I was so aware of the stage clothes versus the everyday-life clothes, and the extremeness of the stage clothes that my parents had designed.

Part of me feels like when you had a lot of success in your teens and 20s, it gets harder for you in your 30s because people are so attached to you as this ingenue. So even though you’re older, they still think of you as that girl – that waifish young girl. And so it was sort of like a struggle.
I’m thinking, ‘Man, there’s this whole other group of people that are attached to me because of my last name and my family’s roots.’ That’s pretty cool. That’s special, that’s a lot of power and it’s important.
