There are certainly a billion, ker-trillion girls out there more attractive than I am.
Sometimes in film and television, I don't have the opportunity to play roles that really stretch and challenge me.
Shakespeare set a lot of his dramas in a historical perspective or war perspective, or he would study what was going on at that time.
Everyone thinks offers are always pouring in. Offers have never poured in. Never. I was auditioning a lot, but I didn't get the jobs.
My schools were quite diverse - those who serve their country come from every race and religion - and so the military schools I attended were a wonderful melting pot.
I love physical comedy. I adore comedy of any kind.
I examine other people's characteristics, so when I'm playing characters, I don't always have to make them me; I can transform into others.
The trophy wife must be in her 20s to earn the title 'trophy wife.'
I was always an exhibitionist. I liked it when everyone laughed. But I didn't do plays in high school. I was too nervous.
In my opinion, Zac Efron is a total hero. Him seeking help encourages other people with addictive issues to seek help. It's brave of him.
In any film, there are 10 male roles for 1 female role, especially in the action films. They're heavy with the guys.
Oh, I just love being a character actress. You have a lot of fun, and not only that, you save tons on cosmetic surgery because you never have to have liposuction.
The important thing is that when you correct your children, they see what they've done wrong and why you're upset.
I'm fortunate to have a team of people who help me. I've got an assistant, an office manager, a nanny - she's not full-time, but she's there when I need her.
