I do sometimes feel like the paparazzi are really what ran me out of L.A. They're just giving everyone a bad name.

Most people in the world have seen more of me on-screen than my kids have.

Honestly, depending on what stage I'm at in my life, my opinion on plastic surgery changes. I've never been against plastic surgery - I'm against bad plastic surgery. I'm against the overuse of plastic surgery.

When I go to work and when I'm in the public eye, I take much better care of myself. Because when I'm not working, I do indulge more.

Well, I'm very stubborn. I think I have common sense; I'm probably at times a bit tunnel-visioned, but I'm strong.

Just when you think you've got your kids figured out, they change on you. For somebody who's controlling, you can't control it. Of course, I don't think I'm controlling, but that's what I've been told!

When you're young and have a dream, it's pretty simplistic. You don't think about or have any way of knowing everything it can be, and anticipate that.

Even though I don't feel I need approval, it's still important to me to give a good performance. I'm hard on myself.

I like understanding what's underneath, what's really motivating people. When I was younger, I wanted to be a psychiatrist, so I think it has to do with that.
