She sent me some lingerie, which is one of the partnerships with @victoriassecret and I wore it today to support my money makers as well as her movie and couldn’t figure out how to show her my support so this was the best I could do in a limo driving around New York City,
illustrating her playful yet genuine backing.

realized I was going to die sooner than later.
She elaborated,
Sooner than later means sooner than later. And that understanding meant I have no effing time to waste. No time to waste on toxic people, on relationships that don’t serve me,

This pragmatic approach reflects her broader perspective on aging, especially within Hollywood’s often unforgiving environment. Curtis shared that growing up with famous parents gave her firsthand experience with industry ageism. She recalled,

New Projects and Collaborative Spirit with Nicole Kidman

Describing her collaboration with Kidman, Curtis emphasized their shared appreciation for their careers, stating,
She brings her spirit, which is open, beautiful, gracious, grateful that she gets this opportunity,
and added,
I walk into every day of every job the same way. I don’t care if it’s a yogurt commercial or a TV show I’m producing. We both appreciate that we get to do this. And at this age, if we’re not in this together, I’m not sure what we’re doing.
Her role as a producer affords Curtis a certain freedom and control, joking about her status by saying she can’t be fired, referencing earlier remarks to The Guardian where she mentioned
