Had I not made it big, my family would have told me to recheck my decision. Now that I am successful, there is no way. They have to accept it gracefully.

I work on my body to stay fit, but that does not make me superior to anyone. I am a forthright and hardworking girl.

God made me the way I am, and I accept myself. I am who I am, and I'm proud of myself.

Believe me, it's not easy being an actress and a producer, especially with no big daddy to support you.

I would never deny the importance of the media, but I wouldn't go out of the way to splash my pictures all over town. I'd rather let my work do the talking.

Now I am older, I understand we have to accept who we are.
