I have not spent years in therapy; I tried therapy in my mid-twenties, and it did not go very well. I just thought, 'This is so not for me. I would rather talk to one of my girlfriends.'

Now, if there was one woman in the world who didn't need publicity, who always had too much publicity, it was me. ↗
