I Was Always The Girl Who Wore

All Of My Friends Are Animal People. To Me, Cats Are People, Too. Animals Are People, Too. I Travel A Lot And When I Go Overseas, It's Really Hard On Me Because The Animals Are Treated Much Differently, Especially In Developing Countries.

When I First Moved To L.a., I Didn't Have A Lot Of Money To Join A Gym Or Take Classes, So I Improvised. My Sister And I Went To The Library And Looked Over Their Dvd Collection And Discovered Neena And Veena, These Egyptian Twins Who Have A Whole Series Of Belly Dancing Routines. We Did Them All.

There Are A Lot Of Recent Pics Of Me Rocking Silk Strings Of Beads. They're Made By Survivors Of The Sex Trade In Cambodia Who Were Rescued By One Of The Organizations I Support.

I Always Wanted To Be An Actress. I Couldn't Imagine Being Anything Else.

But If An Actress Asks Me My Opinion, I Would Tell Her There Are A Million Different Designers Who Make Faux Fur. If You Like That Look, Wear Faux Fur. If You're Doing It On The Red Carpet, You're Doing It For How It Looks. Faux Fur And Real Fur Look The Same On Camera.
