I think men don't know what they want, so the idea of not knowing what they're getting makes it a little easier on them.
Money is the longest route to happiness.
Diets are a fool’s errand. I eat something sweet every day, whether it’s chocolate or a cookie. If I don’t, I guarantee you that there’s going to be a day every week when I’m going to stuff myself, especially if it’s PMS time.
I love getting older! I really believe that a woman doesn't reach her peak until her 40s.
My valentine is always my dad.
The directors did an amazing job and Josh Holloway is just he's just shining. I think that, of the people I started working with, he's one of the people I'm most impressed with. How he's grown and learned and he's been just stunning everyone with his performances.
I was a good student, I was good at soccer, I was vice president of the student council, I was a pretty girl.
I didn't grow up in a home that glorified Hollywood. We didn't watch TV. We didn't have a lot of magazines around.
I'm a very stubborn woman and I'm from a very stubborn family of headstrong women. I have sisters, so the women rule the coop in my house.
I'm very picky when it comes to men. I come across a man who I'm really attracted to about once every five years.
A month and a half after my first audition, I won the role on Lost.
I definitely come down on the spiritual side. I think very few things in life happen by chance.
When I got old enough to date, I realized that Valentine's Day is just a commercial marketing scam to make men feel bad. So I let my boyfriends off the hook.
My family didn't have a lot of money, and I'm grateful for that. Money is the longest route to happiness.
