I Had A Video Made Of My

Remember, I Come From Such An Excessively Overdone, Red-carpet Place Called Hollywood. So I'm Used To People Blowing Up Their Success In Ways That Are Far Above And Beyond The Truth.

I Would Say The Biggest Risk I Always Take Is Going In Front Of A Live Audience. There's Nothing More Risky To Do. You Have To Really Leave Yourself Open To Your Own Authenticity, And You Find That Out Pretty Quick.

I'm Very Aware, But I'm Very Naïve. When You Are Really Naïve And Expecting Safety And Expecting The Best, You Don't Feel You're Taking Risks. You Can Get Smacked A Little, But Usually It Works Out Pretty Well. I Would Say That, As Much As You Can Instill Your Open-minded Naivety, If You're Basically Open Minded, Then You Can Do Damn Near Anything.

I Do Miss The Stage. There's Nothing Like It, Nothing. When I Did My One-woman Show And Played The Palace And Played The Gershwin And All That, I Did - What? - Eight Shows Or Maybe More A Week. Of Course You Can't Do Anything Else, And You Can't Run Quickly For A Cab In The Rain, And You Can't Have A Drunken Love Affair. You Can't Do Any Of That. Because You've Got To Be Perfectly Healthy. And I Guess I Value Enjoying My Life A Little Bit More Than The Discipline These Days.

I Make My Mistakes In Public.
