Work very very hard. This business is no joke. Make sure you know what you want or you might be taking someone else's view instead of your own.

The pressure for an actress to look good and be skeletally thin is insane and unrealistic and it's a subject I've been fascinated by.

I'm pretty sure a lot of directors would be thrilled to cast age appropriate roles. I am.

The celebrity culture demands a camera-ready-at-all-times look or else the photo is circulated in a demeaning headline.

I wouldn't say that I was an actress. I tried to be an actress. I really didn't have the gift.

It was fun to create characters who had truth to them but were also made up so as not to completely offend!

I work hard and support myself.
