I wandered around not knowing what I was doing in The Great Waldo Pepper and feeling pretty lost, and they rightly cut my part down. I don't think I was in very good emotional shape. I think I was a bit of a mess. I'd done about six movies back-to-back, and was in a state of complete exhaustion.

The thing about being famous is, it's weird. The only people who get how weird it is are other famous people.

Being pretty crazy while being chased by the National Enquirer is not good. The British tabloids were the worst.
