Personal
quotes
"He's the kindest, most loving man ever. There's nobody like him, because
nobody can be that fabulous. I've worked with him three times and we have a
lot in common. We don't like to talk to other actors while we're working and
we just deal with the director. The impact Johnny had on people was amazing
to watch. Forget the women - even the guys followed him around. They'd offer
to carry his coffee cups, roll his cigarettes or wear a hat from his club The
Viper Room. He's the coolest guy ever. That man is 39 and still looks 22. And
to those people who might think I'm cool, I'd like to point out that I haven't
slept with someone as cool as Kate Moss, like Johnny did. But he's strictly
off limits to me. He's married and that rules him out. Also, the first time
we met I was nine and he was already 27, so I can't imagine it." (about
Johnny Depp)
"I spend
a lot of time with my mother. When I'm doing movies, she's always with me. We
spend days being bored in an apartment together waiting for someone to call
and say I'm needed for a shot. Because we're together so much, we have to get
along. We have to find ways to get to know each other. We've gone through a
lot of stuff, you know, and I think we're pretty close."
"I'm very
shy. I can't even act that well when the camera's not on. I get really embarassed."
“For years,
I hated myself. I covered the mirrors in my house. I literally couldn't have
a mirror in my room. I still can't sit in a restaurant or someplace where I
can catch my reflection. I get so paranoid.”
”I certainly
hope I'm not still answering child-star questions by the time I reach menopause."
" Now my body
is really womanly - a little too much so. It's someting I can fall back on.
When I don't know what else to do, I stick my chest out."
"I like the
way my own feel smell. I love to smell my sneakers when I take them off."
- Movieline. November 1999.
" I don't
know who Peter Lorre is. Pathetic right? It shows you how completely gross and
uncultured my generation is." - Movieline. November 1999.
"W called
me 'the young Delta Burke.' It's so silly. I weigh 105 pounds and wear a size
two, but for some reason I'm a heavyweight." - Movieline. November 1999.
"Nobody's
kissing my ass, unfortunately. I could use a little. But then again, my personality
isn't conducive to butt-kissing." - Movieline. November 1999.
