1 | My big dream was to be a world-champion [rodeo] barrel racer. My other was to sing on Broadway. I did one of them. |
2 | I never moved to Hollywood trying to become a movie star. It's an interesting place, probably a daunting place. It's not a place I would try to go and knock people's doors down. But when things come my way, I'm glad to consider the roles. |
