asks brothers deck younger
Everyone asks me if I'm the princess or if my brothers beat me up. The younger ones I can deck pretty easily. With the older ones, it's harder.
agree says
In Israel, if a person doesn't agree with you, she just says no. In Alabama, someone would say, 'I'll think about it.' We would take that literally. So, if you ask for a favor and someone says they'll think about it, they're really not thinking about it.
act acted agent home plays tried wrote
I didn't act in Israel, but I wrote plays at home and acted in plays at school. I tried to get an agent when I was 12, but they told me that I had too much of an accent.
country war writing
A lot of movies that come from Israel are about war, but there is such good, funny, rounded writing that comes from the country that I wish more people would discover.
home giving fake
Ever since I was younger, I would make table reads at home where I would give fake interviews.
baby children play
Whenever I look at a baby or children in general, I smile and just want to play with them.
song fun play
Our writer would play the piano and then come up with songs on the spot that included all of us. It was so fun!
challenges accents
It's a challenge getting rid of your accent.
dialect-coach two three
I went to a dialect coach and she told me that I had five problems; two were my Israeli accent and three were my New Jersey accent. I don't even want to know what I sounded like back then!
hate looks watches
It was so hard to watch myself back because whatever movie I do, I never look at the monitor. I hate looking at the monitor.
school talent theater
I've always been into theater and movies. When I was in school, I did a monologue for my talent show. I would go to the local theater. I was always in dance. I was always performing. That was always my thing.
perfect parent challenges
It's a challenge getting rid of an accent by yourself. I have parents that have such thick accents. They are like, "She sounds fine." They didn't know. To them, I spoke perfect English because their accents were so heavy. I don't even want to know what I sounded like. I don't want to know!
worried all-time
I'm worried about everything at all times.
looks bohemian obsessed
I become obsessed with one thing or one look, a Bohemian look for instance, and then I wear that for a while.
