Since 1997, mezzo-soprano Kumiko Mori, 46, has played Madame Thenardier more than 2,000 times in the hugely successful Japanese stage production of "Les Miserables." A couple of times a week she can be seen on a variety of shows ranging from travel and food specials to talk shows and comedies. She's also published a cookbook of her original recipes, appeared on more than 30 CDs and released two of her own. She says that being in the limelight that much has not blurred but sharpened her vision..
The key to a successful life is to treat yourself very well. I am so good to myself, so I have a large capacity to be nice to others as well, too. My husband is very similar, so we pamper ourselves and each other.
My husband is my best friend, but there is no need to tell him everything.When coming home, if I happen to be having any negative thoughts, I just replace them with ideas to surprise him and make him laugh. He does the same for me, so we always have fun. Our home is a sanctuary.
