It is with great sadness and a heavy heart that I have decided to end my six-year marriage to Ashton. As a woman, a mother and a wife there are certain values and vows that I hold sacred, and it is in this spirit that I have chosen to move forward with my life.

People - whatever their race, religion, sexual preference - deserve to be treated as human beings.

In a way, I feel that film roles haven't given me the opportunity to show I have a sense of humor.

I'm intensely private, and I've openly shown annoyance at the paparazzi.

Work has enhanced and certainly supported my feelings toward myself, because it's been a reflection of goals I've set. But if you're not happy with yourself on the inside, then what does it matter?

I've never been one of those people who has an extremely high level of crisis. I just don't need all that emotional drama.

Certainly I'm passionate and driven and quite relentless when I want something.
