don’t have a lot of time to shop for red carpet outfits. When I need to find a gorgeous dress to pop on the red carpet, my go-to location is Pistol and Stamen. They always have a selection of dresses to get me red carpet ready without the insanity of running around from store to store trying things on. I have been acting since I was a little girl in Chicago, Illinois. I was brought into music at a young age by my mother who worked at a recording studio. Over the years I recorded many small, self-produced albums which helped hone my talent for singing. At the age of 14 my mom took me to audition for a musical in Chicago and I got the lead. Since then, I’ve been bit by the acting bug. It’s a true passion of mine.
• People who have inspired me over the years to become the woman and actress I am today include; my mother, who was a single mother and raised me to be the strong woman I am today, my father, who was always present and whom I saw every day despite my parents’ divorce. He is a kind and gentle man and inspired me to always be the same towards everyone I meet. Last but certainly not least, my acting coach, Sara Mornell who continues to push me towards growing and perfecting my craft.
• I still have many goals, dreams, and aspirations that I’m working towards. I have not given up on wanting to win every award there is to offer. I hope one day to be the proud owner of a Tony, Golden Globe, SAG, Oscar, and Emmy award. While earning recognition is always nice and is something to strive for, my main goal in life is to be a great mom to my kids and give them a happy life. Their existence is what has motivated me to do more with my career. I need to take care of them and that means NO RELAXING! My daughter, Parker (8) and my son Dre (4) mean the world to me and I would do anything to provide them with the best life possible.
• Where can you find me on a typical day? Playing golf with my husband at Braemar Club or working out at Cario Barre. If I’m not working, I’m with my family and friends. Enjoying life, soaking up all it has to offer, and being the best mom I can be. For more on my life and what drives me, check out the links below!

• I  was awarded a Centenary Medal for services to Television and the Australian Community by the Prime Minister of Australia.
• I received the Medal of the Order of Australia for environmental, charitable and landscape design contribution to the community.

• I LOVE NYC -- there's always something new to discover. I've probably been 60+ times and still never been to the Statue of Liberty! I'm a travel junkie though, so I never skip an opportunity to go to Europe or South America. Every place has it's own flavor.
• I was an anthropology major in college, so I'm fascinated by underground subcultures and lifestyle evolution. My senior thesis was on a hallucinogenic drug that was popular in the Amazon but making its way into underground American culture. I love weird stuff like that.
• Arts and crafts! I'm horrible at them, but I have a bag of random goodies that I get into whenever I'm stressed. Right now I'm trying to make a lamp out of all my old cell phones. We'll see how that turns out.
• I'm inspired by entrepreneurs who are using technology to build a platform and connect to an audience.  There's this whole world out there, but social media makes everything smaller and more accessible. I started consulting for companies on their digital media strategy last year, and I absolutely love it. Addicted. I like to see the little guy win.
• I just finished my comedy album last October, On My Face, which is available on iTunes. I'm still growing my YouTube channel (so subscribe to me if you want to stay up to date!), and I'm also finishing up a book on digital media. I'll still continue acting and hosting when I can, but I'm really focused on the online side right now, it's what gets me excited...and out of bed in the morning!

• I’m self-taught on both guitar and piano and was a trash collector before my big break on the first season of  The X Factor.
• My fans call themselves “Renelians” and I’m the leader of the Love Life Army.

• I love the music of Sade and Eminem.

