I'm now a pretty good mix of my mother and my stepfather because I'm in general pretty mellow. I'm not hyper-emotional. But there's also this side of me - my mother was an artist and very funny and a dancer and very wild and into fashion. My stepfather traveled a lot, and I kind of took on a role of parenting my mother a lot of times, because she was pretty hard to handle. A bit of a pistol.

There's something a lot more self-conscious feeling when there's cameras coming in for close-ups. It makes you very aware.

I'm always going to do whatever I think is funniest. If something's dark, I'll do it. If it's a sock puppet, if it's a stool, I'll do it.

Everything's happened to me. Nothing can happen to me now.

I didn't just want to be the one who was always looking around at the weird family members. I wanted to make my mistakes.

Life can very genuinely and realistically pile things on. It doesn't dole out the heartache and pain, or joy, perfectly.

When I got sick, it threw everything off course.
