---|---|
1 | Having a director like Michael see me and take a chance and have a process like we have had, was something I envisioned since I was a little girl. Not necessarily doing a movie about strippers. – on her film Dancing at the Blue Iguana (2000) |
2 | The pageant was such a fluke. I mean, I was living in an orphanage, and my foster mother bet me $150 to go out for this thing. Nobody, including myself, thought that a foster kid could be a beauty queen. – on being Miss Teen USA 1993 |
3 | Starring in Ricky Martin’s video for “She’s All I Ever Had” was something she is very proud of, and it definitely helped her get back on her feet financially. |
