love-life character and-love
I just kind of understood it, and I threw my love for others and love for life into the character, and was having a blast. I loved playing Dharma. I loved it!
mind disease aids
AIDS is a state of mind, not a disease.
men thinking television
There's a power in women being women. There's a role for men, but we don't have to be men, because we're women. I think that representing that on television is a cool thing.
meaningful sex benefits
I do not see how it's possible to have a "friends with benefits" lifestyle, because if the sex is great, it's going to naturally expand into a more meaningful relationship. Otherwise, it's just a booty call.
philosophy believe thinking
In other philosophies, my questions would get answered to some degree, but then I would have a follow-up question and there would be no answer. The logic would dead-end. In Scientology you can find answers for anything you could ever think to ask. These are not pushed off on you as, 'This is the answer, you have to believe in it.' In Scientology you discover for yourself what is true for you.
party social bigs
I'm not some big party chick, so it's not like I have to keep up my big social life.
fate up-to-you make-it-happen
There is such a thing as fate, but it only takes you so far. Then its up to you to make it happen.
It proved to me, though, that comedy is so much harder.
crack feeling home playing remember
It was the most pleasurable thing I've ever done, playing this character, and I just remember feeling so at home and so - I don't know, I was just happy - and it just wasn't ever work! It was like a sandbox for me, and I would crack myself up rehearsing.
dancer films music performed
No. It's on films I've done and such. And I was a dancer and I performed music videos. It's just, I've been around.
compete good trying
You know, she was a girl. She was a female. And she wasn't like, trying to compete in a man's world and she wasn't trying to be in a man's position, she was just who she was. And I think that was like, a good thing.
nominated
It's a cliche, but just being nominated is cool.
character people generations
And I'm so excited to remind people and even gain new fans who find out about Dharma - a new generation who could find out about Dharma and enjoy her and all the characters on the show.
Like, to do a pilot, you don't know what's going to happen with it.
