- I saw a picture,
and I'm really impressed that you did this,
'cause it's very adventurous.
You're ziplining. Where is this?
- That is in Hawaii. - Wow.
- It was on a summer vacation last year.
- Had you--You look very comfortable doing it.
- I got dared to do that. - Was that your first time?
- Yeah, that was my first time ziplining.
- And you liked it, 'cause, I mean, look at that.
That's like you're just going, "I don't care."
- [chuckles]
You should've seen me after. - Yeah, really?
But was it scary? - Yeah.
I mean, it was really high up in the middle of these woods,
and water was underneath.
It was, you know-- but I got dared.
I'm a daredevil.
If you dare me to do something,
unless I see immediate death in my future,
I will try it.
That's me.
- If it's not immediate but it's sort of close,
you'll do it?
- Probably. - I see.
Really? I didn't know that about you.
Like, what else have you done daredevil-ish besides that?
- Probably the scariest thing was,
I pet a great white shark in the open sea.
- You--you--you petted a great white shark.
- Yeah, like this. - What size--
What area of the shark did you pet?
Near the head? - His head.
From his head all the way down to his tail.
- How big was he? - Huge.
As big as great whites are. I don't know how big he was.
- Well, they get to be really big.
You can't pet the whole--
because he would have to move far, far away.
- No, it's moving. It's going by the boat.
I'm on a boat, and the guy says to me,
"You really gonna do this?" I said, "Yeah."
He goes, "Okay, so I'm gonna tether you to the boat."
I said, "You're gonna tie me to the boat?"
He says, "Yes," and I said, "Why?"
He said, "Well, you know, great whites are lightning fast.
"He could turn around and snap at you,
"so I'd rather him snap your arm off
than take your whole body off this boat."
And I said--He goes, "Are you gonna do it?"
I said, "Yeah, think I can live without an arm."
[laughs]
- Wow. - Did it.
- That's bold. And what do they feel like?
They're kind of, like, rough.
- No, they're not rough. They're cold and very slimy.
Cold like in a freezer cold. - Really?
- Yeah, very cold and soft and slimy.
- Did you then respect them more that you did that,
because you touched it?
- I respected myself more.
[laughter]
That's for sure.
- I respect you for doing that too.
That's pretty amazing.
- But, yeah, I had a healthy respect for them anyway,
but when you touch a great white like that,
you can feel the power in its skin,
the electricity going through it.
He's quite a formidable, you know...
- Yeah. - Animal of the sea.
- Yeah, we should leave them alone.
They're pretty amazing. - We should leave them alone.
- They're not trying to hurt us.
- They don't really want to eat us.
If they bite us, they spit us out.
- Yeah.
- They really don't want to eat--
- No, they don't. They really don't.
But now they're gonna start coming up
thinking we're gonna pet them, so now--
Look what you've gone and done.
Let's talk about your lingerie.
So this is not-- I mean, this is not--
It's what you sell.
We didn't bring stuff from your drawer.
- But this is in my drawer. - It is in your drawer.
- These things are in my drawer.
- Okay, so what made you decide to buy the company
and make it your company?
- Well, I was in Paris one of these times tooling around,
and I saw this really beautiful lingerie line
called Scandale Paris.
And the woman at the shop said to me,
"You know, this is a very beautiful line.
"It's way too expensive for anybody to buy,
so it's kind of going out of business."
And right in that moment, I got the idea,
"What if I could buy this company
"and bring this beautiful lingerie to North America
"but put it at a price point that every woman could afford?
And, like, sell it"--
And sell it in--
- I'm showing it off. - In Target.
- I'm showing them the back.
It's complete-- It's very sexy.
I'm showing it off.
So you--are you sure that that's what they said?
Were they speaking French when they told you?
Maybe you don't know what they were saying.
Maybe they were just trying--
and you bought the whole company, going,
"Wow, this lady, I was just trying to sell her a bra."
- No, they were speaking English,
and I could feel it, and I could see how beautiful it was.
And I thought, "This is a great thing to bring back home
"and sell it at Target,
where people can really afford beautiful, sexy lingerie."
- Because there--
[cheers and applause]
- It's beautiful.
All the laces... - Yeah.
- Are beautiful, of quality.
It's a good value.
- This is the one I'm wearing right now under this.
- That's the dream bra. - Yes, I know.
And there are--they're, like, $17 or something affordable.
- $17. - That's great for lingerie.
Are you--were you into lingerie before?
Obviously you went to buy some. - Yeah, yeah, I'm big--
And being married to a Frenchman,
you kind of have to be.
- Really? Is that part of it?
- That's part of it. - All right.
So if you want a Frenchman...
[laughter]
I always thought it was the beret,
but it turns out--
Lingerie.
