The business breeds such a deep insecurity. It's the nature of the beast, and there is nothing you can do to get away from that.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Despite my confidence and self-belief, I've always wrestled with feelings of insecurity. To be honest, I think most people in show business are insecure.
One of the things I've really gotten past in the last couple of years is the idea of being made uncomfortable by the way things appear, rather than how things are. Clearly in this business you have to contend with a lot of that.
You check to see the facts are correct where business is concerned but if I read everything that was written about me, I'd end up feeling totally insecure about myself.
You have to stick out the toughness of the business and form relationships with the people in it.
I think you've got to have your feet planted firmly on the ground, especially in this business, and you must not believe things that are said or written about you, because everything gets out of proportion one way or the other.
Like everybody in show business, you think you're going to wake up one day, and it's all going to be taken away from you. I think we all share an insecurity in that way, everybody in show business - the ones I talk to, anyway.
When you feel like this isn't your business, get out of the business.
It's really hard to run a business against somebody who is not acting as if it were in business.
I think insecurity does drive people. I know it's what drove me to push for the work I've got.
It's unfortunate that sometimes the personal things affect the business.
