I would invite Justin Bieber, because he is our age and he’s gotten
so far in his career, and his music is inspiring and phenomenal.
What would I say to him?! I’d scream then tell him I love him and
adore him and love his work; I would also ask him how he got his
hair like that? What up!?
I would like to serve him rice with lamb, falafel and tabouleh with
harees and shawarma...well, and maybe spaghetti too.

I would invite Beyonce, because she’s very inspiring and I admire
how down to earth she is and how she’s extremely modest.
I would ask her how she deals with everything such as, helping
out with African children and how she stays on stage for a long
time with high heels?
I would take Beyonce for Chinese because it’s my favourite and it
is from a different culture. I would take her to Shanghai Surprise,
my favorite restaurant.

My life time hero is Haile Gabreselassie, a famous Ethiopian
runner, because of his determination and his hard work in life.
I would thank him for being such an inspiring person and tell him
that he has totally changed my perspective on life.
I would serve him Injera, my favorite cultural food.

I would invite Lauran Conrad because I like the job that she has
and she is really nice and she has many charities and also her own
clothes line.
I would ask her what inspires her to do her work, and what regrets, if
any, she has about her past.
I would serve her a roast dinner because it’s my favorite type of food.
