I can do comedy, so people want me to do that, but the other side of comedy is depression. Deep, deep depression is the flip side of comedy. Casting agents don't realize it but in order to be funny you have to have that other side.
I watch soap operas. I bake brownies. Normalcy is coursing through my veins.
I would like a nice, powerful, mind-altering substance. Preferably one that will make my unborn children grow gills.
People are like, 'Was it fun? Did you eat lots of cake?'
But it's fun to be something, have that, and you don't have to be real. It's like, comedians. They go on and they're doing all these jokes. I would be like that if I were more awake
I wouldn't say I was a queen. Maybe a little elf
I like soap opera acting. If it's done really well, there's nothing better. It's old school. It's like what those melodramas in the '30s and '40s were like
I don't want to sound like too much of a drama queen! But I'm not going to tell you, 'Oh, it's just so much fun.' It's work [working on film].
I'm having too good of a time.
Black eyeliner says 'You've been through stuff, you know things'.
I'm the character actor in Hollywood movies, the girl who has to be annoying so the guy can go to the other girl.
An actor's career relies on a lot of luck. Being in the right place at the right time.
I'm trying to work in studio movies, but they won't hire me.
I don't Twitter, although sometimes I think that I should.
