After my screen test, the director clapped his hands gleefully and yelled: “She can't talk! She can't act! She's sensational!”
sunrise hollywood actresses
I must have seen more sunrises than any other actress in the history of Hollywood
jesus people long
And the news got worse. It appeared that there was this whole other person Jesus Christ whose birthday a lot of people tended to confuse with mine. I was personally outraged. It was a long time before I forgave the Lord for that.
husband years two
I suffered, I really suffered, with all three of my husbands. And I tried damn hard with all three, starting each marriage certain that it was going to last until the end of my life. Yet none of them lasted more than a year or two.
