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

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

I did a lot of theater growing up, and in college I was in the musical 'Chicago.'

I think it's important to love what you do and have a good time with it. I go to work every day and have a blast.

I actually got more attention from one episode of 'The Sopranos' than I did from two years of 'The L Word.'

I love guns. I love shooting guns.

I really got into 'The Walking Dead.' That was genius. And I have to say, my husband is on 'Shameless,' and I think it's a brilliant show.
