Michael Emerson is just a prince. There's something about him. He's so sweet. I don't know how to describe it. There's something about him that's a bit royal.
The goal as an actor is to constantly surround yourself with amazing artists who challenge you and make you grow.
Honestly, as an actor, all I need to know, the way I kind of look at a scene, is like a puzzle. There are certain puzzle pieces that are bigger than others, and all I need to know is if this is going to fit here to make this part of the puzzle work.
When I finish a workout I feel pretty sexy even though I'm sweaty and I don't smell like a rose. I feel stong. It does a lot for me mentally and physically.
I know it sounds weird, but my definition of 'sexy' has changed as I've gotten older. And being smart and informed makes me feel sexier than any outfit.
I really got into 'The Walking Dead.' That was genius. And I have to say, my husband is on 'Shameless,' and I think it's a brilliant show.
I love guns. I love shooting guns.
I like a man who can come out and say he's nervous on the first date. I think that would be really cute.
I have an incredibly dark, mysterious, witchy side and another side that's very bubbly and cheerleader-esque.
I hate girls who complain, 'Oh, guys are looking at me!' But I love it when guys check me out. It just feels great.
I feel that as the world becomes more and more multicultural, it's a good tool to be able to speak another language.
I don't really like 'acting' - I like things to feel as natural as possible.
I did a lot of theater growing up, and in college I was in the musical 'Chicago.'
I actually got more attention from one episode of 'The Sopranos' than I did from two years of 'The L Word.'
