From the time I was wee big, my mother was one of the first members of Mary Kay Cosmetics. Women going door-to-door and letting housewives have their own business - that was really a breakthrough. It was huge.
I always wanted to get out of L.A., but time passes, and you find excuses to stay.
I have Spanx on. Always! I have to wear them all the time!
It took me a long time to grow up.
I'm not up there with Kate Winslet and Julia Roberts. I don't sell tickets. I've known that for a long time.
I secretly want to skydive, even though it's my greatest fear!
I've been told I've done a lot of flop movies. And I think, 'Wow, I've never considered them flops!' I've loved every character I played.
The word 'demand' is a tricky word when used by our gender. When used by men, it's part of their vernacular.
The seasoned woman is going to offer a more seasoned character.
Entertainment and escapism - those are the bigger money-making films today.
The revolution of electronics hasn't taken away the good smell of books. It's really hopeful to see.
People buy box sets, and they sit for a whole weekend with a computer on their lap in bed, and they watch two seasons back-to-back of a show. They are invested in the person within that arc or the dynamics of those people - the relationships - and it doesn't matter to them if they're watching it on an iPhone or a cinema screen.
I've always been a T-shirt, Levi's, leather jacket, and combat boots kind of girl.
Running gets everything done, doesn't it? Covers it all.
