Like others have stated, I could never hate Michelle, she seems like a genuine person amidst all the fakes in Hollywood. Michelle has had some pretty crummy things happen to her but the way she handles them seems to say a lot about her. With grace and an occasional statement about these events. Also she's so relatable, I can totally relate to a quote she said, "I didn't want anybody to know, that I didn't know where I was going." It's something that I've struggled with at times too.
I'm wondering if people are freaking out over the GQ interview because at times it seems like Michelle was set up by the reporter? Well... not necessarily set up more like he mentioned things to her which she said 12 years ago... which probably shocked her and whatnot. However, I do think that this is still a very honest interview and she told the truth, or as much as she felt comfortable telling.
