I am most proud of my integrity and least proud of my cynicism.
My first job was in sixth grade, sweeping the clay tennis courts at the yacht club near my house, which I was not a member of. Always had to pay my own rent. But I don't really have any concept of how money works. I don't know how much things cost. Like a BMW. Or a quart of milk. It's embarrassing.
It's hard to encapsulate my inspiration because there are so many different looks, but I think it's just like, sexy girl you see walking down the street in a cool outfit. A lot of eyelet, a lot of leather, playing with the hard and the soft, the good and bad inside of us all.
The film industry is so fickle about financing, and it's so difficult to get movies made.
I've been texting for a year with a couple of guys without ever going on a date with them.
I've been an outsider all my life - I don't care.
I know who I am by now. And I am my own brand.
I wish I could take back every interview. Over and over again, I read them later, and either I'm misquoted or I said something stupid. I'm just not very good at it.
I'm not the greediest person. Of course, I work in a business where that's all relative and there's a lot of money to be made. I think I'm satisfied making as much as I have and I don't feel particularly driven to have more.
I bought a pair of Birkenstocks today - let's be real. I wanted a chunky sandal that was functional. That should tell you where I am at as far as fashion.
I am a Scorpio, and playing the seductress appeals to me. There are a lot of women throughout film history, like Marlene Dietrich or Mae West - those are the women I was always attracted to. The bad girls.
I would love to do a sweeping romantic period drama, like Jane Eyre. That would be my dream. It's always been my dream, as far as acting.
I think once you're past 30 you shouldn't wear a lot of glitter.
When I get a fringe, it's because I'm bored or need a change; I always regret it!