• I’m the co-founder of CheekyChicago.com, an online lifestyle magazine for women covering all of Chicago. We throw monthly events drawing our online community of 50,000 into the real world, giving our brand a 360° social experience. We produce everything from fashion shows to cocktail parties to New Year’s Eve bashes and beyond.
• Even though I’m technically an entrepreneur, I will always consider myself an artist.
• I went to college to study Acting. When I graduated, I worked consistently for five years in Chicago theatre, commercials, feature films and in voiceovers. I’m SAG and AFTRA, which most people don’t know. I was pretty darn good at it and booked a ton of work. (My biggest claim to fame is a film called “Nothing Like the Holidays” with Debra Messing and John Leguizamo. I played the “Brunette” even though I’m blond. Not joking. See... )  The thing about acting was, well, I really liked it. But I didn’t love it.  And to follow that path for your entire life, you have to love it, live it and die for it. That wasn’t me. The constant scrutiny, rejection and above all… the narcissism that naturally evolves over time was just way too much for me after so long. I always knew I was meant for something a little more… dimensional.
• However, I’ve never lost my knack for drama. Just ask my boyfriend.
• I was always and still am a writer at heart.  I have a collection of over 25 journals I’ve written in since I was 10 years old. I have them all in my bookcase in my apartment and if – heaven forbid- my house ever burned down, they are one of the only things I would take with me. They are literally my life’s story.  I bare a lot of what I write, and how I write, in my personal blog section on Cheeky.
• So I was working a day-job at a gym five years ago, mainly because I was too broke to afford the membership. Feeling disenchanted with acting, it was there I met my now business partner. We bonded over our mutual love for food. We still joke that we started CheekyChicago as an excuse to eat and write about it. We would make weekly “girlfriend” dates and try all the hottest new restaurants in town together. One day, we were gushing over the same restaurant and I said to her: “We talk about food the same way...we should start a food blog together.”  It was our light-bulb moment. We were using the web at the time to figure out where to go ourselves and there wasn’t an online resource that spoke to us as young, cosmopolitan girls.  So we created it. And we didn’t stop with just food. We love so much about our city and being girls, so we decided to design a fully fleshed out online magazine for the city covering nightlife, events, fashion, fitness, music, theatre, pop-culture, relationships and beyond. We also wanted to create a true community, to give all the fabulous, open-hearted, rad babes of Chicago a place to call home. So we decided to do events once a month to create that community. Now our once-monthly events are the biggest and most-buzzed about events in Chicago.
• We were 24 and 26 when we wrote our first business plan, raised a couple hundred grand from friends and family, quit our jobs and launched CheekyChicago.com in 2008. We had NO CLUE what we were doing. We had passion, a vision and a truly “we-don’t-take-no-for-an-answer” attitude.  We are now the most notable female brand in Chicago, with over 50,000 women tapped into our website and weekly newsletter. I really blame my success on my pure naivety. When failure is simply not an option, you have no other option than to succeed.
• My savior is yoga. I’ve been practicing for 10 years and without I go crazy. I religiously take classes at TruHarmony Yoga, one of the best studios in the city. Megan Chappell the founder has one of the best bodies I’ve ever seen. She also trains me once a week. She’s my inspiration.
• I’ve been to Zijautenjo Mexico 14 times. My favorite place in the world is there. Casa Que Canta is a boutique hotel with 25 rooms and a five-star restaurant. It’s a magical Mexican castle.
• Music makes my heart beat. My taste is super eclectic.  Let’s just say this: I would like to be best friend’s with Robyn, share Gwen Stefani’s closet, invite Bloc Party and Cut Copy over for dinner, go on a date with John Legend and drink a beer with Stevie Nicks.
• I thought I would be single forever. I’ve had my heart broken a millions times over. The word “boyfriend” freaked me out for years. I met Brian on a blind date 9 months ago and I knew immediately he was my guy. I never knew happiness, let alone love, like this existed.
• One of my favorite pastimes is hitting my favorite bar in all of Chicago, Bar Deville, on a Saturday with my two best girlfriends Lisa and Megan. We dance and get weird until 4am right before they kick us out.
• I used to hate cats. That is until I met my amazing, sexy and wonderful boyfriend who owns one. Her name is Bailey and I’m obsessed with her. She’s a dog trapped inside a cat’s body. She follows me around the house like a puppy. I Instagram her on the regular. My boyfriend calls me “crazy cat lady.” He’s so embarrassed by me.
• I love Chelsea Handler. I read her “Chelsea Chelsea Bang Bang” recently and laughed till I nearly pissed myself. I love fearless women. But on the flipside, I’m currently reading “Killing Kennedy” by Bill O’Reilly. I love reading non-fiction and history if it’s a fascinating enough story. JFK was a pimp.
• My father is my hero. He slept on a cot in the kitchen of his five-person family’s 1-bedroom apartment most of his life. At 13, he was financially cut off because my grandparents couldn’t afford him anymore. He’s now a very wealthy man and 100%, completely self-made. Self-made people, in my opinion, are the most admirable people in the world.
• I believe people in the event industry are masochists at heart.  You plan for months and months for what comes down to two to three hours. It’s stressful, anxiety-ridden, at times miserable and adrenaline pumping. I get off on it.
• Girls can be bitches. I don’t get it. If women were less apt to tear each other down and more prone to build each other up and support each other- we could rule the world. That’s what it means to “be Cheeky.” It’s being confident enough in yourself to treat other women amazingly.
• I am fiercely dedicated to the plight of equal rights for the LGBT community in our country. It’s as disgraceful as the Civil Rights Movement that my best friends can’t get married but I can. The HRC is the one charity I give my money to every month. I literally cry every time I hear “Born This Way” by Lady Gaga.
• My preferred beverage is champagne.
• My favorite show is Californication.
• My favorite designer is Betsey Johnson.
• I’m considered a socialite in Chicago. I find that bizarre and humbling at the same time. All I want is to make a positive impact on my community.
• I just became a vegan. I have always eaten pretty healthy, so cutting out dairy and meat hasn’t been a big deal. I am one of those weirdos who actually enjoys the taste of green juice, quinoa and almond cheese.
• My therapist told me there are few people who feel as deeply as I do. I’ve never been one to contain or repress emotion in any capacity of my life. If you’re not feeling the journey, then you’re missing it entirely.

