I just found out today that I am on the cover of Cosmopolitan Magazine in Turkey this month. Cosmopolitan Magazine has a number of international editions all around the world that run in various territories, and when I did this shoot for the international covers I had no idea that Turkey was planning to run my story on their cover THIS month, considering Genocide Remembrance Day is this month. My Armenian heritage means a lot to me and I’ve been brought up to be incredibly proud of my family’s background and culture so as an Armenian-American woman it is a huge honor for me to be on the first ever Armenian Cosmopolitan cover (pic above.)
I have an amazing relationship with Cosmopolitan Magazine. World-over, Cosmo is known as a fun and inspiring magazine for women of all races, shapes, sizes, regardless of their political beliefs and I really hope that if I can bring awareness to the issue, then this in an accomplishment.
My Thanksgiving was very calm and just perfect! Reggie and I went to eat at Bobby and Khadijah‘s. My family was home in LA spending it with my little sisters, Kourt and Khloe, while Rob was in NYC with Adrienne and her family, and Reggie’s family came to New Orleans a few days before Thanksgiving because they had to be home with Reggie’s little brother on actual Thanksgiving, so it was just the two of us! Even though Reggie didn’t play that weekend, he wasn’t allowed to leave New Orleans, due to team rules.
Khadijah’s mom cooked and so did I! We ate so much we were so full and just laid on the couch stuffed!
We had a turkey, fried turkey, honey baked ham, mac ‘n cheese, sweet potato souffle, cabbage, corn bread, cranberry sauce and so much more!
