I seem to recall reading in her first autobiography that she was told that
her speaking voice was too high for movies ... so she would go out to the
Hollywood Hills with a carton of cigarettes, smoke them and scream till she
was hoarse. That's how she got her sultry sexy (aka damaged) voice.

So what's Demi Moore's excuse??
