I was supposed to go to drama school and then go to New York and do theatre. But I grew up on all those fabulous movies and had read all the bold Hollywood books, and I thought I just had to take a look.

I don't like to be labeled as lonely just because I am alone.

And we live in a French Quarter a lot of the time, in New Orleans. And the camaraderie of everybody there. Everybody takes care of each other.

It's tourists in New York. Everything is geared towards that. It's so hard on Broadway now for them to get people in there. They have to compete with so many other entertainments, so they have to bring a star in which puts people there out of work.

For a while I was living in New Orleans for like 4, 5 years. I had just come back to town.

I get in my golf cart with my dogs, I have five dogs.

I love comedy; so you want to make them happy, make them laugh.
