_{I want to act. I really do. I had enough of all that Hollywood shit. I guess I looked pretty good, but there were so many girls out there who looked better. You should see it. It’s like a beauty contest. I guess I was lucky…for a while.}

_{They tell you to cry one tear, and if you feel two and therefore cry two, it’s no good. If you change ‘the’ to ‘a’ in your lines, they correct you. An actress is not a machine, but they treat you like one. A money machine.}

_{I did what they said, and all it got me was a lot of abuse. Everyone’s just laughing at me. I hate it. Big breasts, big ass, big deal. Can’t I be anything else? Gee, how long can you be sexy?}
