I was a smoker for about 20 years.

Bathroom humor, fart, and poo poo humor in movies gets a laugh. It's a pretty easy audience, and that's been around for ages.
I played teen roles until high definition came out, and I could never understand it. I would go in for adult roles and be older than many of the people auditioning, but they'd cast the girl without a line on her face.
I have no fears when it comes to my hair or clothes.
I do turn down things that I feel aren't right for me, like when it's some kind of adolescent thing that might typecast me, but I'm not worried about it.
I think getting married gave me a focus. It gave me a focus and direction I want to have in my life. And I think having another person that you make such a purposeful bond with has given me the opportunity to see how that can be with all the other aspects of my life.
I put my foot in my mouth every time I'm interviewed.
I don't have the pressure of being a world-famous bombshell that has detonated.
Jason Lee made me laugh all the time because he's so big, and I love how goofy bodies can be.
I'm open to anything. I would love to play someone completely off the wall.
My sister, I have a sister who's 12 years older, she was always the party girl, the outrageous one.
It was like I had a baby and I suddenly started to feel I could play anything.
I used to wear a lot of red lipstick, and when I got a pimple, I'd cover it up with eyeliner to turn it into a beauty mark.
I don't always know how to communicate. I think I get a bit unfiltered and a bit strange to people.
I'm flatchested, I'm short, I'm brunette, I have droopy eyes, and so people have a hard time casting me as a 'beauty.'
A wedding is such a girl thing.
I love to laugh and well, who doesn't?
It's fun to play mom. Last I knew I was playing a 17-year-old who graduated.
In high school I would mess with my hair and makeup all the time.
I have very little faith that I'll ever find someone. I've had some bad luck and I've made some bad choices - not in men, but in how I've chosen to deal with relationships.
God knows, I never want to hurt someone's feelings.
I'm pretty much a loner and I've lived under the radar.
I think I'm under the radar enough where I don't think I'm typecast as anything yet, so I'm pretty free and clear.
It's fun to go to the movies and be scared.
I went through a period of pulling away from everything - acting, people - not sure if I would ever have a voice in this business.
Perhaps I have managed some sort of longevity because I haven't won the lead roles. I don't have the pressure of being a world-famous bombshell that has detonated.
The problem with paparazzi is that it makes you question your boundaries, like, how do I say, 'That's enough guys?'
Part of me would love to have been a leading lady because there's a lot of glamour that goes with that and a lot of applause, but I've been very blessed.
I think Vegas is the answer for pregnant people because of insomnia. It's open all the time and you go down and play your silly slots.
I'm one of those hovering mothers and I know it's really important to have an independent child, so I'm trying to back off, but it's hard. I love him so much, and he's so funny and cute to me.
I don't like slugs and tentacles and calamari or anything. Actually, tentacles made me turn into a vegetarian in high school. I'm not anymore, but in high school, we were dissecting squid.
I think it's been confusing for people because I haven't had a linear career.
I can't afford security. I can't afford a gated house. So, I feel a little vulnerable. I wish some laws would come into play.
I go from being hugely hopeful and entertaining to... really not. I'm not manic depressive, but I can really go to the darker side.
I never want to be a showoff or attention getter or something that, truthfully, is kind of repulsive to me, but I get uncomfortable.
My first crush was Spock. I thought it didn't get any better than Spock.
I'm a working actress able to make choices based on characters rather than what I 'should' do for my career.
I think we all feel like misfits when we open our mouth sometimes, you know?
If I get married, it's something you really have to work at. It's hard enough to work at having a relationship with best friends and girls that are in the business.
I will do almost anything for the sake of a joke or for the sake of someone's real belief in something to help tell a story. I will not do something shocking for the sake of being nasty. If it's not hurting anyone's feelings, I'm in on the joke.
I have no ego, I'll make fun of myself, and I'll make fun of being humiliated. I get it.
I have three sisters, that's it for the family.
I think I'm more approachable with long hair. When it's short, I come across as being artsy and weird.
My mother dressed me always very conservatively.
