I've learned you can make a mistake and the whole world doesn't end. I had to learn to allow myself to make a mistake without becoming defensive and unforgiving.

I wanted to be the kind of woman who would attract a certain kind of man that I could respect. That was my thinking. It had to do with the kind of couple I would be a part of.

I like when there are complicated relationships, that there's a little bit of self-serving parts of it as well as a devotion to a person, and that there's a mixture of both in there. It's just I think that's a little more true to life. It's not always purely one way or the other.

I do like reality shows, and I watch some of them because they're high drama. It's also just fun to watch people have honest reactions.

I'd played dumbasses a lot. On Mad About You, I played a very dumb waitress and they saw me.

We wanted to do a woman on a reality show because that's what's happening right now-it's part of our culture.

In college I castrated 21 rats, and I got pretty good at it.
