My favorite scene that I ever filmed was singing "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" from the balcony of the Casa Rosada in Argentina [where the real Eva Peron once stood] during Evita. That was amazing. SO real and surreal. Bizarre.
My nature is to provoke, that's true. I can't help myself. But it's always with good intentions.
I am not reinventing myself. I am going through the layers and revealing myself. I am on a journey, an adventure that's constantly changing shape.
Its boring not to take risks
Some people out there think everything I do is a publicity stunt, they think when I go to the bathroom it's a publicity stunt.
I know there's a lot of competition in the world of magazines and newspapers and we have to make headlines and be sensational and sell, and saying bad things about me is going to sell more papers than writing good things about me.
I wouldn't say I wanna conquer the world anymore. But I want to be a part of making the world a better place. I want to inspire people and I wanna be part of the solution.
Manipulating people, that's what I'm good at
I want to keep growing and living life to the fullest for as long as I'm on this planet.
The thing I like least about being famous is being overly scrutinized for everything I say and do.
I am a tip-top starlet. That is my job that I am paid to do.
I'm so used to people slagging me off. Since the beginning of my career I've been told I have no talent, I can't sing and I'm a one-hit wonder.
Every time I reach a new peak, I see a new one I want to climb.
The thing I love most about being famous is people listening to me when I have something important to say.
