talk about their
COLLECTIONS
GOLDIE HAWN “Over the years I’ve traveled in
India so much and collected so many things. I
love the style and romance of the Raj period,
when the English first came in. I have this
enormous jade Buddha, plus a parade of elephants
and rhinos that I keep over the mantel.”
By Susan Granger
DEMI MOORE “I am a doll collector. I love
dolls. When I did the voice of Esmerelda in
The Hunchback of Notre Dame what I wanted
were those little molded statues [used by the
animators] that nobody knows about, but I do,
as a contemporary doll collector.”

LIAM NEESON “My real passion is shoes. If
my wife and I get divorced, it will be over
shoes. I’m like Imelda Marcos with shoes.”

SEAN YOUNG “I collect autographs. I’ve been
collecting them for years. My most coveted
is Meryl Streep’s. I already have three completed
autograph books and I’m working on
my fourth.”
BETTE MIDLER “I collect cook books. I am a
food nut. My husband and I are both big eaters.
I read cook books at night. I love Julia Child.”
MIMI ROGERS “I collect majolica dishes — I
have the asparagus and grape patterns. I collect
art glass — I have Lalique, Galle, Daum. I collect
pottery — I have Van Briggle and Rookwood. I
collect things until they become too popular.
Once everyone else wants it, it becomes too
expensive, and also it’s not as much fun.”
GABRIEL BYRNE “I have this collection of
accordions that belonged to my grandmother,
my uncle and my father in Ireland. My dad
played a button-key accordion, and I learned to
play on that. I played with my uncle in a local
pub when I was eight years old. I love to play
the accordion. I’m not as good as I should be,
but it’s really very relaxing.”
JOHNNY DEPP “I collect costumes from all my
films. I have the boots and helmet from my
uniform in Platoon. I have my leather jacket
and jeans from Cry Baby. I kept the hands and
costume from Edward Scissorhands. I have the
cane and jacket from Benny & Joon. I love the
angora sweater and pumps from Ed Wood. I
have some of Jack Kerouac’s old clothes, too,
plus some original manuscripts.”
BROOKE SHIELDS “If you can believe this, I
have copies of pictures from each one of my
professional photo shoots. It never mattered
to me what I did, as long as I had a good
picture of it.”
NICOLAS CAGE “I seem to have this thing
about beetles in the bedroom. I have a Titanus
Giganteus, which is the largest of all the beetles,
laminated in the headboard of my bed, and on
the end tables, I have laminated rhinoceros
beetles.”
