So, I'm the Eighth Wonder of the World. It's flattering and very, very funny.
There's no amount of money that would make me decide something for a career.
Unfortunately, we live our life in public, so any weight gain or pimple is a national story. I don't get this obsession with weight. It's not only Hollywood; it's our society.
That’s not who we are as a nation, and let me tell you why: Because the Eva Longoria who worked at Wendy’s flipping burgers—she needed a tax break. But the Eva Longoria who works on movie sets does not.
I got my degree. More importantly, I got a key to American opportunity. That's who we are - a nation that rewards ambition with opportunity. Where hard work can lead to success, no matter where you start.
That's typical Gabrielle, ... Marc has a very clever plan for this pregnancy. It's going to turn her world upside down
I'm super careful with my skin and make sure to protect it. I always sit under an umbrella. And I'm a sunblock bully. If you're on the beach with me, I will spray you down with SPF 50-plus.
I don't regret anything I ever do or say. I don't like to live my life being censored. I like to say what I feel, and I think people respect that because you're honest.
Baking is too precise for me. I cook with a pinch of this or that.
It's not a party unless I'm cooking. Some people find entertaining stressful, but it is therapeutic for me; I find it relaxing.
I'm a pageant girl from Texas, so I like makeup and hairspray. And the smoky eye? I think I was born with it!
I would say 80% of the scripts I get are dramas and not comedies or romantic comedies, which is funny because that's what I do every week.
I'll talk about my Tony all day long.
I think what destroys Hollywood marriages is our work schedule, not so much infidelity.
