I do think I'm lucky I met Michael. Not just Michael Douglas the actor and producer with two Oscars on the shelf, but Michael Douglas, the love of my life. I really do think it was meant to happen.
When I first met Sean Connery he was as charming and wonderful as I first anticipated. I left Rome thinking: even if I don't do this, at least I have had a day with Sean.
I buy shoes sometimes and use them as bookends. They're too beautiful to wear.
If my husband's going to kiss anybody, let it be Matt Damon.
I don't eat carbs after 17h00 and I drink skimmed milk.
Poor Hollywood! These things happen all over the world but what a great backdrop to have Hollywood in our movie. No, but I know people who divorce a lot....and have really nice houses. But I didn't model the character on anyone in particular. And if I did, I would never tell the name.
I do condition my hair with honey and beer. I smell like the bottom of a beer barrel for days afterwards, but it's very good for the hair.
I love my lawyer. I have to say that of course!

My stepson is a caring, considerate, worthy human being.

If my revelation of having bipolar II has encouraged one person to seek help, then it is worth it. There is no need to suffer silently and there is no shame in seeking help.
My mother always told me that no matter how late it is, you take your makeup off. Take it off!
