issues insecurity skins
I find the female tragedy of insecurity to be hilarious. We get obsessed over issues like the tiny skin tags on our backs or that we're fat. You read one line in a magazine and it sends you into a tailspin.
girl sexy baby
A friend of mine told me, you know your obsession with girls who talk like sexy babies? You have to put that into your script.
people funny-people
There are a lot of funny people and a lot of unfunny people. Some of them are women and some of them are dudes.
drama school years
I worked with an amazing dialect coach named Jill McCullough. We did Skype sessions while I was shooting "No Escape" in Thailand, actually. So three times a week I would have long, two-hour sessions with her just working on the nuance of the accent, which I had had a huge background in because I went to drama school in England for four years.
hobbies
You have to keep hobbies in L.A. Otherwise, it's sad.
insecure stopping auditions
I completely bombed the audition... I was insecure, stopping and starting. I went to the bathroom and cried.
sexy fun eclectic-style
I like my body, I like to have fun with what I put on, but I also want to remain classic. So I guess my signature is sexy and eclectic but classic.
men world roles
The producers had seen "In a World..." and that's where they found me out and consequently sought me out for this role [in Man up].
people my-best-friend matter
I have this necklace I always wear. I collect pendants from people I love; my best friends and members of my family have all given me one, and I put them on this chain so no matter where I am they're always with me.
fashion kids school
I love fashion. I always have. When I was a kid, I was in almost full-on costumes when I went to school, and I've retained a bit of that in my adulthood.
thinking thoughtful interesting
I think coming to work and being absurd and neurotic and thoughtful at the same time is far more interesting.
kind bustle thousand
I sort of loved the bustle of a thousand questions. Women are inherently kind of multitaskers.
country home garbage
I'm vegan on home base, but when I travel to other countries, I throw it all into the garbage.
people dairy acceptable
I am lactose intolerant, and I always thought it was really funny how people who are lactose intolerant continue to eat dairy, because they like it so much. And I find it not acceptable.
