The industry exists, but this idea that it's some glamorous fantastic existence all the time is not what I've found to be true. I don't mean it's not real, because it does exist. Q: But fame is also a very real issue to contend with, don't you think?Ī: Yeah, for some people it is absolutely real. To get caught up in that sort of hoopla and the fame and the glamour, is pretty silly. It is just a big old fun game that's not real. We've seen and know of many couples where one person becomes very famous and the wife or the husband no longer fits in the picture, but there are also people that can handle it, and can see fame for what it is and take it for what it is. Is that something that you can personally identify with as a celebrity who has been involved in romance mingled with fame?Ī: I think it depends on the individual and the situation. Q: Steven Herek said that your character in 'Rock Star' shows how when you're the significant other of somebody who becomes famous you wind up fading into the background. It was just a silly little thing (laugh). I think Tyler's just phenomenal and (laugh) and very, very, very beautiful. It was a joke in passing between me and my loved one about how much I love him. Q: Speaking of Aerosmith, you made an interesting comment about lead singer Steven Tyler in 'Vanity Fair', would you care to comment?Ī: Yes.

I mean I love so many different bands and different kinds of music. Q: Do you have a favorite rock group that you liked or that you would like to meet?Ī: I don't have one favorite. Q: You said, it scares you, but was there any temptation when there was an audience full of people to just run out there and have people scream for you?Ī: No, (laugh) no way. I've seen a couple of shows in my life, but I didn't do the rock scene very much. Q: Did you go to a lot of rock concerts when you were younger or in preparation for this film?Ī: No, I can't say I did.
