Q&A with Tricia Keane
1. First thing I do in the morning is…
I have a cup of coffee! Once I am coherent, I grab my I-phone and check my e-mail. I always go right to the overnight ratings so I can see how Channel 13 stacked up the day before. It’s my report card so to speak. I have been in the news business for over 20 years so it’s part of my morning ritual!
2. One thing I like to do after work is…
After I have worked a full day Anchoring the 5, 6, 6:30 and 11pm newscasts at Channel 13, I am mentally wiped out from my day! So I go home and enjoy watching ”The Real Housewives” franchise on BRAVO. Mindless reality TV on Bravo Channel is a guilty pleasure!
3. One of my favorite Las Vegas restaurants is…
I love SPAGO at Caesars Forum Shoppes! I love EVERYTHING on the menu, especially the Ahi Tuna. You can’t go wrong with a pizza and Lemon Drop Cocktail. I also love Wolfgang Puck’s Bar and Grill at MGM Grand. I love the Classic Chinois Salad. They also have authentic homemade passion fruit iced tea, which I love.
4. One of my favorite Las Vegas shows is…
Michael Jackson ONE at Mandalay Bay. I just saw this show with my family. I am a big Michael Jackson fan from a very young age- I grew up in Encino, California where the Jackson Family made their home, too. The show is an awesome tribute to one amazing artist! I was so impressed with the Cirque Cast. It’s a must see!
5. I wish I knew how to…
Break Dance! LOL, It looks so fun.
6. A person who inspires me the most is…
My son. I have always been inspired by broadcast leaders in my profession like Oprah Winfrey. But now that I am a mother, my son inspires me to be the best I can be. He has shown me a higher love that I never thought was possible.
7. When I leave Las Vegas I like to go to…
Newport Coast, California. It’s a special place to visit!
8. I wish I could quit…
Starting and stopping working out. I need to stay consistent!
9. On my day off I like to…
Spend time with my family! My son loves hotels and room service, so our family enjoys “stay-cations” when we don’t have time to leave town. I also LOVE to shop for clothes and furniture!
10. One thing I wish I were better at…
Tennis and Golf. When I retire one day, I will take up both games!
11. One thing/person I can’t live without is…
My husband, Rick! I found my soul mate in life! He truly is my partner and best friend.
12. My one strange habit is…
I sleep with my right leg propped up and so does my son! I can’t fall asleep any other way. LOL… it must be hereditary.
