Personally, my twenties were a complete waste of time. Professionally, I hope some good came of them.

I've never for a second felt like my job has been more of a struggle because I'm a woman.

Comedy and drama are less ageist media for women than stuff like light entertainment. But in TV or film, women have to be more pleasing on the eye than men.

There are lots of actors, and you need a way to stand out. Writing comedy sketches was a way of doing that.

Spending way too long worrying about what people think about me is a bad habit.

I'll cry anywhere because I can do it quite subtly. Walking, that's a good time to have a cry.

I was the kid who liked making other people laugh, so maybe the comedy came before the acting.
