Thank you to all for your prayers and good wishes. It gave me the strength to persevere and warmed my heart.

I think there is a way to be formal and elegant and classy, but more modern. Brad Pitt has been changing it, and Will Smith has been doing it in his own way.

I'll name names, you know I won't hold back.

You're surfing with all this glamour, and a lot of people are talking about Gwyneth, JLo, and Cameron.

In the last couple of years, fashion's gotten a lot safer. People are really pulling back.

We are going to have a huge Oscar issue, you are going to see everything in such beautiful detail.

I don't hold that everybody has to love fashion. Some people like gardening.

I feel great, the prognosis is excellent.

I was on this bridge overlooking the carpet... I think it went all the way back to Oregon.

My phone has been ringing off the hook. I have like 17 cell phones and pagers.

I want everybody who is watching to come to the Academy Awards with us. I'm going to pay for the bus.

We all get swept up in the hype machine. Nobody is immune to that.

I'm very grateful to Jennifer Lopez, because I have something to talk about for the last couple of years.

The criteria, for me, is movie star. It's Hollywood. Not Somalia.

J. Lo, whether she is good or bad, is like a fiery movie star, a throwback to Elizabeth Taylor in her heyday.

I am a child of Hollywood and dreams. To me, to be on the red carpet is the best place in the world.

I used a lot of pancake makeup and a prayer, and a Buddhist chant.

I wrote the book in my head when I was 6 years old.

On the red carpet, I saw all these great stories, and I also got to see the plastic surgery up close.

Courtney Love is a loose cannon. She says what she thinks. She's wild on the red carpet. You get the best sound bites from Courtney Love.

I liked Nicole Kidman because she is so fashionable she can do less is more. It was very, very simple, but it was so chic. Some people thought she looked washed out, I didn't at all.

I am going to get political on you. Because I am the most shallow person in the world, my mission is to see men's formal wear change a little bit. It is too rigid! Everybody looks like a penguin!

I'm just a vessel of information.

I'm wearing a garbage bag. I was put on my own worst-dressed list.

I'm being invaded by fashion pundits.

I'm a writer. Now I've started to be on television. I have a big mouth. And I have good TV teeth, they say.

I'm immensely grateful for the precious gift my mother has given me. She is my hero today and every day.

I'm not getting paid right now. No pay, no critique.

I had no blood relatives till I made some.

I know that I'm very lucky to be alive. For 35 or 40 years I've spilt my blood and broke my bones and spent years in hospitals.

No one will ever know what 'In Cold Blood' took out of me. It scraped me right down to the marrow of my bones. It nearly killed me. I think, in a way, it did kill me.
