She added, “I may be many things, but I’m a very hard worker, right?”
Despite being “imperfect person” Jolie said, “i work very hard and she does.”
She went on to describe the connection between them, saying that Callas and her would see themselves as “performer or worker who has a job to do,” due to which they might be “hard on themselves.”
