Considering she was doing the interview, I doubt she lied about anything since it could easily be verified with her local police dept........You did hear about what happened when she was pulled over by them a year later didn't you?
Many actors have told lies right out of their own mouths about their past over the years. Brian Dennehy lied for years about being a Vietnam vet. It was easy to check, and eventually the truth came out. Didn’t stop him from reaping good publicity for years with little downside when it came out.
As for this woman, her story may be true, it may not. It may be embellished. I don’t know. I simply choose to not take any Hollywood publicity at face value. I’ve never heard of her before so I have no idea what any if her past exploits are.
