on Little Women due to age. Turned down replacing Shannon Doherty on Beverly
Hills 90210.
- Aerosmith videos, knows how to work her best feature, the upside-down
teen-doll smirk that lends her angel face just the right hint of womanly
concupiscence.
- Between the ages of 4 & 6, she secretly believed her mother was
pop queen Olivia Newton-John and once danced to "Physical" atop
her family's coffee table

are stopped cold. "He's not my boyfriend. He's just a friend."
Alicia Silverstone - Noteable Quotes
- "I hate people who call me that Aerosmith chick!"
- "Look, I'm not just seventeen. I'm an adult. Don't speak to me
that way."
- "People think, 'Wow, you're an actress, so people must be really
nice to you and kiss your ass. NOBODY kisses my ass."
- "My favorite thing in the world is a box of fine European chocolates
which is, for sure, better than sex."
- "My boyfriend calls me 'princess', but I think of myself more
along the lines of 'monkey' and 'retard'."
- "I think I can deceive people. I'm like, the nice, sweet girl
when you meet me. And I don't have any bad intentions. But I'm a bad girl
too."
- "I don't want to be known as the Aerosmith chick, but it's fun
to put on the boots and makeup and act like a tough girl."
- "I'm the complete opposite of those characters. Sure there's a
side of me that wants to kill men, because they can be such silly little
boys, but in reality, I'm insecure and I freak out just like anybody else."
- "I'm very uncomfortable with my body, and I'm not interested in
people seeing it onscreen." "When my next couple of movies come
out, they'll go wow, she's not a psycho crazy person or a tough brat."
- "I'm the most unmaterialistic person you'll ever meet. I hate
to wear makeup and, like, for a year and a half my agent was telling me,'Alicia,
you have to stop wearing that green T-shirt to your interviews.'"
In answer to "What can't you live without?"
"I love, love, love apricot baby food. My closet in the kitchen
is filled with jars of it. I love Lucky Charms and Cocoa Pebbles cereal.
I love my purple couch, and I love dancing. I used to have the best stuffed
animals, but Samson [her dog] ate them."
-Alicia Silverstone on the characters she plays in "The Crush"
and the Aerosmith videos. A mention of Alicia in People:
Alicia Silverstone, 19, doesn't want to be known as the new babe on the
block. "I don't just want to be the girl boys get excited about,"
says Silverstone. This, despite playing a killer nymphet in 1993's thriller
The Crush, a femme fatale in three Aerosmith videos and being stalked by
a psychotic maniac in the current chiller Hideaway. "I have no desire
for people to see me in a sexy way. I won't do nudity ever." She rolls
her eyes at the mention of Drew Barrymore's January Playboy layout. "I'm
never going to do anything like that!" she says. "That's selling
yourself. I think sex is overrated anyway."
