thinking spas lost
I think I've lost 3lbs - I'm very, very happy. I thought of it as work and a spa.
children kissing lips
Mick Jagger could French-kiss a moose. He has child-bearing lips.
stars children hate
I've always hate child stars, starting from way back when, when I was a child. The first child star I saw was Shirley Temple. She was six years old, two foot six and the biggest star in Hollywood. She wore ribbons in her hair, and frilly little pinafores and shiny patent-leather tap shoes - just like the boys in Glee do.
children kids gay
I love gay and lesbian parents. But I think we need a law that says lesbians and gay men have to raise their children together. This way, the kids would not only know how to build bookshelves, but they'd also instinctively know how to decorate them.
careers loops radar
I am so out of the loop. I am never honored. My career is hilarious to me. I am either under the radar or over the radar.
wrecks ifs
If you're not a wreck in this business, you're not around.
girl done stitches
Because I'm the only performer who comes out and says I've had plastic surgery, I've become the plastic surgery poster girl, which is hilarious, because everybody has done it and they all deny it. They stand there, like the Bride of Frankenstein, they've all got stitches, and they all say, 'I've done nothing.' I talk about it.
perfect meals would-be
My perfect last meal would be: shrimp cocktail, lasagna, steak, creamed spinach, salad with bleu cheese dressing, onion rings, garlic bread, and a dessert of strawberry shortcake.
daughter believe book
Welcome to my world! I've been through it all, and I often pinch myself to believe my luck. I design jewlery, create cosmetics, perform comedy, act, lecture, write books, travel, have a fabulous daughter, and a phenomenal grandson-and I feel I'm the luckiest woman on the planet.
friends new-york knowing
Sold my house in LA, packed myself up and moved to New York, not knowing anybody. Friends are very hard to make after a certain age.
thinking years today
Since I met him ten years ago there hasn't been a day that I didn't think of George Burns. And I didn't think of him again today.
men making-love clean
Don't cook. Don't clean. No man will ever make love to a woman because she waxed the linoleum.
style said one-thing
My personal style is over-the-top dowager. The old days they said get dressed and take one thing off, I say get dressed and put one thing on.
proud dykes damn
I am a dyke! And I'm damn proud of it!
