I have an obsessive character. I manicure my nails at three in the morning because nobody else can do it the right way. Maybe that's the secret to my success.
I don't do damsel in distress very well. It's hard for me to play a victim.
Claims have been made that I've been on a strict workout routine regulated by co-stars, whipped into shape by trainers I've never met, eating sprouted grains I can't pronounce and ultimately losing 14 pounds off my 5'3" frame. Losing 14 pounds out of necessity in order to live a healthier life is a huge victory. I'm a petite person to begin with, so the idea of my losing this amount of weight is utter lunacy. If I were to lose 14 pounds, I'd have to part with both arms. And a foot.
I have always... expected a lot from myself.
I'm so tired of hearing casting directors ask if I have a sore throat. The people who have told me that my voice is distinctive, it's unusual...those people have always been close to my heart.
I would have loved to have gone into diagnostic medicine.
I'm not a statistician, but it doesn't take a genious to work out that 100 million children being denied an education is ridiculous. There is nothing lost in translation here, it's obvious that's wrong.
LA's a very hard place to be unless you have people there that love you. It can be very, very lonely, and it can eat you up if you don't take care of yourself. In LA, nobody wants to talk to each other, everybody's giving each other catty looks.
I believe in finding a soulmate.
I don't go to McDonald's anymore. After I saw Super Size Me... no way!
I would never knowingly go into a film that I wouldn't pay to see, or something that didn't challenge me.
I value my privacy and my personal life - and I certainly don't exploit my personal life.
I hope they make a video game of me. At least I wouldn't have any cellulite then.
It's important not to lose who you are in a relationship just because it's nice to cuddle with somebody.
