I was raised in Hollywood and knew, from as early as grammar school, classmates who were in the business.
One of the things I noticed more in this draft than in any recent drafts was the importance of the character issue. Players who had baggage, like Justice, fell much farther than his talent dictated. But a lot of coaches didn't want to take the chance.
I think people were expecting me to be that kind of glamorous sexpot. So they were always, Wow you're not what I expected.
