When you're shooting at 9 A.M. at a club, you have to use all of your acting skills.
I am wrestling with the overalls trend. I wore so many pairs in junior high, and no one thought they were cute. Perhaps I'll try them cuffed with a tasteful crop top?
A movie that I've seen probably the most is 'Fanny Alexander,' the Ingmar Bergman movie. I even dragged my friends to the super long version that had an intermission. I don't know how much they liked me that day.
I think we've probably all read a word that we've never heard pronounced out loud, and we try it out in a sentence and fall on our face.
I'm a very boring person in my real life so I got to act out misbehaving fantasies was really fun.
My grandfather can barely even hear, and Chevy Chase makes a face, and he laughs.
While I love film and want to continue to pursue it 100 percent, my home is TV.

There are these important things in some people's lives that can make you laugh even when you're going through a tough time or a stressful week.
It really does mean so much when your cast mates, who you respect so much, tell you that you made them laugh.
I first came to LA auditioning during pilot season. I didn't really know anyone. The only people I'd meet were the girls I was up against at auditions. It wasn't the friendliest bunch.
