Every time I was driving on the L.A. freeway in a small car it was very unnerving for me. One time I rented an SUV and it just changed my whole perspective of driving and I was converted to SUVs from that day on.

My husband is pretty particular about his cars. In his opinion, the Mercedes are the best of the best.

It's one thing to be this 'tough chick,' but you also have to be likeable.

The only place I really get recognized is at Ralphs. Whenever I'm in L.A., I go to Ralphs, and for some reason, everyone there recognizes me.

I actually prefer getting into roles that are the polar opposite of me; that's why I've done so many dark and dreary things.

I don't think Mercedes-Benz says anything about me, really. I was in a situation where I was able to get a really nice car and I'm proud to have it.

I'm actually not a very good driver, to be honest with you. I'm a scatterbrain driver. I'm not very focused. I'm always trying to find the right music station or put on a new CD or trying to eat something.
