I've never chased fame. I came into this business to be a theatre actress. I was nine when I first appeared on stage. But I can't say I would turn my back on fortune. I'm someone who enjoys the benefits of money.

Well I've written four beauty books as well.

But I have had to give up certain things in my life. One is shopping. Two is lunch with the girls. Three is cocktail parties, and four is studying my lines.
Joan Collins
Image
I loathe conflict, and I loathe not getting along well with people, so I always try very hard to be on the best terms with the people I work with.
