She tries to get a waitressing job for a while - I mean, she's looking for a while before she finds Coyote Ugly - and it's hard to get a waitressing job in the city.

It takes a lot of guts to get up on top of a bar and dance.

I was glad to have had some dance background because some of the dances are pretty wild.

I got lost a lot, and I was a really bad waitress... I got lost on the subway.

I really like to just jump in a truck with your backpack and just drive and go somewhere.

I think that's why I like New York City because you can just put on your backpack and just explore; you never know where you are going to end up.

I mean, its hard to be an actor in the city - trying to make it as an actor - because you waitress all night, you get home really late and you're super tired and your feet hurt.
