I love Katy Perry! She's very charming.

Trust me, there's not one night a week I'm not in a theater somewhere. I adore theater, and I go out with friends, so I do have some nights off.

My mother loved entertaining, and I've followed suit, so we have big celebrations for New Year, Passover, Thanksgiving and birthdays.

I could pull my living in and live OK, but I don't want to live OK. I'm very happy to live in my penthouse, very happy I can pick up a check, very happy to have a great life and be able to spread my wealth a little bit.

My audiences get younger all the time.

I am never honored. My career is hilarious to me. I am either under the radar or over the radar.

I could be the Greta Garbo of comedy, very secluded, but Garbo had a man who was beyond rich to support her.

I have flabby thighs, but fortunately my stomach covers them.

Anyone that says looks don't count is lying. Of course they do. Even babies go to the attractive face. It's the way humans work.

Everyone forgets comedians are actors. There's no question about it. A Robin Williams cannot say the same line every night for 40 weeks and make it sound fresh unless he's doing an acting job.

I just love acting.

My best birth control now is just to leave the lights on.

I was a Brownie Scout mother.

Prince Charles is so funny. So, so funny.

I've learned from my dealings with Johnny Carson that no matter what kind of friendship you think you have with people you're working with, when the chips are down, it's all about business.

I live very well, but I support a lot of relatives.

I love Vines. You make this 6.4-second drama, and you can reach 6 million viewer, and make people laugh. I find it so fabulous.

I think any celebrity that adopts a child from a third world country is a fool.

I always like a charity with people who don't speak English because I get them to do all kinds of things around my house.

I had a friend who was a plastic surgeon, so he would do little things. I never had, like, a full thing. So I would go in maybe once every two or three years, and he'd do a little here, a little there; tweak you, like you tweak your car. Then I became the plastic surgery poster girl.

Every comedian is furious. Age makes me angry. I'm unhappy at not being able to open packages anymore. I'm angry that libraries have gone. I hate children on planes. I'm very shallow, so they tend to be little things. To be honest, I think I was probably angry the day I was born, you know, about diapers or something.

All my friends are dying. That's why I always wear black.

I walk on a stage, and I know if it's been a good show or not. You know when it's been a good interview. No one has to tell you. You know it. You feel it. You can feel the air. You can feel everything about it when it's a good show. And you know when you've messed up.

Before we make love my husband takes a pain killer.

My career is as an actress. I am an actress playing a comedienne.

Don't tell your kids you had an easy birth or they won't respect you. For years I used to wake up my daughter and say, 'Melissa you ripped me to shreds. Now go back to sleep.'.

The worst thing that ever happened to me on stage is someone ran forward to tell me they loved me and projectile vomited all over the stage. It was horrible.

Boy George is all England needs - another queen who can't dress.

We have enormous appetites for both food and love, and yet there's junk food and also junk love.

I think most people know when they're in a toxic relationship - it requires an enormous amount of effort to keep it going, and you don't get what you want from it.

Contraception is a couple's issue.

Print is not dead.

Make a list of all the people in your life, and rate them in terms of energy in, energy out. Is there anyone in your life right now who is blocking your love quest?

I was 36 when I had my first son, Thomas, and 39 when I had Hugo, my second.

We can't pretend that a Facebook friend is the same as a real friend you've shared times with together, both good times and difficult times.

I started in journalism: my first magazine, I developed when I was 10. I sent it round to the neighbors. I also sent it to the Queen of England.

One of the things about being online is it's hard to forget people, so it's very easy to stalk an ex, it's very easy to follow what people are doing. It's almost impossible to forget them.

Get out there and meet people, and that will lead to meeting other people. Look around; see if there's anyone hiding in plain sight. There may be friends that become more than friends.

It's really important to be surrounded by people who are going to lift you up.

Love and food are very similar in many ways. We can't survive without them, and they bring us great joy, and just as there is junk food, and you can become obese, there's also junk love.

Dating apps are brilliant for expanding your actual social network, which leads you to meet other people.

I was precocious, so I began reading 'Cosmo' when I was 12.

I have never had an unsupportive female boss. I've had several female bosses. They've all been super supportive.

I grew up in the north of England - 200 miles north of London, in a relatively unsophisticated place. And I craved magazines as a way of finding out about the future, about the life that I wanted.

I don't like the tropes, particularly in my industry, that the senior women are mean to the junior staff.

I can't spend any time cultivating celebrity.

I have green eyes, which are actually quite difficult to find makeup for.

I was a member of the young liberals, the young conservatives, and young Labour, according to who gave the best parties.

As I've gotten older, I've become much more effective at seeking and accepting help and bringing other people into the discussion. You start to understand that you can't control or fix everything on your own.

'Marie Claire' is one of those magazines that doesn't feel as well known as it should be.
