When I was young, I wanted to be a movie star. But I realized that you have no control being an actor. So I went to architecture school in NYC, because I was crazy about buildings. Then I began to realize that I got more excited about Vogue coming out each month than I was about my projects.
At first, when you go to premieres and award shows, you're thinking, 'How the hell am I here? All these people I've never met are here, and it's so cool!' And then, as time goes on, it's a little bit like, 'Ah... it's more like work.'
I wouldn't necessarily be star-struck. I haven't been yet. But I don't know what happens in the future - maybe one day I will be. You never know.
I don't do the whole L.A. nightlife thing.
Being a movie star is stressful as hell. You've got to do crunches all day long. You've got to get up and learn lines.
I never did pal around with actresses. Their talk usually bored me to tears.
Hollywood is a great place if you're an orange.
I love Amanda Lear, Michelle Pfeiffer, Sharon Stone.
Personally, I hate waiking the red carpet. You are expected to conform to every single expectation. People will say, "Try as hard as you can not to sweat on the red carpet." Meanwhile you are super nervous, and there are tons of camera flashes, and people are screaming your name. It's not fun - not for me, at least!
You meet people in Hollywood that are famous, and you're not sure what they got famous for.
The whole celebrity culture thing - I'm fascinated by, and repelled by, and yet I end up knowing about it.
I don't do many social events in the fashion industry. Instead, I go to things like the MTV awards because that's where I fit in - wearing a yellow tuxedo and no shirt on a red carpet.
As an actor, Hollywood would be a horrible place to go if you weren't actually invited.
Showbiz is great if you're successful.
People in magazines are 50% bimbo and 50% pregnant women.
I see all the red carpet paparazzi stuff and I'm like, 'Really? Do I have to?!' I like to work and I know that's part of the job. But you kind of take it in stride.
Me and my brother Sunny never had the enthusiasm of visiting a film set or going to a screening or attending parties and meeting actors.
People say that [i'm a celebrity], but I've only had to sign autographs for "civ-libs" types. And I autograph court orders.
If it wasn't so pointless and ridiculous, it would be more humiliating. Also, if there [Hollywood] weren't so many people as bad as myself - equally untalented people - it would be even more humiliating.
The first red carpet I did was at New York's Paris Theatre... It was this beautiful night, and everyone is screaming my name. I'm the least pretentious actress you can ever meet. Someone said to me that I look like I've been doing this forever, and I said that's because I watch E!
I don't much care for Hollywood, I'd rather have a nice cup of cocoa.
This is a big surprise I don't agree with the concept of award ceremonies, but I'm prepared to make an exception for the ones I'm nominated for. The last time there was a naked man covered in gold paint in my house, it was me.
It's weird doing red carpets; it's uncomfortable. But you can have a sense of humor about it.
Hollywood ... the most sensational merry-go-around ever built.
I'm not a movie star and I know that.
