In the entertainment business, prejudiced matters. Right or wrong,
looks and charisma matters and translates to ratings and ratings
translates to money.

Take 100 random people off the street and at least 80 of them can read

I wanted to be the star in Top Gun but the producers did not think I'd
draw as much as Tom Cruise. Prejudice for sure.
