I'm much happier and more fulfilled than I thought I would ever be, especially when I was going through a lot of grief when I was younger. I hope it lasts.
I had never held a baby in my life. I was one of those women - people would say, "Do you want to hold my baby?" and I was like "No ... "
It's the greatest thing that ever happened in my life, my son.
I'm at a strange place I suppose in my life. I think that what happens when you lose a parent, where you lose-you drop into a different kind of serious.
That just sounds so funny, A-list. Really, I'm a mom, and that's how I'm going to be all my life.
Love should be that person that inspires you to be a better person.
I don't see the point of doing an interview unless you're going to share the things you learn in life and the mistakes you make. So to admit that I'm extremely human and have done some dark things I don't think makes me unusual or unusually dark. I think it actually is the right thing to do, and I'd like to think it's the nice thing to do.
People have two sides, a good side and a bad side, a past, a future. We must embrace both in someone we love.
On the superficiality of the industry: We are setting an example of what we think is beautiful and you really want to put that much make up on me?
When I was growing up I never babysat. I was considered to 'punk rock' to be trusted with kids.
Yeah, but before anything, I think in 6 years somehow I've grown up to have a beautiful home, 2 beautiful stepchildren, a beautiful husband, my family is healthy and happy. I'm financially ok and I do what I love for a living. That's what I think, and I think god, how did I get so lucky.
The interesting thing for me is that everybody felt that I was really wild when i was unbalanced and desperate to communicate something and didn't have a sense of purpose. But I've never been so crazy and wild as I am with my son or as I am now.
I thought I'd become a funeral director when I wasn't going to be an actor.. I thought I would be good at helping some people with the grieving process and with trying to get them to talk about and understand who this person was.
When someone loves you, and when you make someone happy, you suddenly start to feel the most beautiful person in the world.
