Actress and Kentucky native Ashley Judd said Thursday she had no second thoughts about her decision against challenging Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell in Kentucky’s U.S. Senate race this year.

“At this time, absolutely not,” Judd told Politico Thursday. “And I’m grateful for that because life is not always so tidy. I didn’t understand why at first because it was a very below-the-neck experience, it was very guttural. I didn’t have an explanation at first but then my life became very clear in terms of my need and desire right now to spend a lot of time with family.”

Judd was in the crowd when President Barack Obama spoke in Nashville Thursday along with former Vice President Al Gore.

“I’m here because it is always a privilege to hear the president of the United States speak,” Judd said. “I came as an American and as a fan.”

It is difficult for actresses to get roles if they are unwilling to take their tops off. The actress that plays Deny Targareon complained about it. The nudity in Game of Thrones makes it almost unwatchable (I can't with teenage daughters in the house). Yes I know it is in the books.
