Women Are Objectified In Our Culture. And More And More, It Takes A Great Deal Of Confidence, Especially As A Woman, To Break The Mold. You Know, You're Afraid That You're Going To Covered In A Magazine As A "fashion Don't." That's Why You See All These Girls On The Red Carpet Looking The Same.

I Think There's Nothing More Painful For Anyone Than Unrequited Love. If You've Ever Had That Kind Of Physical Access To Someone And Then, All Of A Sudden, That Is Denied, And Yet You're Still In Love With That Person, It's Very, Very, Very Painful To Be Around That Person In A Certain Way.
