I got Twin Peaks, and the part was basically written for me, which was a really big shock. I think everything really changed with the right teacher coming together, but before that I worked with Sondra Seacat; she's amazing and very spiritual, but I hadn't worked with her on specific roles. I just was in classes with her.

Talking to fans has really blown my mind. It's made me so happy to know my work has touched people.

It's completely different to work with a woman that is my age, maybe younger.

I'm honest. I say what I feel. I try to be tactful, but I can't not say what I feel. I have a really big problem with that.

My gift to my children would be from me to be as honest and true to myself as an artist, and put that out there to the best of my ability.

Women do feel like they're in a box. Society, Hollywood, some men... they want to wrap women up in a neat little package.

I don't want my body to look like a man's. I just want to tone my body.