• I grew up in Los Angeles and have 2 kids, a 9 year old daughter, Dylan Rose and a 7 year old son, Colt Alexander.

• A few of my favorite bands are The Rolling Stones, Pearl Jam, Sublime, Allman Brothers Band, Eagles, Incubus and Steely Dan.

• I wanted a clothing store since I was nine years old and opened my first flagship store on Robertson Blvd when I was 25 years old in 1995, Lisa Kline Men in 1999, www.lisakline.com in 2001, Lisa Kline Outlet in 2004, Lisa Kline Malibu in 2004, Lisa Kline Kids in 2006 and Lisa Kline Beverly Hills 2006.

• I'm a Scorpio and love Astrology.

• One of my favorite things to do is to go to Button Willow or Willow Springs Race Track to race Porsches with the boys.

• I love wearing 5” heels and dressing sexy.

• My favorite restaurants are Dantana’s, Madeo, Boa, Mastro, Nobu Malibu, Kiwami, Carney’s and In-N-Out.

• I'm involved with lots of charity organizations such as, Until There’s A Cure, Be The Link, Widows Wear Stilettos, Friendly House and Miss Wheelchair America.

• My favorite hotel is The Beverly Hills Hotel, but I really love any 5 Star Hotel.

• My favorite movies are The Thomas Crown Affair and anything & everything James Bond.
• I closed all of my brick-and-mortar locations as of December 2011 and now I’m focusing solely on the re-launch of my online store www.lisakline.com and consulting.

• We're a quartet of performers known for our wild live performance, genre-bending sound, and unique aesthetic.
• The band was started by brothers Jeremiah and Joshua Zimmerman, who have been pursuing music since 1996, after their preacher father lead the Zimmerman family around the world.
• We recorded our eponymous debut EP in 2008, and followed up with the LP, Common Faults, in 2010, and released Cruelty and Clemency in 2011.
• We've shared the bill with performers such as Mumford and Sons, The Black Keys, MGMT, and more.
• Currently we're in the studio recording our next full length release, to be released in 2013.

• I have two Pembroke Welsh Corgis and a Chihuahua mix.
• Among my many loves are: art, food, books, rain, bright colors, tea, astronomy, and fighter jets.
• I graduated from the University of Southern California and I support the World Wildlife Fund, The Humane Society of the United States and the ASPCA.
• A little known fact about me: I’m ambidextrous!

