Rumors About Me? Calista Flockhart,

I Recognize That Hollywood Is Not About Seniority. Often It's Not Even A Meritocracy. It's About What You Did Yesterday. You Have A Couple Of Misses, And Suddenly It's Impossible To Find A Hit. So The Swings Are Gigantic. But I've Always Understood It As Such, And Navigated It As Such.

I Remember Back When I Was A Kid There Was A Comic Strip Called Plastic Man. His Body Was Elastic And He Could Make His Extremities As Long As He Wanted. As A Youngster I Didn't Fully Appreciate. But I'm Now Thinking Plastic Man Was Probably Pretty Popular With The Ladies.

I Grew Up In A Home Environment Where I Wasn't Getting Esteem For Anything I Did.
