SELF PORTRAIT

- Christina Arquette

■ MY NICKNAME IS: Tina. Everyone in Arkansas calls me Tina.

■ MY FOUR BASSET HOUNDS ARE NAMED: Dallas, Luna, Lola and Lady.

■ AND THE TWO CATS: Big Daddy and Big Mama.

■ IN MY REFRIGERAT­OR YOU WILL ALWAYS FIND: I love hamburger egg rolls and you’ll always find creamer for coffee and orange juice because I drink it all day long.

■ MY WORST HABIT IS: I’m a people pleaser. I never want to disappoint anybody. That’s a bad habit, at times.

■ BEHIND MY BACK, PEOPLE SAY: Probably that I am funny.

■ THE ADVICE I WOULD GIVE MY YOUNGER SELF: Don’t catastroph­ize so much. Don’t worry so much.

■ I WOULD DESCRIBE DAVID ARQUETTE AS: Fun. He recently purchased the rights to Bozo the Clown so I think that says everything about his spirit.

■ MY FAVORITE DAVID ARQUETTE MOVIE IS: The last “Scream” was pretty awesome but “Never Been Kissed” is really it for me. That was my generation.

■ I WOULD HAVE LOVED TO HAVE DINNER WITH: Whitney Houston. I loved her so much and I had to cover her death when I was a news reporter. That was a tough one for me because I just loved her.

■ MY BIGGEST ON-AIR FLUB WAS: They asked me to do the pig call when I was on air here and I just froze because I had all of these fans yelling at me. It was one of my first live shots and I just froze.

■ MY PROUDEST ACCOMPLISH­MENT IS: My kids. I know everybody says that.

■ SOME OF THE BIGGEST STARS I’VE INTERVIEWE­D INCLUDE: Tom Cruise, Oprah [Winfrey]. I did a lot of interviews with Justin Bieber. I interviewe­d George Clooney.

■ THE ONE WORD TO DESCRIBE ME IS: Happy
