Growing up, I was a very shy, wallflower type. I was not a nerd, but not popular. I was just invisible, like that person you probably didn't know you were in school with.

The Farrelly brothers make movies the way you imagine a movie set would be when you're a kid - fun all the time.

I'm not one to air my dirty laundry for the whole world.

I didn't want to go to college. I wanted to move to Los Angeles right out of high school.

I say it was like this accidental research that I did for eight years. I had no idea I was researching the role of my career. But yeah, and there was this one casting director named Allison Jones, and for five years she would call me in every year for a different TV show and she just really was a big supporter of mine.

I spent my whole adolescence, when you just want to be accepted, looking much younger than everyone else.

I'm a believer in the parent first, friend second philosophy, and trying to find that balance.
