first things
Q: If you could spend only $10,000
more on plastic surgery for the rest of
your life, what work would you have
done?
A: Oh, I think for a woman my age, it’s all
about the jawline. I think it’s very
important. And for $10,000, you wouldn’t
get anything. You might get half a
jawline. Especially men—nobody wants
to see turkey necks. They’re so unpleasant
looking.
Q: The new crop of Disney celebs is
already heading to rehab or worse. What
do you think about that?
A: I think it’s terribly, terribly sad. The more
you hear about Lindsay Lohan, the sorrier
you are for her, because you hear about the
background and the home environment,
and you go, “No wonder.” I think rehab’s the
safest place for that poor girl.
Q: It seems that Hollywood is full of
back-stabbers. Have you ever sought
revenge against anyone who wronged you
during your rise to fame?
A: I can’t hold a grudge. I think that’s because
my life is such a lucky life. You’ll meet somebody
who was a real son of a bitch to you five years
ago, and you go, “Ah, look what’s happened to
me since. F#ck you.” It’s easy to move forward
when things are good.
Q: And when times are bad?
A: When times are bad, you should be so busy
digging yourself out. Don’t waste the energy.
Q: Speaking of busy, you do everything from
acting to jewelry design to being the Celebrity
Apprentice to stand-up. What aspect of your
career do you enjoy the most?
A: I’m like a whore and I like whatever I’m
doing. I just love the business.
Q: What can San Diegans expect from your
upcoming show here?
A: First of all, every gay man in San Diego better
show up! That’s number one, because they’re
the best audience in the world. So, they should
expect an awful lot of gay men. And, they should
expect just having fun and telling the truth. It
isn’t going be going down memory lane, ‘cause I
couldn’t give a sh!t about memory lane.
“If you don’t enjoy the good times, you’re an idiot. Nothing stays
forever and nothing lasts forever. And if it’s a good time today,
enjoy it today, because you don’t know what the hell is going to
hit you tomorrow. Really, really live with that. I know when it’s a
good moment in my life, and boy, oh boy, do I appreciate it.”
