I still giggle when someone asks for my address and I say, 'Hollywood, Los Angeles.'
I'm just so glad that girl power is working in Hollywood.
I didn't grow up in a home that glorified Hollywood. We didn't watch TV. We didn't have a lot of magazines around.

So, no, I'm not trying to crack into Hollywood, although I'll make films there if they're good scripts.

Hollywood movies are seen throughout the world.
But what I really like are old Hollywood movies. Very often I watch AMC.
In Hollywood, people get reputations, just rumors that are passed down.
Growing up in the South, we say 'Yes Ma'am' and 'No Ma'am.' Here in Hollywood, people get offended.
This is Hollywood. People don't admit mistakes.
I'm Anna May Wong. I come from old Hong Kong. But now I'm a Hollywood star.
I am a hybrid. I do independent films and also do Hollywood films - I love them both.
