Quote Of The Day

Filed under: Quote of the Day

"I definitely like not working sometimes. It's so fun. I just love sleeping in. In America, everyone is driven to succeed and wake up and do something. But I don't care. I want to sleep in. I want to relax. I don't want to have to get up everyday. It's funny. The longer I have been in the business, the more I realised how important it is to have other things in my life. Have normal, healthy people around me, not focusing on the business all the time, not always going to see every movie… just being really happy. I've been evaluating how much I value happiness in my life. To be too driven takes away your happiness."

Why does she look like Naomi Judd? I think she's been sleeping in the sun too long. She looks good, but older than she should.

In this picture she looks like Roby, who starred in Friday The !3th, The Series, in the 1980's.

I kind of agree with her. Enjoy life. Breathe. Relax. Whats the point of busting your ass for nice shit if you're not going to enjoy it?

I agree with her, don't take your career too seriously. It's not what matters most in life! BTW she looks gorgeous in that picture.

Must be nice to have that option. It has nothing to do with being American…it's called surviving. Ahh to be a celebrity.

Re: VeganVal – "Louis Vendredi made a deal with the devil, to sell cursed antiques…." Luvd that show! Roby also covered 'One Night in Bangkok' as a dance hit. Oh, she also sang for White Lion, but we pretend we don't remember that.

yea, I wish we all could life stress free lifestyles, not having to work everyday . Though we,as a human race could definitely come up with such a laid back, paradise-like economy/system on our beautiful planet if there was not a gazillion billion of us. 1/10 of the current population and we would be all living the dream. All problems solved. Poverty(jobs for everyone),disease(pesticides-intensive farming-cancer main cause),wars(land,resources)… But no,politicians avoid this(free condoms,free abortions,promoting having only 1 kid..) so we could achieve such a world…

Re: flora_tink – Um…what? And God put you on this earth to sit around reading perezhilton? Lady, we're all guilty of something. Read the story of Adam and Eve. Hard work, labor, and trouble wasn't Gods fault.

If I were an actress, I'd relax with my millions too. Why keep making movie after movie? I mean, if you're really interested in a certain project that's one thing, but why do people like brad and angie who have kids and humantarian projects bother to make more movies when they're already sitting on a pile of cash?

True. But there is salvation thru work as well. Keeping a well balanced mind set is the key.

Much love for you

Re: kleeow – "acting's not a real job"?? I'm not an actress but I know very well that acting is VERY tiring: you have to be very emotional all the time, from happy to crying back to happy to crying some more, which is emotionally very tiring, plus actors have to get up super early every morning and they keep shooting till late at night, and they have to do all kinds of stunts (where they often get hurt, they don't have stunt doubles for everything!), AND they need to tour all the time to go and promote movies, so they need to look perfect ALL the time and the paparazzi never leaves them alone.. AND of course, it's not easy being a good actor, you have to make it seem real but not over the top cause then its ridiculous. it's really not an easy job!!
