I'm not a period babe. Not at all.

I had to grow the hair down there. But because of years of waxing, as all of us girls know, it doesn't come back quite the way it used to. They even made me a merkin - a wig - because they were so concerned that I might not be able to grow enough.

If I had a child, I wouldn't let them go to drama school. At times, I was really unhappy there.

I kept on going and I overcame my fears and got over my insecurities.

There's something really empowering about going, 'Hell, I can do this! I can do this all!' That's the wonderful thing about mothers, you can because you must, and you just DO.

If you're not still learning and growing as an actor, then you have no backbone and no career

I wanted to play incredibly challenging, multifaceted characters. Because we are all a puzzle.
