Be sure that the reason you are in the business is not to be a star, but because you love the craft of acting. If you have a real passion for it and acting is what you want to do every day, you are much more likely to be successful. If being a star is your primary goal, you may end up being very disappointed.
They sent me to catechism classes and then to first grade in a Catholic school, and apparently I cried and moaned and bitched so much that they took me out.
The shoulder pads were very powerful-and made the waist and hips look smaller, too.
Somebody like me doesn't get arthritis, doesn't get all the other diseases that come along. Well, it happened to me.
I did a video... and now I have an eye-makeup kit out. I did the video because I got so many letters. I did my own makeup.
I was brought up Catholic, and my family is still very religious.
One of my favorite movies is The Little Foxes.

My message is - keep moving. If you do, you'll keep arthritis at bay.
