 Because a lot of straight people think I'm nuts. |
| I'm just not comfortable with that society stuff. I mean, we were just invited to the White House, but my husband won't take me because he knows I don't want to go. |
| I like to see love stories: romantic comedy or romantic drama. |
| I'm gonna give them the advice that I always took myself, that it's better to get to know somebody before you jump into the sack with them. Because then if you jump into the sack and fall in love, and you liked them already, you're home free. |
| In a way, my past gives me a little credibility. Not that anybody cares what I did nineteen years ago, but I did have a career, and a legitimate one, before I met my husband. |
| And I like the way Cain writes his women. Very strong. They're kind of lusty, they know what they want, they're full of conviction. Cain's women are sexual. |
| The reason we shot it was that the script was geared to Las Vegas and it was something commercial that we wanted to have in the can in case Butterfly was a success and we needed a follow-up. |
| The future comes quickly. Before you know it, you turn around and it's tomorrow. |
| I actually started singing those songs six or seven years ago, when I was an opening act for Frank Sinatra. |
| When I was 21 I stopped and got married. I tried for a while to be the perfect wife, society this, society that but it wasn't working, so after about a year I went back to work. |
| If you have a guy like Jermaine, it's a pain in the neck. When we were on the road together in Europe, Jesus, I had to kick the girls off of him. I mean, they throw themselves on the floor and take off their hats. |
| But there's not enough time in life to go sit at a party, have a drink, and make idle conversation. There's too many important things to do. Just being together with my husband, spending time alone, which I have very little of. |
| The thing you do is escape from them by immersing myself in the character you're playing. |
| I don't like to go to the movies to see violence or some kind of spy thing with all kinds of information you have to assimilate to understand the plot. |
| Basically, I'm a romantic. |
| You know, it was important for me to do something like that, because nobody ever really thought I could do anything except look sexy on a poster and go shopping. |
| Film, I think, is my medium. |
| You know, it's not the people in Hollywood who go to see movies that will make a movie successful; it's the people all around the country; it's word-of-mouth. |
| One of the themes of Butterfly is incest. Before now, I don't think people could deal with the subject. Now that there have been exposes in major magazines and on television shows, and several films, the subject is at least more out in the open. |
| Then I went through a whole bunch of crap with my lousy movies and pop records. I had people behind me kind of steering me in that direction, but it wasn't really my bag. |
