The minute I feel nervousness or anxiety or fear, I go, 'No, no, that's not a thought that I need to have right now. Everything's great, everything's good, you're going to be fine'.

It's a shame to call somebody a 'diva' simply because they work harder than everybody else.

I remember when I was 33 or 34, it was devastating because I realized I wasn't a kid anymore. The great thing about 40 was that I really felt like I had life experience and knew what I was doing now.

You have to come in and be that character when you walk into the room. That's what one of my first acting teachers taught me. You know, don't go in there being Jennifer and then expect to flip and change, because they're not going to have that imagination.

It's a real roller-coaster ride if you're lucky to have longevity in this business - you have to be able to ride those waves.

And I deal with all that by being like a perfectionist. But that's okay.
