I think Paul Newman had an amazing career. I also love what Tom Hanks has done. He has always made very grounded movies that have something to say. He has found a way to make blockbusters that are about something and that is what I want to do.

The thing I can say about all this stuff that's going on right now is that I appreciate it.

Soap operas are such a great way to break-in to the industry. The diminishing landscape of daytime TV means its going to be harder for young talent to get discovered.

Relationships, if you want them to work, take work. The biggest thing that I learned growing up, and even now, is if it's right, it's worth it. It's just a matter of finding that person you want to be with.

I've teamed up with PetSmart Charities to celebrate the five million homeless pets who've found homes through their in-store adoption centers, and to spread the word about how we can work together to save millions more pets' lives and, ultimately, end pet homelessness.

I'm not a completely closed book; I'm a social person and if I see something worth sharing, I'm happy to do that.

I don't know who came up with this push present idea, but I think it's probably a female.
