I Need Tommy Lee Jones to Read Margaret Qualley's Text-Message Manifesto
"I don't feel like I'm always good at representing myself publicly in real time, so I would almost rather say nothing at all?"
"Because rather than have the wrong idea about me, someone just wouldn't have any idea about me."
"I love my husband, my family. I love dancing and horses. I love the moon. Happy crying is the best. I love listening to Tara Brach and books on tape. And anything Jack writes. Female friendships are so holy, shout out Talia Ryder. My sister was my first soulmate. I wanna die on a farm. I need to learn how to drive stick, my brother tried to teach me but I was 12 and it didn't land. Smokey, dog, god. I love you world, thank you for having me."
Margaret Qualley generally avoids discussing her husband, mother, and hypothetical family plans in public. She sent a long, heartfelt text listing personal loves and idiosyncrasies: husband, family, dancing, horses, the moon, happy crying, Tara Brach and audiobooks, Jack Antonoff's writing, female friendships, her sister, a wish to die on a farm, learning to drive stick, and evocative words like 'Smokey, dog, god.' The free-associative, poetic tone mixes macabre and joyful impulses and conveys a fully realized personality distinct from sanitized celebrity press. The monologue-like quality invites consideration of dramatic performance.
