Look, I'm 40, I'm single, and I work in musical theater - you do the math!
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I come from the theater and I plan to always do theater. So I don't really see myself not being able to act even if people don't think I am sexy enough for film at 40, I'll still be acting.
I'm grateful that I have a theater career because television isn't kind to you when you're over forty.
I've become 40, my audience is partly the same age.
The truth is that from the age of 14, I felt about 40, and for that reason, I felt that I would never succeed as an actor until my looks caught up with my actual age.
There's so much more I want to do. I refuse to get to 50 and wait at home for the phone to ring. In Spain, actresses work until they are old. That's my plan.
Right now I'm pretty single... My career is my boyfriend.
It's been hard in entertainment as a 45-year-old woman to find jobs. They get fewer and far between if you're older, unless you're one of the few lucky ones who work constantly, like Meryl Streep.
Forty is when you actually begin even deserving to be on stage telling people what you think.
When I was a young woman, before I moved to New York, working in small, non-Equity theatres in the Midwest, I did a lot of musicals in my early to mid-20s.
I'm an actor. I play roles in films and theaters. I don't act out, and I don't play people.
