...write about the importance of looks for women on TV. Is that a hard thing to deal with? Yeah, it is. You know what? It's an age-old problem in this business. You can get bitter, and you can get angry, and you can be mad about the reality, but it exists and I do my best to sort of take as good care of myself as I can. I'm 42 years old, and there are certain things I can't control. The challenge is to try and look great, yes, but also to try and transcend...
