I said, going into acting, 'I'm never moving to L.A.,' because it scared me. But there was no way you could build an acting career in Orange County.
First of all, plain and simple, you have no real idea of what it means to be famous until you become famous. It's a double-edged sword. Obviously there are a lot of amazing things about fame, but there are also a lot of challenging things about it.
The whole celebrity thing never is normal and I think the fuller your life is, the more you are able to just kind of call a truce with it on a good day.
Somewhere along the line I made the switch and was able to look at the bight side rather than the dark side all the time. Now I look at everything I have and think how lucky I am.
I used to smoke two packs a day and I just hate being a nonsmoker... but I will never consider myself a nonsmoker because I always find smokers the most interesting people at the table.
Having a full-blown company is just something that I don't have the time for now, ... I was just starting to feel really depleted, and the kids are getting older and the demands are different now.
They were distracted for a split-second, which was all it took for the other man to jump into the car.
I wasn't able to do any press for it.
Children will respond to this on a different level than they normally respond to animated movies. They won't be entertained in the same way, but it will make them curious.
I am basically very private, and I'm really nervous about doing publicity.
I've been working since I was 14, and my father, being very conservative, has always been strict about my having a savings account.
I'd been taking singing lessons and I had taken dance, because I loved to dance, but I had never considered myself a professional at all.
I've worked with very few actors who have been at all difficult.
Maybe I haven't done enough movies, but haven't found that men are more difficult than women.
