Moore tells Sawyer she does not believe it was a straight transaction.

She said her rough childhood transitioned into Hollywood, because of her “I have nothing to lose” attitude. Moore shares she had issues with alcohol and cocaine. Sawyer and Moore then watch her old films in her movie room.
She talks about the criticism she received for commanding $12.5 million for “Striptease.” She said, “Why shouldn’t I. Why shouldn’t all women be paid equal to the quality of the work their doing.”
