“To touch on people's lives [ in a way they ] haven't been touched on before, it´s fascianting. You know, it's one thing if [ a celebrity ] has an incredible character and you're really going to be able to delve into their personality – that's great. But you can never get real purity if people have been spoiled by the camera and don't trust you. I like feeling that I'm able to be a voice for those people who aren't famous, the people that don't have the great opportunities.” PeopleIfsKnowsWayHas BeensRealCharacterFeelingsAbleOpportunityVoiceOne ThingHavensPersonalityCamerasIncrediblesPurityTouchedGet RealSpoiledDon't TrustGreat Opportunity Author:Mary Ellen Mark

“It's hard to transport myself forward in time, and the scarcity of opportunity back then kind of fueled my ambition.

“Olympus has been a much welcomed return to my Shakespearean roots. King Aegeus demanded a much greater range and depth that I've yet had the opportunity to tap on camera.

I thought, 'Oh God, I'm right behind Donald Trump and in the camera shot. After that I stopped moving. I just sat there. It was funny. I was delighted that people noticed my white gloves. It was a white tie dinner, for the dais you had to be in white tie. If I can't channel my best Sophia Loren glamour for a white tie affair, when can I?

“How are we doing, Simon?" she whispered into the small microphone in her collar. "Just about..." Simon started slowly. And then he stopped. "Wow." "What?" she asked, panic in her voice. "Nothing," he said too quickly. "What?" she asked again. "Well...it's just that...your boobs look even bigger on TV." Kat took that opportunity to turn and glare at the nearest security camera. In his bathroom stall thirty feet away, Simon nearly fell off the toilet.” WellsLooksSaidTurnsOpportunityVoiceFeetSecurityTvsBiggerCamerasThirtyWowPanicBathroomToiletsCollarsMicrophonesGlare Author:Ally Carter
