I love acting and I love cinema more than anything,
I refrain from lots of things I love, like cheese and carbs. I eat plenty of greens every day, my favorite being watercress.
After having done this whole slew of press for 'Big Love', now I'll have anxiety dreams for like a week and a half about all the stupid things I said. I can't even imagine being in front of the cameras all the time. I had a weird dream the other night that I was on 'Jersey Shore.'
But I think she is a very sympathetic character. I fell SO in love with her! It's the greatest part I've ever had.
For some reason the public has embraced me as a fashion icon, and I feel like it has diminished me as an actress. Or I don't get as much recognition as an actress -- and that upsets me.
I got the call about the show when I was in my car. I had the meeting the same day, and we pretty much signed the deal.
I was really shocked at myself for signing on without knowing where it was gonna go, or much of anything else.
I have so much admiration for people who devote their life to the church, ... I was quite inspired by Clara. I was inspired by her drive to do good, by her willingness to sacrifice herself and her body. How inspired she was inspired me.
We got along really well, thank God. We'd go out at night to parties and stuff, and hang out together.
It's not really about disco. It's about these characters that the movie revolves around and their relationships with each other and it's more about the dialogue.
The umlaut isn't on my birth certificate. I had this book as a child called Chloe and Maude, and there was an umlaut on the e, and I said, I want that! It's a little flair. Just to confuse people even more.
In Hollywood, you can't say anything bad about anybody or everyone is going to attack you.
If I'm feeling down in the dumps, or like I need a pop of colour, I'll put on MAC's Lipstick in Lady Danger. I discovered red lipstick when I did the Oscar season: Chanel sent me one and I realised how classic and glamorous it can be.
When I was a teenager, I was really into hair; I dyed it different colours and had loads of haircuts. I shaved my head when I was 17 - it was pretty radical!
