I think, as an artist, whether you're making people laugh or cry or be frustrated or excited - the fact that you're generating some sort of emotion out of an audience is, to me, worth it.

A lot of people loved to hate my character on 24. I want to be the character people love to love.

I really know right from wrong and apply that to my life. At home, I was the oldest of three. My role was to be the responsible one.

I definitely believe in fate. And I believe what you put in is what you get in return. That's the way it's worked for me. As for the big picture - there's some sort of plan.

Yeah, I've gotten a few letters from prison.

I guess there's a vulnerability in seeing a female character trying to get out of something really drastic.

Theres nothing more romantic than Italian food.
