My mom always said fighting with me as a kid was like going to court. I'm trying to realize that being right is not the most important thing.
College is expensive; I always knew that, and I wanted to make money, partially to spend a little of it here and there, but primarily for a college savings fund.
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.
I feel like so often I'm just, like, running around and eating in the car, which is, like, not good, or eating as I'm walking down the street.
There is a great degree of comfort with your family when you're on a TV show.
It feels kind of naughty when you're swearing on set and you know it's gonna make it in unbleeped on the show.
I think if I was in over 250 films, the world would get pretty sick of me. I would probably never get put in anything ever again.
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.
