She stated that earlier she could freely party and do whatever she wanted without being worried about any unwarranted attention.
“It was great, I’m talking about doing cocaine and not getting caught. You could be in a bar having fun, dancing on the table. There were no camera phones, especially in New York, no paparazzi. You could go tumbling out of a bar and go home with any guy you wanted and no one knew.”

The Se7en actress also revealed earlier that she took drugs. She also believes that psychedelic drugs can be a thing of great benefit in the future.
