 I didn't want to do it... I'd been trying to get out of TV for years! |
| I work out, I go to pilates, I walk and I eat everything I can get my hands on. |
| I was an idiot in terms of career-building, but I had a great time. |
| I wasn't a businesswoman, so I didn't know how to build a career. |
| My friends always said that I should be a comedienne - I was named my class clown. |
| And he was going to give me a song, because I'm a singer and I wanted to sing in everything. |
| Well, you know, I've had a very checkered career. |
| Well, it was the beginning of my film career. It was amazing to me that I got nominated for an Academy Award. |
| I remember working with Rod, though, on Chrysler Hour. I was too young and dumb to know that I was supposed to be scared of anybody or anything - like getting fired or anything like that. |
| It hasn't been smooth or delightful every minute, there were lean years and rough years, but it's been exciting and good and I'm thrilled to be an actress and a singer and to have spent my life this way. |
| I got more bands and went on the road and turn down more movies than you would believe. |
| I was always playing the hard-bitten drunk. |
| He wasn't directing it, of course, so I didn't work with Hitchcock. |
| I hope to have some more cracks at some wonderful roles before I go to the Great Beyond. |
| No, I don't belong to a retirement community. |
| I was in group therapy for years but it wasn't the same thing. It was more about growing. |
| I'm very close with Bob and his lovely, fabulous wife Catherine, too. |
| I was also the romantic lead in The Boston Strangler - I was the only one that lived to tell the story - so I called myself the romantic lead. |
| I was always telling everybody that I could be funny. |
| I had just had small parts in other films, and I'd worked with a lot of directors in TV. |
