    The popular actress admitted she used to worry about her looks in the 80s, when “everybody was more fit, or more thin.”

    “I maxed out on worrying about it,” she toldHuffPost Live in 2015. “I just gave up on worrying about it.”

    She said her brain and body “got better” once she stopped dwelling on her appearance.

    “I was taking these exercise classes called ‘abs, thighs, and buns’ and I was like, ‘I’m going to be dead one day—do I really want to give up an hour in this class?’” she continued.

    Although her name is attached to some acclaimed films and shows, she told The Guardian in 2022 that she never wanted to chase after fame, but it found her anyway.

    Following her Oscar win, the paparazzi eventually stopped crowding around her doorstep because she “just became very boring,” she told the outlet.
