I just ultimately wanted to be a mother. I love children.

In my career, I'm very grateful for the opportunities.

Now Ive got this moniker that Im the foot-in-mouth gal, and I keep thinking, In what way? Because I said something you dont agree with? Because I said something you dont like? Im just telling you my opinion. I hate the idea that I cant be honest about how I feel about things because its going to piss somebody off who feels differently. That seems preposterous to me.

The world is still very bigoted.

I'm not really a first-move kind of gal.

I was the youngest child and really spoiled. I loved to play make-believe. I loved pretending to be all kinds of different people and it just seemed natural that I would go into acting.

My mother is a great source of advice and wisdom and consolation for me.
