For The First Time In My Life,

Growing Up, I Looked Up To Real Women. I Didn't Go In For Hero Worship And I Still Don't. Everybody Has Feet Of Clay.

I've Tried To Divide My Time Between The Us And New Zealand, But It's Difficult, And I Suddenly Realized That I Like Acting Here In Los Angeles Anyway. Because When You First Come Here; Especially From New Zealand, You Go, This Is The Ugliest, Nastiest, Grayest, Smoggiest Town In The World, And Then Your Scale Of Beauty Adjusts And Suddenly You Think, Oh, Isn't It Beautiful, Not Too Much Smog Today!

When You Decide To Become An Opera Singer, It's A Commitment That Allows Nothing Else To Interfere. Even Your Family - And I Have A Young Daughter - Has To Take Second Place.

We Live At The Edge Of The World, So We Live On The Edge. Kiwis Will Always Sacrifice Money And Security For Adventure And Challenge.

Who I Think Is Actually Doing Great Things For The Appearance Of Women Is That Kardashian Girl. Kim Kardashian Is Giving An Alternative. I Don't Know Very Much About Her And I Don't Read Articles, But Just Looking At The Pictures You Go, "great! There's A Girl With An Ass, And That's Fabulous. On Behalf Of All Girls With Asses, Thank You."
