My whole life I've had the fear that I was going to be abandoned.

Women slave for their hair! It's all about how we compare ourselves to other women, how we size ourselves up.

I think it's always best to be who you are.

I believe that you can experience very profound moments of change in life...I never would have become an actress if I hadn't dropped out of high school. As a teenager, I was so driven to pursue my dreams that I made a decision to quit school at 17 so I could find my voice as an actress and eventually the profession embraced me.

I'm not a fanatic about exercising. For me, it's about moderation and balance.

Throughout my career I have been talked out of things I wanted to do, and when I look back, I think I should have followed my instincts.

I've become really comfortable with my sexuality and making no excuses for it anymore.
