"... I'm young and I stand up for myself, and I'm a very strong person and I really believe in what I do and I believe in my talent ... and not a lot of people like that."

Shannen Doherty in "The Arsenio Hall Show" in 1992 (in 1992 she went on Feruary 27 and September 25).

Honesty. I think the sexist Hollywood world, the old-fashioned capitalist world, don't like to have a strong, confident and open-minded woman around. That's why she is a "bitch" or a "bad girl" automatically. As for the 10 resons to HATE her... no comment (is this for real?).

Lights! Action! Attitude!

People, April 5 1993

They Break Hearts, Deals and Chops, but Divas Like Sharon Stone, Kim Basinger and Shannen Doherty Don't Give a Damn

(...)

Something is happening in Hollywood. The studios still may not be making  movies with great women's roles. But lately, a gang of bright and  beautiful actresses have adopted a take-no-prisoners stance on life,  love and career, and they are emerging as Hollywood's latest breed of  badass—women with heaps of attitude and absolutely no regrets. Some  members of this willful bunch are bankable names; some are not. Some, like [Sharon] Stone, live in palatial homes in the Hollywood Hills; others are  living from party to party. Last month an L.A. landlord started eviction  proceedings against Shannen ("I don't care if people call me a bitch")  Doherty, claiming that the Beverly Hills, 90210 star was $14,000 in  arrears on her rent and had caused serious damage to her house.  

If any one thing defines these women, it's their abject refusal to play by the old rules.

[When Doherty (out with 'Beverly Hills' co-star Tori Spelling at LA's Roxbury Club last year) backed out of the Emmys, director Walter Miller called her "a colossal pain in the ass"].

The ultimate live-for-today type, though, is probably Shannen Doherty,  who plays both showbiz and real-life bitch. The founders of The I Hate  Brenda Newsletter had no trouble finding rich material in Doherty's bratty misbehavior on the 90210 set or in her slapfest with a would-be actress at an L.A. nightclub. So flinty is Doherty that she dissociates herself from the rest of Hollywood's new and bumptious breed. "Like I  would ever wash my hair with Evian water!" she said recently, responding  to an allegation raised by someone who had obviously confused her with  Basinger. "For one, how do you get your hair totally clean that way?" Ah, yes, finally someone who's not afraid to ask the basic questions!

[The problem with her image, says Doherty, is that people don't distinguish between her on-and-off-screen personas: "They hate the character [of Brenda], so automatically they hate me".]
