I'm not sure if guys are supposed to read Vanity Fair. I feel very metrosexual with it but am not sure it's in my comfort zone.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I've loved 'Vanity Fair' since I was 16 years old. You know, we're all colonial hangovers in India, steeped in English literature. It is one of these novels that I read under the covers at my convent boarding school in Simla.
For my type of story and my kind of writing, I think 'Vanity Fair' is the right forum.
I think male actors get confused by their own vanity.
Vanity dies hard; in some obstinate cases it outlives the man.
Now, being on the cover of Vanity Fair is as important as being in great movies. The lines are very, very blurred.
I have this theory that people in Hollywood don't read. They read 'Vanity Fair' and then consider themselves terribly well read. I think I can basically write about anybody without getting caught.
If there is a single quality that is shared by all great men, it is vanity.
Vanity is something that will only get in the way of doing your best work, and ultimately if you're truly vain you care more about your work than how you look in your work. I actually consider myself a pretty vain guy when it comes to that.
There's nothing so unattractive as vanity... particularly male vanity.
I would be lying if I said it wasn't cool to see myself on the cover of 'Vanity Fair,' right? It's, like, what am I doing there? This is bizarre.
