"I may be boring, but it would be to wake up by my dog and then my daughter"
About this Quote
The phrasing is tellingly plain, almost clumsy, like something said off-camera rather than polished for a magazine pull-quote. That unvarnished syntax gives it credibility: a celebrity refusing the rehearsed “having it all” script and choosing the smallest, most repeatable pleasure. “Wake up by my dog and then my daughter” is a stacked image of uncomplicated loyalty and intimate responsibility - affection you don’t have to audition for. The dog comes first, not because it outranks the child, but because it signals routine: the early-morning constant, the creature that makes a home feel inhabited before the day starts performing.
The subtext is also a gentle rebuke to fame’s economy of novelty. If the currency is constant reinvention, she’s saying she’d rather be rich in repetition. “Boring” becomes code for safe, sane, and self-chosen - a life built around who waits for you when the cameras aren’t.
