I had a really fun career in TV right after I left politics.
Acting is playing, and it is like being a big kid. Yeah, it's great. You get paid.
Frankly, writing poetry for children is plain old fun, and I consider myself blessed to have such a delightful career.
Entertainment is such a great job to have.
For 20 years I've gotten to laugh my way through my work. For me, that's a dream job.
We didn't know it was going to be a career - it was just a lot of fun. We were known as the bimbo band and never expected to last.
I didn't really realize that writing... would be fun and people would pay you to do it. Being an astronaut is a glory profession, and so is writing, in a way.
Acting helped me as I was growing up. It helped me learn about myself, helped me travel, helped me understand life, express myself, all those wonderful things. So I'm very, very grateful; it's a fun job. It's a luxury.
So many girls trying to be models, like, 'Oh my god, I want to be a model!' Nobody really knows the reality of it. It's a lot of hard work, but at the same time, it's a lot of fun.
To get a job where the only thing you have to do in your career is to make people laugh-well, it's the best job in the world.
The only reason I left the salon was really to chase these dreams of either being an MTV host or a travel host. I loved the idea of doing something fun and interesting for a living, and that is what got me over to Malaysia.