• I was a member of Team Guy on “Rachael vs. Guy: Celebrity Cook-Off” Season Two on the Food Network.
• I’m currently attending the Art Institute of California’s Culinary School.
• My favorite L.A. Restaurant at the moment is Farfalle. It's a small Italian restaurant with a few locations around L.A.  The food is always solid. You can't go wrong with Italian food, and the atmosphere is fun, the service is great, and most of all it is kid friendly and right down the street from the house.
• Is a motorcycle enthusiast who owns a 08' Ducati Sport Classic 1000, a 09' Triumph Scrambler and a 08' Ducati 1098r.
• My Home Track is Auto Club Speedway in Fontana California. It's where I learned how to actually race. I got my novice race license through Fastrackriders and my amateur race license through WERA. Auto Cub Speedway holds a lot of memories for me. I cut my race teeth there, it was the track I first crashed at, and because it has a long straightaway, it's the first track I went 185 MPH on.
• I love to watch the show The Walking Dead.
• I’m a die-hard hockey fan and support the L.A. Kings, the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames.
• I grew up a Toronto Maple Leaf fan but after years of heartbreak not winning a cup and the owners not going out and spending some money on marquee players to help win us a cup I decided it was time to break up with the Leafs. "It's me, not you. I need to see other teams". I really fell in love with the Edmonton Oilers and the Calgary Flames. They’re small market teams that play with heart, determination and passion. Ryan Smyth, Jerome Iginla, Mike Camerelli, Deon Phaneuf are stand up guys. Now that I live in Los Angeles, I follow the Kings. What a great season they had and winning the cup was an amazing accomplishment not only for the team but for the sport of hockey. Getting more eyes on the sport here in the southwest is monumental. It is turning into a great hockey town. I love hockey period!! I love each and every team in the league. Now that Deon Phaneuf is the captain of the Leafs, I'm starting to see the Leafs again.
• I can’t live without these two kitchen gadgets: the Nutribullet and a probe thermometer.
• My hero was and still is my Mom. She raised four kids on here own in very adverse conditions and in poor health. I was baby number four and when she gave birth to me she was pronounced clinically dead. Fortunately the doctors brought her back, but her health and memory paid a heavy price. She had amnesia for six months. She worked every little odd job she could to feed and clothe us and always went without so we wouldn't have to. She was one of the most powerful, strong, smart, loving individuals to ever walk this Earth and I strive to be half the person she was-I'll get there one day.
• If I could be any superhero at all, I would want to be Batman. His costume is cool, the Bat Cave is wicked and the Bat Cycle is badass. Plus he's a millionaire playboy by day. Not a shabby life. Of course all the girls in my Batman life would be clones of Tori. Why have a hamburger when you can have cloned filet mignon?

• I was offered a Joffrey Ballet Scholarship in NYC, which is on hold, but shows my skill level as an 11 year-old dancer.

• My mom let me name my little sister so I named her Clara after my favorite ballet “The Nutcracker.”
• I’m a huge supporter of anti-bullying campaigns and speaking out to help on an elementary level. I also participated in a NO H8 campaign in support of that cause.

• I have a teen/kids jewelry line I design with Maddie my costar and best friend on “ Dance Moms.”

• You can follow me on Instagram!

• I’ve earned the nickname the Queen of Pain for my endurance feats, but really I feel like I’m more the Queen of Perseverance. I’m not lucky, nor was I handed this lifestyle/career. It’s work, there’s constant uncertainty, but the rewards are high.
• I’ve always followed my passion for adventure, and have never been afraid to take a risk … like when I was officially homeless for a number of years so I could rock climb and adventure race.  When I was homeless though I found the peaceful place in my head I call my own.
• Idaho: where the wanderer finally settled down. I’ve traveled the world and filled multiple passports. I ended up in Idaho for two reasons. 1. The mind­blowing terrain 2. The strong sense of community.
• I’m continually inspired by the great outdoors: things like climbing a peak, exploring a new country by bike, finding out what’s around the next river bend.  It never gets boring.
• But I’m also inspired by what I find inside my soul when I do endurance events.  The mind/body relationship and how my interior thought process is transformed when I’m days into a race or adventure—those are the places I continue to want to explore.
• I’m launching events and experiences now to share what I know and facilitate people (athletes and non­athletes) to find inspiration and push their limits. The SRAM Gold Rusch Tour I sponsor – which gets girls and women on bikes, some of them for the first time in years – is all about that.
• Be sure to check out my sponsor Red Bull!
• A video explaining why I do what I do.
• Watch Rebecca's Q & A videochat recorded Wednesday March 27th!
