I try to avoid barbecue potato chips. They're my weakness.

Because I was newly pregnant, I was sick as a dog, yet I knew all my lines from a year before.

Even actresses that you really admire, like Reese Witherspoon, you think, 'Another romantic comedy?' You see her in something like 'Walk the Line' and think, 'God, you're so great!' And then you think, 'Why is she doing these stupid romantic comedies?' But of course, it's for money and status.

After I had the kids, I took a break from work, and all my creativity went into my kitchen. I like experimenting.

We're human beings and the sun is the sun - how can it be bad for you? I don't think anything that's natural can be bad for you.

I remember when I started acting and didn't get a part and was really jealous of the girl who got it. My mom would say to me, "If you don't get a part, that means it's not your part. It's just not yours. You will have your parts." It really recalibrated me at a very young age to where I could be driven because I was trying to achieve things for myself, and that had nothing to do with what anybody else was doing.

You have to know why you're rushing about. It's OK to rush about but it's important to know what's driving you, the positives of it and the negatives of it.
