Actress Jenny McCarthy recalls being bullied in an all-girls Catholic school in the 1980s, where she faced harassment for her interest in hair and makeup, with some girls even attempting to light her hair on fire. Despite the difficult experiences, McCarthy learned resilience and how to not take things personally, eventually finding strength in spirituality and self-deprecating humor. She also reflected on her career, including hosting the dating show Singled Out, as a way to not take herself too seriously and make people laugh.
