Our audience is all the girls who made Britney a huge star. Those are the girls who bought the book. I didn't read the book at first. I read the script just to see what I would think of the script and I really liked it.
The actor side of me loves to get dressed up and I feel like Cinderella when I'm in diamonds.
I'm a fan. I would have been a fan of Candyman even if I hadn't been in that movie. I'm a huge fan of Star Trek, which is why I was in Star Trek: Voyager - because I begged them to be a part of that lore.
You can't not be into basketball and grow up in Chicago or live in L.A., because people are so fanatical about the teams. You know what's going on with the games even if you don't watch.
It's almost like I get to be more theatrical when I work in voiceover.
I love when I get to play these characters that are bigger than life. There are roles in animation that I never get to do in real life - and it appeals to my ego as an actor to play the Queen of Everything. I admit it.
When I was growing up, the really, really cool super heroes were all male - so I wanted to be them.
Sadly, I really want to be Batman ... and I just never will be.
I want every movie to be like a big family and a great adventure.
Everything that I play as an actress is a different aspect of me.
I love Keri Russell. I watched every episode of Felicity, and Waitress is my favorite film. I like her voice a lot - it didn't surprise me that she would be doing voiceover work.
If my son would only listen to my advice, he would lead a perfect life. I'll still be saying that to him when I'm 75. I like to imagine that I have the control, but he's a teenager, so that never really happens.
Men, we don't need you to be a knight in shining armor. We just need you to be a little bit brave, just a little bit. And some of them are, and that's what he does.
I hope Britney doesn't get bummed out that Lindsey is a better singer. It is not Lindsey saying it, it's me. Lindsey would never say that. She's an actress first. It's just a bonus that she can dance and sing.
