I'm a person who gets better with practice. Getting older is awesome - because you get more practice.

I actually did a lot of improvised movies or movies that were partially improvised.

In a sense, I like to think of the live performance as something different than the record, not necessarily looking to exactly recreate the record. Sometimes Matt and I just do duets folk-style. Part of the fun of seeing a live show is having it be different from the way that you hear it in your bedroom or wherever you listen to music.

I think every year I become happier because I become more comfident and more comfortable in my own skin.

It's really fun to say no sometimes. I just don't want to discount how fun it is to say no and exercise your right to say no, and - as a girl - it's important to know how to say no... and that no means no!

I'm not going to say I'm a big girl. I'm a very small person, but I'm a healthy weight. That might be a little weird for Hollywood.

After staring at origami directions long enough, you sort of become one with them and start understanding them from the inside.
