My biggest regret is that I've assisted the media in making me into a cartoon character. I don't regret what has happened to me, but I regret the way I have dealt with it.

Even when I'm trying to be straightforward and honest and my comments are innocent, inevitably they get turned into something sort of salacious.

I know what you need as a female to feel not just comfortable but powerful.

When you think about it, we actors are kind of prostitutes. We get paid to feign attraction and love. Other people are paying to watch us kissing someone, touching someone, doing things people in a normal monogamous relationship would never do with anyone who's not their partner. It's really kind of gross.

To be outspoken, or different at all, is a problem for women.

Hold your head high, and your middle finger higher.

I've done one movie. And it's not a movie I want to stand on as far as acting ability goes. I mean, I'm not going to win an Oscar anytime soon. I'm not Meryl Streep.
