In a new interview with Details, Shannen Doherty admits, "I haven't made the best choices in men."

(She famously married George Hamiltons son, Ashley, in 1993 after two weeks of dating. They split seven months later.)

But out of all of her past romances, Doherty says she has no regrets over Rick Salomon, who appeared in the infamous Paris Hilton sex tape.

"There was something that Rick provided that was amazing to me," the currently single star tells Details.

Still, she adds, "I look at what he did [with Hilton] and think, 'God, that's disgusting.'"

But during their 2002 marriage (which was later annulled), "I never had someone make me laugh so much. I was madly in love. It was a really hard marriage. When it ended, it was a heart-crushing thing."

As for her future on CW's 90210, she says, "We all agreed we'd see how it goes."

She said she wouldn't have done the show if her character Brenda "was stuck in the same spot.

"There were moments when I hated Brenda, but there were other moments when I saw vulnerability and greatness in her, and believed her passion for life would make her a great actor but not someone you would necessarily want to hang out with."

See then-and-now shots of 90210 stars.

"I don't think Brenda was a complete brat," Doherty adds. "She was fueled by her insecurities: not being from Beverly Hills, not feeling safe in that environment. And then the love of her life was stolen from her. That can really injure a young girls esteem."

To this day, she said she is thankful for the role.

"I can pay my mortgage and ride my horses because of those [original 90210] fans," she says.

Starring on the spin-off, she adds, "is how I can repay them."

    She is my favorite character in 90210. I never liked Kelly at all. Actually, I'd prefer Brandon and Brenda, but they were siblings...

    I love Brenda and I hate the fact that in the end they've decided to have Kelly and Dylan... they are so wrong for that choice, and Kelly being a b!tch about it to Brenda, she should burn in Hell he was Brendas FIRST!
