Jodie Foster has been a Hollywood star for almost her whole life, and as a child, she was subjected to excessive pressure.
She talked about her life and profession, including how she became the main provider after beginning her career at age three in a Coppertone commercial, in a recent interview with The Atlantic.
Foster said to the source that Brandy, her manager, and mother would frequently worry about their money.
“It was me. I was the only one making money,” Foster remarked.

In several of her early roles, like as her Oscar-nominated role as a teenage prostitute in “Taxi Driver,” Foster showed maturity beyond her years, yet she still yearns for youth and, more crucially, seclusion.
The “Silence of the Lambs” actress said to The Atlantic that, although she didn’t enjoy being followed by a documentary team when she was 13, she didn’t decline because she believed it was her obligation to her family and career. When they wanted to follow her to Disneyland, she broke down and went to see her mother, remembering that all she really wanted was to be a child again and have no one notice her.
