I hate myself on the screen. I want to die ... my voice is either too high or too gravelly. I want to dive under the carpet.... I'd love to be tall and willowy ... I'm short.

I never face the day without perfume.

I don't have a short temper, I just have a quick reaction to bullshit

My forties are the best time I have ever gone through.

Now is the time for guts and guile.

I like the connection with fans and people who have been supportive of me. And I love the idea of real feedback and a two-way street, which is very, very modern.

I haven't read any of the autobiographies about me.
