From New York magazine, about the moderate-liberal Democratic mayor of Newark, New Jersey.: "Booker, 43, won’t directly comment on his romantic status, but
says: 'Let’s just put it this way, my mom, who has gone through phases
in my life about what she bugs me about, now her quest is to see her son
in blissful matrimony. And I’m nowhere near that, but it would be a
wonderful thing to experience. And this job does make it very hard to
get to that end. I definitely have frustrated exes out there.'"
The article continues: "It’s perhaps unsurprising when Newark’s heroic mayor tells me he relaxes
by binge-watching sci-fi and superhero shows: 'It’s really embarrassing
to tell you this, but you’ve got me really tired and I have no filters —
I’m actually on Season 6 of Smallville,' he says of the series about a teenage Superman. When I tell him Smallville’s Kristin Kruek is now starring in the CW’s Beauty and the Beast, he is overjoyed. 'Lana’s in Beauty and the Beast?! Oh my gosh! I want to check that out. Oh my gosh. I’m so happy she landed somewhere. Oh, wow!'"
