Brooke Shields, now entering her fifth decade of acting, is very clear on one thing: She will never stop acting.
“You are going to have to drag me away. You are going to have the hearse waiting. I’ll say my last words and you can put me in the box,” Shields says in this month’s issue of Luxury Listings NYC.
Shields, who first modeled at age 11 months for Ivory and went on to controversial roles as a child in “Pretty Baby,” “Endless Love” and “Blue Lagoon,” has had a robust and surprisingly diverse career. In recent years, she branched out into comedy, defying those who saw her as just a pretty face.
In her latest role, Shields plays a Manhattan-lawyer-turned florist with a penchant for solving crimes in the “Flower Shop Mysteries,” premiering this month on the Hallmark Channel. “It is sort of like ‘Murder She Wrote,’” she says.
