Just get on any major highway, and eventually it will dead-end in a Disney parking area large enough to have its own climate, populated by large nomadic families who have been trying to find their cars since the Carter administration.
I was kind of the black sheep with the Disney kids. I was uninterested in making friends with most of them. I didn't really fall into 'the Disney mold.' I was more or less the kid hanging out with the crew members and got along with them far better.
Growing up, I was always really inspired by Disney, and I had a great love of everything they created. My mum was huge fan, and she used to collect stills, and so they were all around the house, and we very much grew up on the early Disney films.
I don't mind being a Disney girl.
If you're one of the Disney kids, it's like you have to talk about having a promise ring, you know?
Plenty of Disney kids are perfectly normal and love what they do. But you always hear about the people who aren't doing well. It's kind of like the squeaky wheel.
Disney is our contemporary landscape. The best art will reflect that and challenge you. Disney comforts you, whereas the best art shakes up your comfort level and perception.
I love my Disney fans. A lot of the kids want to grow up and push away from that image, but I don't feel that way at all.
A lot of the people that work at Disney World are older people, and a lot have also been through wars, so they just want to work where people are smiling all the time. That's what I've been told, anyway.
Disney definitely sets up a fan base for you.
