I feel the same! It's weird how she's only been as a body and a face to so many ppl. But I get the feeling women understand her better, I dunno. I think she's SO smart about everything in her Hollywood life : her image, her career. I love her interviews, she's real and I wish I could tell her that one day. I'm a 40yo woman that admires her work because she's smart and btfl in and out.

Yep, it's always been clear to me that she's really intelligent. I actually think that makes it HARDER to have the career she's had. "Ignorance is bliss". People wanted her to just be beautiful and have no opinions.

This is a beautiful and insightful interview. As a parentified child I totally relate with "carrying the burden of war between parents", it made me almost cry to hear that. It's also very difficult to be the one who finally sees that pattern and makes an effort to not pass it to another generation.

TELL THIS TO MY MOTHER - My entire youth and to this day, I witness their constant fighting, and I watch how my narcissistic mother despises my father at times (most). It's truly disgusting. I remember as a young child I would try to count the days that went by without them fighting once...I honestly don't think I ever counted a full day without an argument. I went through phases of crying to my father as a child, him witnessing the fear in my voice as I asked if him & my mother were going to get a divorce - and as a comforting father, he assured me, no. As I grew older, I would silently wish they would...continually shrivelling away each time the verbal daggers would be thrown from her. 30 years of this, watching the pain affecting my entire family, but especially my father. & To this day, I still feel incredibly hopeless. Please parents of the world, like Megan said, don't let your children carry the burden of war between parents, as I am one of the many scarred individuals who have to.
