I mean if you two were to make love, that would be gay. Two men touching each other physically and emotionally...erotically caressing each other...on the hood of a car...or the back of a movie theater...
Just because I'm married to Doug doesn't mean I can't be here for you.
I would love for people to know that the label 'feminist' is something that everyone should wear proudly, because it just means that you support women.
I used to go to open mics in New York when I was starting out, and it was mostly just people who wanted an audience to look at them for eight minutes on a stage.
You go from nobody looking at you to people taking second looks. I remember really loving it - and then feeling so guilty for loving it. Like, 'That's gross, Kristen.' Also, telling myself it could go away at any moment, and I'd be so sad.
I would be an actress for the rest of my life just because it's really relaxing. Writing is hard work, and stand-up is so stressful before you get on stage, but acting is a complete ensemble experience.
It's not hard to be a woman in comedy as long as you're also a writer. You have to create your opportunity.
I've been lucky. The projects I've gotten to work on are projects I'd want to watch myself. That's what I try to shoot for.
'Rock of Love' with Bret Michaels was fun. He's a lovable guy.
My sensibilities are like, 'I want it to be weirder.'
I'm not really a control person, and I'm a big believer in collaboration. I like to have a friend.
I don't enjoy reality television at all. I have to say that I get it, though. I watch some of it, and I understand why people enjoy it.
I definitely had a Paul Rudd crush. He's great.
I would never bring a kid to a comedy show myself, but I have noticed that I can't stop other people from bringing their kids.
