Politics Quotes

I had always been the theater nerd at Northwestern University. I knew I wanted to do acting, but I hated the idea of being this cliche - a girl from L.A. who decides to be an actress.

I have no interest in owning a football club; I don’t play golf; I don’t like horseracing and I’d rather become a professional bungee jumper than enter politics Picture Quote #1

When you enter the realm of politics, you don’t enter it because you want to be popular. When I want to be popular, I pull on a guitar and sing a song Picture Quote #1
