And 13 00:01:08,520 --> 00:01:13,360 Speaker 1: you've you've shared work about reclaiming ownership of your story. 14 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,560 Speaker 1: You know, your your books, as I mentioned, have just 15 00:01:16,600 --> 00:01:23,680 Speaker 1: been so beautiful.

And 18 00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 1: I'm curious how you feel about fame now. Do you 19 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:38,080 Speaker 1: feel like for you it's healthier? Do you feel like 20 00:01:38,160 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 1: it's a ruse? Like how what is your relationship? You've 21 00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:43,840 Speaker 1: been famous for fifty years? 22 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:45,400 Speaker 2: Like why is that. 23 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,280 Speaker 3: You know, so that's a question actually that it's surprising me, 24 00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:53,280 Speaker 3: not now because it's been coming up. It's surprising that 25 00:01:53,360 --> 00:01:56,400 Speaker 3: it has been coming up of late. And I'm sort 26 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 3: of wondering what is in the zeitgeist and what just 27 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 3: I think because with with internet sensations and TikTok stars 28 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,320 Speaker 3: and reality shows and right, and you ask a kid 29 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:09,560 Speaker 3: what they want to be when they grow up and 30 00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:11,320 Speaker 3: they say famous, you know. 31 00:02:11,360 --> 00:02:12,840 Speaker 2: You used to be.

Right? 35 00:02:20,200 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 2: And is it good? Is it bad? Is it purposeful? 36 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,600 Speaker 3: Is it because it doesn't it doesn't rely on the 37 00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 3: same criteria that it used to rely on in many ways, 38 00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 3: and infamous and famous is also you know what I mean? 39 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:41,839 Speaker 3: Like that that sort of the relationship between those two 40 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:44,120 Speaker 3: things I think is very different in this day and 41 00:02:44,160 --> 00:02:47,519 Speaker 3: age and for this next generation is coming up. 42 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,160 Speaker 2: What I have I used to fight it. 43 00:02:53,440 --> 00:02:56,519 Speaker 3: I used to try to shy away from it, try 44 00:02:56,560 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 3: to hide it. Don't want to revel in it, don't 45 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,760 Speaker 3: want to don't want to oh it because it just 46 00:03:01,840 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 3: came with too much and it felt like it was 47 00:03:06,600 --> 00:03:12,079 Speaker 3: cannibalizing my life, right, So I fought for to be regular, 48 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:15,000 Speaker 3: and I fought to real friends, and I thought I'd 49 00:03:15,040 --> 00:03:19,200 Speaker 3: get an education and all those things, and you kind 50 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 3: of come to this.

And yes, I still want privacy, 56 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:41,720 Speaker 3: and I and I, you know, I'm always amazed at 57 00:03:41,880 --> 00:03:44,600 Speaker 3: how people don't listen when they're you know, they come 58 00:03:44,680 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 3: up and they have to tell their story to you, 59 00:03:46,520 --> 00:03:49,120 Speaker 3: and you know, I knew you.

And it can be kind and 82 00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:02,120 Speaker 3: you can still protect yourself. But as an actor, you know, 83 00:05:02,680 --> 00:05:07,000 Speaker 3: I've had to look at it more as a commodity 84 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:13,320 Speaker 3: element and use it and access it and pick up 85 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 3: that phone call and call an executive. And you know 86 00:05:17,320 --> 00:05:19,400 Speaker 3: where I never would have done it.
