A Quote by Missy Franklin

I don't like watching myself on TV, I don't like reading about myself. — © Missy Franklin
I don't like watching myself on TV, I don't like reading about myself.
I hate watching myself on screen! I absolutely hate it, it's so hard to watch. I can see myself in magazines, but watching on TV or movies is like, 'Ugh.'
Honestly, I hate watching myself on TV - I have always hated watching myself and listening to myself.
Reading about myself on public platforms makes me uncomfortable. I don't like it. I read other people's interviews or articles, but when it comes to myself, if I see something about myself then I immediately turn over the page.
It's been very jarring for me to stand in public and read about myself and my daughter and her father. I feel like I'm reading someone else's story, and I feel like I've lost something, too, in the writing of self, as if I'm standing and reading myself, as a stranger, to other strangers.
I like watching different kind of shows, but I hate watching myself on TV. I feel I am a terrible actor.
I don't sit around and read papers about myself. If I see myself on TV, if I don't like it, I change the channel.
At the beginning of 'The Hills,' I couldn't watch myself because I'm very critical and would pick myself to pieces. But with movies I feel like it's different because you're playing a character. So it's like watching yourself but not watching yourself.
The sign that I don't like the book I'm reading is finding myself watching reruns of 'Come Dine With Me.'
When you screen a film like 'The Missing Picture,' it is not like watching TV. Watching TV is very solitary. When you watch cinema, you watch it together, and you talk about it after the screening.
When I see myself on TV, it's like watching a film with Bruce Willis in it. You think it's somebody else. It's weird.
I have a hard time watching myself! Usually I do the work, and then I leave it. So I pretend like I'm not on TV every week.
Whoopi Goldberg looked like me, she had hair like mine, she was dark like me. I'd been starved for images of myself. I'd grown up watching a lot of American TV.
I think the whole Flawless thing backfired in my face. I'm just like, 'oh, man! We're out here calling ourselves Flawless, and being the most obnoxious characters, that even I wanted to slap myself sometimes!' Even I would get sick of watching myself on TV!
So when it comes to being a role model to women, I think it's because of the way that I feel about myself, and the way that I treat myself. I am a woman, I treat myself with respect and I love myself, and I think that if I'm holding myself to a certain esteem and keeping it real with myself, then that's going to translate to people like me.
I don't like myself you know. I love myself. I'm devoted to myself till my dying day. But I don't like myself.
I'm not a fan of watching myself on TV - it's just not relaxing. It's like if you hear your voice on a recording: it doesn't sound the same as when it comes out of your mouth.
