I don't have time for superficial friends. I suppose if you're really lonely you can call a superficial friend, but otherwise, what's the point?
We have a kind of pact. If anything ever bothers us, we don't hold it in for one second. From the first day we met, Jen would just drag me out and start telling me stories about her relationships,
We were hoping that the audience was going to be happy about it and not like, 'What they are doing?' ... So when we got a good response, we were really excited. This is my favorite year so far.
Sometimes I use Botox. Compared to most, I use it very sparingly. One time I did too much, though. I feel weird if I can't move my face, and that one time I overdid it, I felt trapped in my own skin.
When people start messing with their foreheads and can't lift their eyebrows, that's weird.
If anything ever bothers us, we don't hold it in for one second, Cox continued.
She's an all-round friend and she's incredibly loyal.
That part wasn't so bad. It could have been worse, ... We could have been having to change outside or something.
I like to walk into a house and go, 'Rip up the brown shag carpet and open up that wall with some French doors.'
I know her backwards and forwards. I loved Monica, but you still get tired of it.
In this movie, I feel like I didn't notice Monica in it at all, ... Your instincts would probably be to think about Monica, but I have to make sure you don't.
I had a lot of questions, but they were more about the character than the plot. Greg and I talked a lot about the details of her inner life and the way she coped, a lot more than how I was going to look. Since the story is open to interpretation, I thought it was really important that the character be emotionally accessible, that the audience would be able to identify with her struggle.
I don't think I would ever quit acting, but there are other things I am interested in. I wanted to be an architect, and I wish I knew more about landscaping.
I don't think I'm too thin at all. I understand when people say, 'Well your face gets gaunt,' but to get your bottom half to be the right size, your face might have to be a little gaunt. You choose your battles.
