Sometimes decisions get made and it ends up being God doing for you what you couldn't do for yourself.
I had my heart set on becoming an English teacher, but stumbled into acting after meeting a theatrical agent in my dad's restaurant in San Diego.
When you gain 50 pounds during pregnancy like I did, you fear that you'll never get back in shape
When I was eight years old, or I may have been younger, my aunt picked me up and threw me in the pool and I didn't know how to swim. It was like, "Conquer your fear and just get on with it." It must have made an impact on me.
I don't think that they know fully what's happening with Miss Match so therefore I don't know how many more if any, if the show's even gonna keep going.
When I was first starting out, and I was less established, I was really concerned about being typecast.
So I begged, half way into season two, for them to let me cut my hair.
Always trust your gut and your intuition will steer you right, every time.
This is funny because I just had a job over the summer for VH1, a project I did called Strange Frequency where I got to play a Goth rock band singer.
Sure, I'd take the responsibility of queen any day.
Oh heck yeah, I totally would love to have a Phantom Dennis in real life.
I did Playboy for a very specific reason. Not only was it a good financial move, but it was about the place I was at in my life.
Cause I was such a novice and thank God that Sarah was as seasoned as she was because she was really a great leader in that regard in the sense that she would communicate really well with the crew.
The road Cordelia has travelled, the journey she has taken up to now has been such a joy to play as an actress, because there have been so many chances to do so many different emotions.
