I don't know if you can articulate an instinct.
I don't know about the romantic comedy route, although never say never.
I know from my own experience and from other people in the business that when you come from a place where nobody knew who you were and then there is this sudden shift to where everybody now knows who you are, there's an adjustment that you have to make.
I roller skated when I was younger, but when you're on a track that's slanted and you're with other people all skating in a pack, it's a whole different sport.
I like to write and draw and paint, and my mom's an artist, so I think I get caught up in thinking, 'I'm afraid it's gonna be bad,' and it's hard for me to start sometimes.
Why can't there be a lot of great women who are doing great things?
I think it's an interesting thing to watch when a person is trying to keep it together and then ultimately when they do lose it a little bit.
You have to leave things that you love.
I don't know if I even consider myself a comedian really - I do comedic acting in some films and dramatic in others.
I love kids. All my best friends have kids, and I love, love, love kids.
I took guitar lessons and recorded the song in New York. It was kind of a dream. I got to pretend I was a recording artist for a couple days.
I am a big David Bowie fan.
I'm one of those people that really pays attention to the music in films.
I would put Flintstones vitamins in it in case I got tired, so I could pop some and keep walking.
