I probably never would have been hired on Broadway had I not moved out to LA and pursued acting and film, which is sad really.

I'm one of seven kids. That'll keep your ego in check.

I have worked with some of the meanest people in the world. You can't do anything to intimidate me.

That's always been my philosophy: I try to just be as straightforward as possible, and then I don't really have to question what I said or regret anything.

Perfect isn't normal, nor is it interesting. I have no features without makeup. I am pale. I have blond lashes. You could just paint my face - it's like a blank canvas. It can be great for what I do.

I still think I'm like the poor girl from Colorado who worked three jobs to buy a car. That's still my mentality, so I'll be walking down the street, and I forget what I do and who I am.

I'd love to be a diva. But I'd then have to send so many apology notes for my abhorrent behaviour.
