“In return, it was really strange, I mean, to become a sex symbol like before I even knew what it was. Like, I didn’t know what it meant to be sexy.”
She said that when she was in the 30s, she began to re -examine her teenage year in Hollywood.

“It was the part that I took away from everything at the time. And I felt the right responsibility of carrying it, carrying it in a way that felt like I was making the right to be someone’s, as a role model.”
