When Juno was blowing up this sounds strange to people, and I get that people don't understand. Oh, f*** you, you're famous, and you have money, and you had to wear a dress, boo-hoo. I don't not understand that reaction."

"But that's mixed with: I wish people would understand that that s*** literally did almost kill me."
