I try to be feminine, yet intellectual and smart at the same time. You don't see enough of that.

There's a fine line between being private and being ashamed.

I've had so many interviews where the last question is, Are you gay? I had to find very creative ways to say that I was gay, but that I wasn't going to talk about it.

Every animal has its own intelligence and sensitivities. They're all lovely, worthwhile, and deserving of our respect.

I would eat 300 calories a day - a lot of Jell-O and no-sugar everything, of course. I was doing Pilates, weight-training, circuit training; over lunch I would run on a treadmill in my dressing room with a fan on my face so I wouldn't sweat my makeup off.

And I somehow always felt less lonely when I was completely alone.

I have a very, very healthy relationship with food in that I eat whatever I want, whenever I want. I never restrict quantities or types of food.
