Everything looks good. This review was added sadly in ~10m after you posted this, I wanted to do it in ~5m too but checking few things took longer than I thought. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:39, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you! Yoninah (talk) 11:41, 2 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@Yoninah: I want this for Prep 1 but can you add one more sentence to the lead to avoid {{Lead too short}}. What makes her a notable socialite or actress? --- C&C (Coffeeandcrumbs) 11:09, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I can add more information, but not today. Yoninah (talk) 11:48, 19 June 2020 (UTC)[reply]
