One time we did have 300 acres in watermelons. That was fun.

I wanted to be an actress, and I wanted to be a model.

But I thought, I've just got to check out Hollywood, so I sent out pictures and resumes.

I wanted it so badly that there was no choice. It's like something in your blood that you have to do.

I want to find a way to reach young women emotionally and also to start providing clothing for them so that they can wear the same things their thin friends can wear. I really want to do evening wear and prom dresses for these girls.

In my teens or twenties I wanted to do Blanche. Now I'm over that. Those roles are not attracting me now. Which is odd, because that's what most every actress would want to go do.

I went through all my twenties thinking that I wasn't good enough.

I put the weight on after we were together. I put on about 20 pounds when we got married, and people were flipping their lids. And then I put on more after that, and I've gone up and down since then.

I got into my very theatrical phase. I wore only black: a big black hat and wild hair and wild black clothes, and I carried a sword stick. I went there still looking like Miss Florida, and I came back looking very different.
Delta Burke -
At the end. First start off and do your youth thing In Hollywood and then go to New York later. But it wound up being later, later than I thought it was going to be.
Delta Burke -
Eve wasn't a size 6 and neither am I.
