I LOVE her!

Thank you for this interview!

When I logged on this morning and saw her name and face, I was like a little kid! I started squeeling and giggling and I just HAD to read it at that very moment.

She is an amazing talent and so wonderfully spoken...
Her views on life, beauty and society are amazing....

Nice article! And small world: I had dinner tonight with a female pal who knows Lynch casually who says he is the most fascinating person she's ever heard speak on pretty much any topic. I'm very much not a starfucker myself but Lynch is someone I wish I knew, and knew well enough to have those kind of chats with.

Anyway, Recchia's work is fantastic and I am glad to see her profiled here. Cheers!

I love Nelly. She is so sweet, very shy...but amazingly talented. I had the pleasure of working with her on one of my video productions and highly recommend her. She is well worth it... xoxo.
