To tell you the truth, I was never attracted to handsome men because they were so attracted to themselves!
I tell the story of my life, how I got into show business, my two husbands and, of course, we show a lot of photographs.
Yet I'm now seeing Patrick as an adult and an actor onstage. He's a damn good actor. It's wonderful to see how he works.
But I could sing. It was given to me; it was a gift. And I thought everybody could sing.
And I thought, I want to tell people who I am, the life that I had as a child, being married all my life. I mean, you know, I never had affairs with a lot of men; that was not my case. But I was very devoted to the two husbands I've had.
I read. But to be very honest, I don't have time for hobbies. I've been working like crazy. I just came back from a signing. You take everything you have, records...pictures... movies... CD's and you have a booth where you sign them for the public.
