I think that there are a lot of reasons to be insecure as an actress... But I don’t really have a perception issue. I’ve been pretty good about being who I am in the public’s eye.

I stand by every movie that I did. I don't regret any decision I made.

I think playing coy is silly. Speak your mind. If a man gets turned off, he's the wrong man.

My parents went through hell and back. They came to America with suitcases and a family of seven and $250, and that's it.

When it comes to picking parts, I do make an effort to choose parts that I want to do, and not necessarily parts someone else wants me to do, or parts that someone else is going to respond to.

I'm a huge, huge, huge fan of Steve Carrell and Tina Fey for years.

I mean I think people prepared me for like a lot of green screen [in Oz the Great]. I didn't have a lot of green screen. They build most sets. When this castle was tangible, Emerald City was tangible, the forest, the woods was tangible, the cemetery, everything was there.
