I've had so many challenges throughout my career, however successful people perceive me to be.

I am a survivor. I am like a cockroach, you just can't get rid of me.

I'm obsessed with clowns and what they represent and the idea that clowns are supposed to make you laugh, but inevitably they're hiding something. That's how I look at my life.

In America it is not considered to be mentally ill when a woman advances on her prey in a discotheque setting with hardy cocktails present.

In my coming-of-age time, there was no internet, no social networking, nothing. It was just show after show, hoping one day somebody would notice you.

Obviously, my tastes and my priorities have changed. But I'm still asking the question 'Why?' Just because I'm a mother doesn't mean I'm not still a rebel and that I don't want to go in the face of convention and challenge the system. I never wanted to think in a robotic way, and I don't want my children to think that way, either.

People have this idea that if you're sexual and beautiful and provocative, then there's nothing else you could possibly offer.
