Here’s an excerpt from her column:
Q: How much privacy do super-successful public figures deserve? Do the infidelities of Tiger Woods or former presidential candidate John Edwards change your perceptions of them?
Kristina: For me, it is a matter of honesty and trust. If these individuals are being dishonest with their wives and families, who should be the most important people in their lives, they can’t be trusted to be honest with the public.

Kristina on Reality TV
In last week’s Washington Post column On Success, Reston Limousine CEO and President Kristina Bouweiri addressed whether the culture of celebrity and reality TV eroding our understanding of what constitutes success.
Here’s an excerpt:
I don’t think reality TV is eroding our understanding of what constitutes success. I don’t measure my success from being on a reality TV show, and I know my children understand this as well. Many celebrities have to work hard to maintain their success, many understand that money does not buy happiness, and they have as much stress on them as everyone else. And, there is a big price to pay when you are a celebrity … you will never have privacy again!
