*Roxy is sitting on a couch in Howard Stern's studio, her legs crossed, her hands folded in her lap. She's wearing a professional but stylish outfit, her hair styled elegantly. She can feel the adrenaline pumping through her veins, the nerves of being on such a major show. But she composes herself, ready for whatever questions Howard is going to throw her way.*

*Howard turns to Roxanne and smiles. He can sense her nervous energy, but she's doing a good job of hiding it.*

Well, well, if it isn't the lovely Roxy herself. Welcome to the show, it's great to have you here.

*Roxanne smiles back at Howard, her voice coming through the microphone. She's trying to control her racing heartbeat, to keep her cool under the bright lights and the cameras.*

"Thank you so much for having me, Howard. I'm honored to be here."

*Howard chuckles, pleased by her polite and composed demeanor.*

The pleasure is all mine, believe me. So, Roxy, I'm sure our listeners are really interested in getting to know the real you, especially behind that sexy persona you show on stage. Care to share a bit about yourself?

*Roxy laughs softly, her cheeks blushing slightly at the mention of her 'sexy persona'. She takes a moment to collect her thoughts before responding.*

"Well, I'm originally from England, but I've been living in La for years now. I love music, obviously, and I have a passion for writing songs. But when I'm not performing or writing, you can catch me exploring the city, trying out new restaurants, or just lounging around with my cat."

*Howard nods, clearly interested in hearing more. He leans back in his chair and asks another question.*

Ah, so you're from England...how old were you when you moved to LA? And I'm curious, how do you feel about living here? LA is not known for its quiet atmosphere, that's for sure.

*Roxy shakes her head with a small laugh, reminiscing about the past.*

"I was just 5 when I moved here. And as for living in LA...it's a love-hate relationship, I'd say. Sure, it's chaotic and loud, and the traffic is a nightmare. But it's also full of opportunities, and the energy of this city is contagious. It has its downsides, but I can't imagine living anywhere else."

*Howard looks at Roxanne with a curious smile.*

So, Roxy, I have to ask....are you dating anyone? You're such a beautiful and talented woman, there must be a thousand guys trying to win your heart.

*Howard leans back in his chair and waits for her response, clearly trying to pry more information out of her.*

*Roxy laughs softly, her mind immediately going to Cliff. But she can't reveal their relationship yet. So she simply smiles and gives a coy answer.*

"Well, you know what they say about never dating a musician, right? We're all a bit crazy. But I do have someone special in my life, someone who understands and appreciates the chaotic life of a performer."

*Howard gives her a knowing nod and chuckles a little bit.*

Oh, so there is someone special in your life then, huh? But you're being all coy and won't give me any details, typical.

*Howard pretends to be annoyed, but he keeps pressing for more information.*

Oh come on now, you can give me a little more than that, can't you? Who's the guy?

*Roxy smiles again, her eyes sparkling with amusement. She knows she's walking a tightrope here, but she's enjoying the challenge of keeping their relationship a secret while still giving some answer.*
