"Because I get nervous all the time. It's weird but I think it's fun and it's refreshing. It's always good to be that way. That keeps me appreciative of everything"
About this Quote
The intent is quietly defensive and aspirational at once. In an industry where confidence is part of the costume, she’s giving herself permission to be visibly human without apologizing for it. The subtext: nerves are evidence that the stakes are real. If you stop getting nervous, you’ve either numbed out or you’re no longer reaching.
Her most revealing line is the last one, where anxiety becomes a gratitude practice. That’s not self-help fluff; it’s a survival tactic for a career built on auditions, scrutiny, and reinvention. Nervousness turns into a guardrail against entitlement and autopilot. It keeps her "appreciative of everything" because it continually reminds her it could go away.
Culturally, it lands in a moment where celebrities are expected to be both aspirational and relatable, polished and transparent. Milian threads that needle by treating vulnerability not as a brand confession, but as a working method: stay a little shaky, stay awake, stay grateful.
