I pretty much make time for that weekly manicure.
How can you think and hit at the same time?
I was named Margaret Yvonne. 'Margaret' because my mother was very fond of one of the derivatives of the name. She was fascinated at the time by the movie star Baby Peggy, and I suppose she wanted a Baby Peggy of her own.
You have to treat Hollywood like it's your boyfriend - he's there all the time.
