Cheerleading was my way in. It was one of the most rigorous audition processes ever. It definitely groomed me for Hollywood.

I'm a wife and a mother. I don't want to be immature; I have to be ready at all times.

I'm a girl in boy's clothing. I like to get a little rough. I prefer mud to makeup. That's me in a nutshell.

I saw Madeleine Stowe from Revenge recently, and she totally blew me away. And growing up I loved Morticia Addams and Lily Munster on one hand, and Jeannie from I Dream of Jeannie on the other. Two completely different ends of the spectrum, kind of like me.

It's fun to work on location because you get the look and feel of everything, but it's nice to be on a stage because you can control the elements.

I feel that as the world becomes more and more multicultural, it's a good tool to be able to speak another language.

I'm not one to be messed with. I can be bad when it needs to happen.
