dad artist hands
My dad has always just had a lot of faith in me as an artist and as a person, and he doesn't really dispense with a lot of advice when it comes to the music. He's taught me a lot over the years, but when I was taking on this project he's really hands-off about that. He just appreciates what I've done and is very supportive, and of course really proud.
money daddy your-dad
Did you work for the money to buy those earrings? Or did your Daddy buy those for you?
appreciation dad home
I grew up in a home filled with music and had an early appreciation of jazz since my dad was a jazz musician. Beginning at around age three I started singing with his band and jazz music has continued to be one of my three passions along with acting and writing. I like to say jazz music is my musical equivalent of comfort food. It’s always where I go back to when I want to feel grounded,
depends maybe movies script turned
You never know when you read a script how it's going to turn out because so much depends on the collaboration between people. If I'd been in some of the movies I turned down, maybe they wouldn't have been a success.
draw eyebrows grow half shaved time
I do regret, as I described in my book, the time that I shaved off half of my eyebrows thinking that I could draw them in better - and they would grow back anyway.
brat
I've been called the Women's Auxiliary of the Brat Pack.
thinking trying actresses
Automatically everybody thinks of me as an actress who is trying to sing. And if I weren't me I'd probably think the same thing.
book grace important
Books have always been really important to me; they're my saving grace.
writing people perceive
I don't have control over how people choose to perceive me. The only thing I have control over is my writing.
kids people sometimes
Sometimes when people have kids young, they're not ready.
real kids animal
Usually the kids are portrayed as very one-dimensional. Like these mindless animals that just have three things on their minds: getting laid, getting drunk, and driving real fast over Mulholland Drive.
hero kids parent
I can't stand films that make the kids out to be heroes and the parents to be imbeciles.
beautiful people guy
I'm really intimidated by beautiful people. Beautiful guys, especially.
writing thinking hard
I think we do live in a very specialized society, where once you think about somebody as one thing, it's hard to change that. But I do a lot of things. I act, I write, I sing.
