When you're kissing on camera, it becomes an issue visually. It looks like a skinny dinosaur creature is trying to kiss someone. It doesn't look good. It does not look like the classic romance kisses. If an actress is 5'3" and I don't bend down to kiss her, she would probably be kissing my lower sternum.

It'd be hard to be a lead actor if I didn't have lips. Those are tough to graft back on.

I graduated from Brown in 2001, moved to New York, and spent a year and a half just looking up Backstage magazine auditions and grinding.

That's what I like about acting. You don't know where you'll be in year.

If you will excuse me, your coat lapels are badly twisted downward, where they have been grasped by the pertinacious New York reporters.

Teasing was big in my family, and there is a wonderful way to tease and make people feel more loved.
