“If your career is important to you, don’t get married and have children, because something will give.”
She added, “’I know as women we want to be able to have it all, but we can’t have it all at the same time.
“So make your priority of what you want at that time. And sometimes you don’t even have to get married. Why do you have to get married?”
She also joked, “People say, ‘But do you give him fashion tips?’ What are you, crazy? We’re talking about David Bowie. He is fashion.”
