Amy Smart on Rose McGowan


Amy Smart discusses Rose McGowan in an interview with Dread Central and had the following sweet words to say about our girl:


“She was really fun,” said the actress. “She’s funny and witty and sarcastic, and while we didn’t have that many scenes together in Dead Awake, we definitely spent a lot of time together in Des Moines, and I think she’s really talented. It was the type of character she’s never played before. She’s known as the gorgeous bombshell who can act, and in this film it was so outside of anything she’s played, and I think she did a great job. I know that she was definitely pushed out of her comfort zone, and what’s fun as an actor is to take risks at things that you think you may fail at and to go for it and to grow and to expand.”

Rose McGowan Talks About Growing Up with Drag Queens



In a new interview with The Advocate, Rose McGowan revealed that she grew up around drag queens and even went out to gay clubs as a middle schooler. The goth-chic actress, who dated Marilyn Manson for three years, says her unconventional childhood helped her become accepting.

When McGowan moved from her birthplace in Italy to the U.S., she was teased at her school in Portland, Oregon. As a young teen, she found comfort after being taken in "by the most amazing drag queens" who would dress her up as characters like Charlie Chaplin and take her out on the town. "There was so much camaraderie and love," she told the LGBT-interest magazine.

Although McGowan says she's straight and has never kissed a girl, she always felt embraced at gay clubs. "Whether it was how I danced or the way I looked, I was always quite celebrated in the gay clubs. To this day, I only go to gay clubs. I’m perfectly at home there," she said.
