When I first started doing press, one of the things people started pushing was this idea that I'd somehow escaped something. And I was really offended, because I hadn't escaped anything.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Doing press is like eating at McDonald's: while it's going on it's vaguely enjoyable - you're seduced by your own vanity and taking yourself rather seriously - but immediately afterwards you feel sick.
The press made me something I really wasn't and I tried to live up to what they made me.
I manage to scrape together a private life, despite the press.
I don't do press for the sake of press. I tend to only be in the press when I'm introducing something or collaborating on something or whatever it may be, as opposed to inviting someone into my home to photograph my closet for no particular reason.
I'm a big believer in pushing things too far and forcing people to pull you back.
The press are animals, and they need to be treated that way.
I don't ever want to believe my own press clippings, good or bad.
I just never, in my career, got into doing a lot of press.
I purposefully isolate myself from anything that has to do with any press. I don't read any press about myself.
I never mind doing press; it's never bothered me.
