Gillian Anderson... In her own words:
"Fame is complicated and definitely overrated. There are perks to it that
are unfathomable. But the other aspect is there's little to no privacy
at all - being anywhere at any time and knowing that somebody you cannot
see is probably taking a picture of you, which has happened hundreds of
times. I look around and cannot see anyone and a couple of weeks later
I see a photo of me looking around." (Movieline interview, Dec. 1998)
