Brigitte Bardot
I mourn the fact that my beautiful country has deteriorated in every way.
I am 30, but there are things about me that are still 15.
My country, France, my homeland, my land is again invaded by an overpopulation of foreigners, especially Muslims.
As for being a little bunny that never says a word, that is truly the opposite of me.
I left a world in which I was a queen to enter one in which I'm a human being.
I am shocking, impertinent and insolent that's how it is.
I started out as a lousy actress and have remained one.
I can't do the same thing every night, the same gestures... it's like putting on dirty panties every day.
Fame had brought me so much unhappiness.
Film-making was not at all what I had expected.
I am really not interested in the cinema. I loathed it when I started six years ago, and I don't enjoy it even now.
