I'm an Oscar nominee. I love saying that. Whatever happens, I'm going to sing that 'I'm an Oscar nominee' part.

I gotta go home and feed my eels. They're not electric, but I have a plan.

I look for roles that resonate with me these days. While I love putting out just fabulous entertainment, I think now as artists, especially with so much uncertainty going on in the world, you want to be a part of things that offer or promote healing in some way and perhaps a little introspection once you leave.

As an actor, you don't become Meryl Streep by doing the same type of comedy. You get there by being challenged.

Let's just say that I have a tendency if I am uncomfortable in a situation to speak my mind.

Weight issues, race issues will always be there and if you allow them to get to you and you allow them to affect you then yes they affect you. But my thing is I have so many other things to worry about I can't worry about other people's perception of me.

You never write a speech in advance because if you don't get to use it, you'll be heartbroken.
