More quotes by Mara Venier

Don't trust people in show business, they're not very sincere. When you're at the top, they're all your friends, but as soon as you have a problem, they turn their backs on you.

It's very true, I wanted to be a nun. When I was little, I went to the Canossian Sisters, and there was a mother superior who was my role model, and I wanted to be like her. Then, as I grew up, I changed my mind.
