I wouldn't be who I am without my husband, who handled the business end of Donna Karan so I could be creative.
I do not approve of museums trying just to get people to come in. Whistler was very, very clear on this.
Elvis was incredibly cooperative. He would try anything. He wasn't a diva, no prima donna. When it came to work, he was a workhorse.
Britishness is just a way of putting things together and a certain don't care attitude about clothes. You don't care, you just do it and it looks great.
I'm not as famous as Stephen Hawking, but certainly in the U.S., I have a very high profile for a scientist. It is an awesome responsibility, one that I don't shoulder lightly.

Donna Mills came on the show as a female antagonist, about a year before, so now they wanted to have a male antagonist. I was cast as a Senator to shake things up.

If I can face a street full of rabid zombies, I can tell a boy I like him. Right?
