fulfilling picked pilot wonderful
I picked them because the pilot was just a no-brainer because it was so fulfilling and wonderful and awesome; that's the show that got it started.
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.
ethic given happen happens kids money peers people rich seen strange work
That's what I find is just the work ethic of some of my peers I've noticed, and it has to do with how they were raised. And I didn't come from a lot of money either, so I never had any kind of strange thing that can happen with rich kids where they're not always given discipline. Not always, but I've seen that sometimes. But it happens with people with no money too, so. . . .
nominated
It's a cliche, but just being nominated is cool.
party social bigs
I'm not some big party chick, so it's not like I have to keep up my big social life.
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.
mind disease aids
AIDS is a state of mind, not a disease.
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!
fun thinking giving
I just think it's fun to remind people that good television has exited and it can exist again and just to give them pleasure and enjoy it and make them laugh.
want bob dylan
And you don't want to just totally mess up the rhythm when you're playing with Bob Dylan.
independent television buying
And you know, we did it as an independent film, and we weren't expecting it to be on television, and Lifetime ended up buying it. And the viewers responded intensely to that film.
teacher math mouths
Since I was born I wanted to entertain and communicate. I wanted to communicate so badly ... My sixth-grade math teacher taped my mouth. I'm still out to get her [for that]. It was very traumatizing!
interesting people week
Playing in front of an audience was just such a turn-on for me, and you have 200 people in the audience and it's like doing live theater. And filming something that goes to millions of people several weeks later, it's an interesting dynamic.
