Love Quote by Angie Everhart

"Rock 'n' roll... but I also like sporting events a lot. I love Mike Piazza"

About this Quote

Rock 'n' roll... but I also like sporting events a lot. I love Mike Piazza feels like a late-90s celebrity soundbite engineered to be replayable: three short beats that toggle between “cool” (music), “relatable” (sports), and “safe crush” (a famous athlete). Angie Everhart isn’t trying to deliver a philosophy; she’s curating an identity in public, where being legible matters more than being deep. The ellipsis does real work here. It’s a pivot that acknowledges the expected script (models like rock 'n' roll) and then swerves into a second script (models are also “one of the guys,” down for games). That tiny stumble reads like spontaneity, which is the currency of celebrity interviews.

The Mike Piazza tag is the clincher. Piazza, the Mets’ superstar heartthrob of that era, wasn’t just a baseball player; he was pop culture shorthand for clean, mainstream desire. Saying “I love Mike Piazza” offers a crush that’s passionate but non-threatening: it signals heterosexual appeal, taps into New York sports glamour, and keeps the speaker positioned as a fan, not a provocateur. It’s also a strategic name-drop that borrows his authenticity. Sports fandom suggests loyalty and knowledge, traits that counter the “model as empty surface” stereotype without challenging it too aggressively.

Underneath, you can hear the mechanics of fame at the time: women in visibility were expected to be sexy, but also likable; aspirational, but approachable. This line lands because it performs that balancing act in under ten seconds.
