I was the kid that grew up watching Bette Davis films.

I grew up on Bette Davis movies, and Marlene Dietrich, Marilyn Monroe.

Bette Davis is my hero. I'm obsessed with her. I base everything I do on her.

Back in the days of Barbara Stanwyck and Bette Davis, beauty wasn't the be-all and end-all it is today.

Beauty is subjective: Bette Davis wasn't beautiful, but she was more than beautiful.

I always loved the bad girls in the movies. I loved Bette Davis; I loved Katherine Hepburn. I loved Ava Gardner.
