When I started acting, I was told over and over again, 'You're no good.' But I said to myself, 'You've got to keep it up.'

I think it's important that kids have responsibilities and understand the value of things, but I think it's great I get to travel the world with my daughter.

Imagine if I'd said, 'I have to be the best actress - I want that and nothing else.' I never would have directed. I never would have produced. I never would have done a beauty line. I would have just worried about getting a job or been frustrated that I wasn't getting the job that I wanted. I was ready to be a businesswoman.

It doesnt matter what you have faith in, just that you have faith.

What you need is one black dress I call Plan B. It doesn't have to be fabulous, it just looks good, covers up the problems and is neutral enough for dinner, business, a date, a funeral. You don't overwear it, you don't overwash it, because the Plan B is - gold.

This is not love. It is a crime... You can't look the other way just because you have not experienced domestic violence with your own flesh.

I'm not a skinny girl. I push it. I'm at the limit of chubbiness at all times, but I'm happy at all times.
