I wasn't the high-school play queen or anything. And my parents would let me act until I graduated from college.
I'm a lot more selective with work these days. My perfect plan is to do one movie every nine months. It would have to be a project that I found inspiring. It would also have to include other actors and a director I am inspired to work with.
I understand that if you set out to be a celebrity, then you asked for it, but all I wanted to be was an actor.
There's something that sort of weirds me out about actors who want to be rock stars, and the other way around too.
I put on the fat suit and went outside and walked around. I was really nervous about being found out, but nobody would even make eye contact with me. It really upset me.
I love acting, but I have two little kids, and it's 14 hours a day out of the house. You don't get that time back.
I feel my dad, I still feel his love, and I still love him. I would do anything to have him back, but half the reason that my life is good, has real, true value, is that he died. I would obviously rather have him alive, but he gave me so much in his death.
I'll immediately gain, like, 5 pounds even just by thinking about cutting out dessert. It's a nightmare. I decided, for me, the healthiest thing was to eat what I want and just exercise. Some women can watch what they eat, but I just can't do that.
I was very interested in art and art history. I probably would have pursued that somehow - working in a gallery or an auction house.
My relationship with my father was the most central relationship of my life from the time I was zero to 30.
Oh my gosh. That's terrible. I had no idea. I've known her since I was a little girl. That's really awful.
Everyone else thinks it must be the most safe, most advanced and most covetable pushchair on the market.
It's sort of banned from our home, ... But when he's not around, we play it in the car.
To have to imagine everything, sometimes it is a little bit daunting. Especially when they would tell you to react to something.
