For a long time, I was almost ashamed of being an actress. I felt like it was a shallow occupation. People would be watching my every move.

What's awful about being famous and being an actress is when people come up to you and touch you. That's scary, and they just seem to think it's okay to do it, like you're public property.

Actors do these really gross, gun-'em-down movies, and I always wonder why. They're not good movies. And it's like, "Why are you doing them? Aren't you rich enough?"

I would love to someday do a play. I did one when I was very young in San Francisco, where I grew up. A girl can dream.

What's great is my parents aren't stuck in the '60s. My dad is so into the culture of today.

As an actress, you want to try new things. You don't want to repeat yourself. That becomes more important to you, as you get older.

Break-ups are hard for anybody, but it's particularly tough when it's being documented and you see the person's picture everywhere. Most people don't have that added problem when they break up with someone.
