I don't think I'm too thin at all. I understand when people say, 'Well your face gets gaunt,' but to get your bottom half to be the right size, your face might have to be a little gaunt. You choose your battles.
I don't like venison or sushi - I don't want to eat what some people think are 'luxurious' foods.
Some people were offended by a show about cougars.
So many people have so much trouble having kids.
I'm a real people person and I'm very sensitive, and I've just noticed how other actors that I've worked with, as an actor, take direction from people.
It's not like I let people do things for me, so I guess you can call me a control freak, or you can call me passionate.
I understand how to read people, and nurture them and guide them, and let them be free to do what they want to do.
A lot of times people say, 'As soon as you relax you'll have a kid.'
It seems like everything is so polarized. You get the caricatures of people, the caricatures of their beliefs. "I hate this kind of person" or "I love this kind of person." But actually, there's a lot of great things about them. There are things to like. There's possibility of change.
When people start messing with their foreheads and can't lift their eyebrows, that's weird.
We have a kind of pact. If anything ever bothers us, we don't hold it in for one second. From the first day we met, Jen would just drag me out and start telling me stories about her relationships,
We were hoping that the audience was going to be happy about it and not like, 'What they are doing?' ... So when we got a good response, we were really excited. This is my favorite year so far.
If anything ever bothers us, we don't hold it in for one second, Cox continued.
She's an all-round friend and she's incredibly loyal.
