I've done a basic bit of clean-up, but this article still needs a lot of improvement, starting with extensive copyediting. It has been largely cribbed from official biographies and it shows in the unencyclopedic promotional tone and cherry-picked quotes. It also had commentary clearly added by the subject herself (or an associate) which had no source in independently published material. I've removed it per Wikipedia's policy on no original research.

Update. I've done a considerable amount of re-writing and re-structuring. It turned out that large chunks of the article were virtually verbatim from her website and/or that of her management—not only a copyright violation, but the source of much of the puffery. The article still needs better referencing. Voceditenore (talk) 16:00, 29 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
