If you're with someone who enjoys having people play hard to get, maybe that's the way you're supposed to do it then.
I was thrust into a really lofty, enviable, but isolated position with 'Princess Diaries' in that I could carry a film before I really knew if I could act.
Everybody has bad relationships and, at the end of the day, they are just a great way to set yourself up for a good relationship.
My entire film career's been dependent on my ability to look unattractive.
You can alter movie singing so much because you go into the recording studio and, just technology for recording has gotten so good, you can hold out a note and they can combine a note from take 2 and a note from take 8.
The way I go about choosing roles is basically by just trying to pick the complete opposite of the last thing I did, or if it has someone else who I really have wanted to work with.
I've been extraordinarily successful for my age. I think for probably anyone's age, I'm very fortunate.
I love the short-haired lifestyle.
Everything that I have ever hoped to accomplish, she has done and done better than anyone I have ever seen.
I'm pretty good at remaining calm during an emergency. My house burned down when I was 12, which made me really pragmatic about what needed to be done. But I can be bad in that I compartmentalize a lot of emotions and push them away to deal with them at a later date.
When I got my start, I kind of got my big break with The Princess Diaries and during the press rounds for that everyone asked me: "Did you always want to be a princess growing up?" And the truth was, no I wanted to be Catwoman. And I think a lot of women feel that way. And the fact that I am actually her is such a dream come true. It's such a pinch me moment. And the fact that I am Catwoman in Chris Nolan's Gotham to Christian Bale's Batman is unbelievably cool.
I loved Catwoman's sense of humor. I love how sly she is. I love how she, to use a cat metaphor, walks the fence and you don't know which side she's going to come down on. She's totally independent. And let's face it, she's badass.
Each Catwoman is specific to the Gotham City she lives in and the director that helps shape her. So it's kind of hard to have a favorite and I'm not just being political, it's hard to have a favorite because each one is so specific as themselves.
When Chris Nolan is your director you are like, "I trust that, I'm wrong."
