We need to teach our kids because there is such a celebrity culture at the moment that however rich you are however famous you are however glamorous you are everyone has to live by the same rules.

It wasn't glamorous in my day. In the regions reporters were seen as such low life that they didn't merit their name in the Radio Times. Now people are interested in being famous. I never gave it a thought.

I recognize that I have a unique position to be a role model to young girls because I am doing something that they consider glamorous which is acting and yet I took a time to really get my education and study mathematics and I think math is the cat's meow.

Like all young reporters - brilliant or hopelessly incompetent - I dreamed of the glamorous life of the foreign correspondent: prowling Vienna in a Burberry trench coat speaking a dozen languages to dangerous women narrowly escaping Sardinian bandits - the usual stuff that newspaper dreams are made of.

There is nothing glamorous about death.

Everybody thinks it's going to be so glamorous so cool you're on 'Glee ' you know a hit show or whatever.

In this business my business I get to meet all kinds of incredible people fascinating people glamorous people and sexy people and highly intellectual people. And you meet them and you go 'interesting interesting interesting'. They're interesting but not very many people stop you in your tracks.

I don't think I could live without hair makeup and styling let alone be the performer I am. I am a glamour girl through and through. I believe in the glamorous life and I live one.
