I was raised as a tomboy with boys, and I never really feel like myself when I am really dolled up at premieres and showbiz events.

In real life I'm obviously a lot more shy, but once I'm on set and in costume and I'm hidden behind the person I'm playing I feel quite free to experiment.

I tell my girlfriends - 'Imagine if all the time you put into waxing and primping, you took all of that energy and put it into something useful.'

I love acting, love it. It's the greatest fun in the world. I've never had trouble feeling extremely grateful.

The great thing about doing physical comedy for film is that if it doesn't work you're not exposed. It ends up on the editing room floor, so it gives you a lot more room to experiment I guess. But I really enjoy doing it. I'm very comfortable tapping into my inner idiot.

What I loved about breast-feeding was that bond of one-on-one time. The serotonin that's released calms you down and connects you to the baby.

I usually go into a store with a mission. My idea of a fun thing to do would not be to go to a mall and shopping.
