London, September 23 (ANI): American actress Goldie Hawn has admitted that she never wanted to be a star and that she became ill with depression when her dreams of domesticity were shattered.
The 66-year-old Hollywood A-lister revealed how, as a young dancer, she was happy to live a simple life and get married. When she was plucked from the chorus line to star in a television show she also suffered from anxiety, panic attacks and nausea.
"I was pulled out of the chorus line too soon," the Daily Express quoted her as saying on BBC Radio 4.
"I didn't want to do anything else. I was so excited to be there. I was away from home and I think I saw the trajectory of my life was going to be dancing.
"Maybe I would get a commercial or two to make more money but I never believed I was going to be a star. I was fearful. It was not something to aspire to, to become well-known and be a star.
"I always thought I was going to go home and be near my mum and dad and get married and live with a white picket fence. So the projection of my life changed," she said.
Therapy helped her through.
"I felt so frightened, I saw a psychologist, he was Freudian," she said.
"I learned that it was me in the driving seat. It was an incredibly important time in my life," she added. (ANI)
