My mother apparently had a very hard labor. So she was kind of pissed. So she named me after my father's ex girlfriend. (Like 6 years after the fact.) So, he would say my name all the time, with a smile. She never would :-) OMG, thats hilarious!

I was actually going to be named Roberto. When I was inside my mothers stomach, apparently the ambilicable(?) cord, was between my legs, so they thought, it was a penis, and I was a boy. (Ultrasounds, were not very perfected, WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYY back then.) So when I came out a girl, they just changed the "O" to an "A". Roberta.

I think foreign people have an exotic kind of beauty, unlike americans have. Ha! That's the first time somebody said I was an exotic. I'll take it! Foreign chicas are cool as hell. The Brit part of me is too obvious. And I stick out when I go to the beach Im like a vampire. Crazy. I didn't ask for this man! Please someone grant me the ability to look orange for once. You got the exotic look going on too girl. We unique bishes we are

My middle name is after my mother's roommate in college. Which I always thought was a bit strange.

I was named after the actress Gloria Jean. She was still living last time I checked. I emailed her and she answered. She was in her 70's.

From what I was always told, my name was preplanned, in case a boy ever came along - which is supposed to be a big deal with Italian families - it was with my grandparents, anyway (my paternal ancestry is Italian). For a first name, I was named after my Italian grandfather - which I'm very proud of, 'cause he was cool; with my old man's name thrown in for a middle name (that's OK, years ago, a fellow performer and friend gave me a new middle name - "F**kin' ").
