For me, as an actress, being a dancer has helped me. I've done it with my feet bloody.

I will never forget experiencing Venice for the first time. It feels like you are transported to another time - the art, music, food and pure romance in the air is like no other place.

There's some great women doing TV. I would love to do a Grey's Anatomy-type show. I'm a big fan.

I tell girls, 'If you're tall and feel too tall, the answer is to be taller.'

I just love creating an environment where people can open up and say what's on their mind and in their heart.

No movie influenced me more to go after my dreams than 'Flashdance.' After seeing it, I took 15 dance lessons a week. I cut all my sweatshirts. I did the 'Maniac' thing.

One thing I've learned: My intentions are clear in terms of quality.
