mom paranoia
Now, I love playing moms who can't hide their paranoia.
silly character thinking
Improv is more than just spitting out a bunch of funny stuff that's unrelated to the material. You have to stay in character, you have to react and respond as the character you're trying to play. You have to service the story, and I think improv training has helped with my listening, responding, and my audition technique. It's sounds so silly, but it's true. Because not only do you improvise during the audition, but once you get the part, they'll say, "Throw away everything. Just improv this scene. Do whatever you want." Someone could panic if they're not used to doing something like that.
burnt forbid god houses litter nail smells
Different people's houses smell like different weird things. God forbid someone should come and nail down what my house smells like. It'd probably be a litter box... sweaty socks... and burnt bacon. That probably is what it smells like.
hard life people
I like to play the weirdos. I like to play the people that are hard to like. You get to say and do things that you would never say and do in real life.
absolute life oh
Oh my gosh, if I could be on '30 Rock', my life would be made. That is my favorite show. My absolute favorite show.
acting career class good spend time
If you want to play the good roles, spend more time in in college and in acting class than you do in the gym, and you'll have the career you want.
life natural
Pulling away from your parents, that's the natural thing to do; that's how life progresses.
beat diane dresses love tend wrap
You can't beat a Diane Von Fostenburg wrap dress; I always tend to go for the wrap dresses with a little more structure. I also love Prada shoes.
books bunch cheer cheers funny good movies perfect rely
I've got a bunch of books... I rely on funny books and movies to cheer me up. Oh, but I must say, I do have the world's most perfect husband, so a cuddle from him always cheers me up. He's a good guy.
chubby guy meant network
You have to ask yourself if you want to be the kind of actress who's interesting, or the kind of actress who's meant to play the pretty-but-uninteresting wife of a chubby guy on a network sitcom.
