I'm a light sleeper, but so long as I'm wearing earplugs, I sleep well.
I would teach U.K. parents how to stop their children throwing litter. London is a beautiful city but its streets are disgusting.
George Hamilton is one of the funniest men I have ever known.
Fame overcomes everything.
I used to collect vintage clothing - exquisite lace dresses, embroidered shawls and ornate jewelry - but that's just not me any more.
Back then I was called Dumbo because of my ears. I was called Fatty, too. It was hurtful so I became like the class clown. I became the one who was kicked around.
As for the stage fright, it never goes away. When I'm waiting in the wings to go on, it's agony every single time but I stay focused and I know that once I'm on stage it'll be fine; I'll be in my happy little bubble.
Think of your pension and start saving. Like my father, I have been a spendthrift, and I regret that.
I broke my ankle ten years ago so high heels are not an option unless I'm literally going door to door for a function.
I dieted all the time in the Sixties, but we had no idea what dieting meant - we thought it meant not eating anything.
I listen to my body, I give it things it wants and I eliminate things it doesn't want.
I say I don't sleep with married men, but what I mean is that I don't sleep with happily married men.
I don't sleep with happily married men.
I was never particularly wild, just very busy and often didn't think about what I was putting into my body. Today things are very different. I stopped smoking in my late 30s; I avoid wheat and gluten as this makes me feel bloated and sluggish; exercise regularly and bounce out of bed.
