awful
Everything I sang sounded awful. So I went outside and I screamed. Everyone pretty much agreed it was awful.
moving monograms ifs
My rule is, if it's not moving-monogram it!
order tennessee louis-vuitton
I grew up in Tennessee. We didn't know what Louis Vuitton was. I had to order all my prom outfits out of catalogs.
being-yourself joy actors
The joy we get as actors is out of transforming ourselves into something that's not necessarily anything true to ourselves. And it's a power - not being yourself, and being in the role; it's just like another prop.
kids cheesy meat
For our first date, I made Ryan Hamburger Helper, which is basically what I grew up on. I make my own version of it now, with macaroni and cheese and hamburger meat. And the kids - it's their favorite dinner.
Every day you have to choose and cultivate your own happiness.

I'm trying to make it cool to be a good girl.
character journey important
I was debating whether to do Legally Blonde, and I saw this interview with Gloria Steinem about how important Goldie Hawn's role in Private Benjamin was for women; by the end of the movie, the character socked her fiancé in the face at the altar because he didn't understand who she'd become through her journey. I was like, "I feel like Gloria Steinem told me to do Legally Blonde. That's how Elle Woods is too!"
laughing people important
There's something timeless and important about making people laugh, about being the right spot in their day.
play june religion
To play June, I had an immediate connect with her background and culture. We grew up with the same religion and shared a lot of the same values of family and spirituality. But I was really so inspired by what a modern woman she was.
hate divorce negativity
There are things in my life that are hard to reconcile, like divorce. Sometimes it is very difficult to make sense of how it could possibly happen. Laying blame is so easy. I don't have time for hate or negativity in my life. There's no room for it.
army people courageous
To be courageous , you have to have an army of people holding you.

I don't think I realised how stressed I was, being a single parent. It was really, really stressful. It's not easy on anybody.

I read while the kids play. I can see them from the kitchen window. And I'm a fast reader.
