I always loved music, but it's not something I thought I was gonna approach on a professional level.

On a deeper level, I just feel like women have so many expectations they need to carry, so many different laws these days, and one hand they need to be sexy, and on the other hand they need to behave properly, and on the other hand they need to get what they want and take care of themselves.

The new film I'm shooting in Jerusalem - which is partly why I'm here in Israel - is something I co-wrote.

I started acting when I was 13, but it really wasn't my plan. The actual decision to become an actor was when I was 17, after I didn't act for half a year because I came to an exchange student program in the US, and I realized how much I missed it.

I treat both acting and writing as a creation - writing is just another element or aspect of it.

Israel has the mentality of a small Kibbutz. Kibbutz is kind of like a small village that - actually there aren't many Kibbutz left in Israel - but it was something that was based on socialism and based on a principle that everyone is working for the Kibbutz and the Kibbutz is one.

I like to take on a different role every time or else I make myself bored.
