The biggest effect celebrity had on me was that I stopped being open and receptive and started to walk around with my head down.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I really believe that, as an actor, you should be constantly studying other people, and celebrity had the absolute opposite effect on me. It made me want to hide - to run away and hide.
I regret that I wasn't the kind of person who could enjoy celebrity. It embarrassed me too much.
I went from being totally unknown to getting stopped every time I went out. I always wanted to be successful, but I have never wanted to become a celebrity. I never, ever, craved that.
I was born into big celebrity. It could only diminish.
I never thought being famous would be wonderful, but my limited exposure to celebrity has shown me the dark side big-time.
I watched my parents' fame diminish - as I was getting more conscious, their celebrity was going back down the mountain.
Celebrity was fun, and I had a good time.
My celebrity has held steady since the day I began acting. I don't view it as celebrity. I'm just a worker.
I was an unusually private person - in a way, kind of insufferably so. I think I thought the celebrity thing when it happened was a temporary phenomenon, and I was above it.
For me, becoming a celebrity was like being in the eye of a hurricane. Suddenly, I was an international cover girl. Everybody was lapping up my Hemingwayness. They wanted to rub elbows with me or brush up against me.
