school
I was a drama-class nerd. I did whatever school production we put on.
arts booked few fine high school small weeks
My parents made me finish high school before I started acting, and I did, like, two weeks of fine arts college before I was like, 'This sucks. I'm going!' I got a few small jobs, and then I booked a big-for-Canada feature.
jesus school play
I did play Jesus in 'Godspell,' in high school, because I guess I'm a nerd.
dancer trained
I'm not a trained dancer - I know, I know, you're shocked, I'm sure.
applying believe chunk complex fake finish good hard house huge lashes leaving men shooting time
Believe me, when I finish shooting 'Mad Men,' there's a huge chunk of time where I have a really hard time leaving my house without fake lashes on. Which is a complex because I'm not very good at applying fake lashes.
good listen soundtrack time
I used to listen to the soundtrack for the movie 'Tank Girl' all the time. It was really good.
Acting is what I chose to do. It's what I feel I need to do.
men
'Mad Men' has been my big break. I'm beyond thrilled.
hard huge man marlene seen strength
I'm a huge Marlene Dietrich fan. She's got this raunchy kind of strength. It would be hard to find a man who could come up with something hard for her to handle. She's seen it all and done it all.
men
Working on 'Mad Men,' everything is word for word. And, honestly, I couldn't come up with anything better than that, so it's fine.
clears
Honey is hydrating and antiseptic. It really clears your skin, and it's moisturizing. You can use it every day if you want. It's so gentle.
believe bit good information normally work
In the work that I normally do, you have a whole script, a whole arc, that you play. And I do believe a good actor will play every bit of information they're given.
barely work
I don't know if you know this - I don't drive a stick. I mean, I barely drive my automatic. I get to work and everything, but I'm not any kind of driving prodigy.
beauty eyelashes hard influenced men routine series work
My own beauty routine is influenced pretty heavily from my 'Mad Men' routine. If I'm in the series of work, it's hard to see myself without eyelashes every day.
