I think people today are very cynical. They need to bring other people down. Reality television and tabloid magazines—never before did we need to see movie stars taking out their garbage. But all of a sudden, it's front-page news—trying to figure out who's dating whom, all that stuff. Who cares?
I always feel like I have to prove myself as an actor, otherwise you get lazy if you're not slightly terrified that you're going to fail all the time.
Obviously filming and working has consistently been a part of my life. I've never had a huge break of time when I wasn't working on something or promoting something.
You have to believe that you can act and that you're the right person for the job but I think it's good to not always know how you're going to do it. The fun part is trying to figure it out.
If you feel glamorous, you definitely look glamorous.
I believe in finding a soulmate.
I once heard that women dress for women -- not for men -- and I think that has some truth to it. Men, what do they know? They don't know if you gain or lose five pounds. They're oblivious to those kinds of things. A lot of men will say "I like you just as you are." And you're like "But I'm bloated!" If they're attracted to you, they're attracted to you.
I find beauty in unusual things, like hanging your head out the window or sitting on a fire escape.
I'm just a big believer in 'you must love yourself before you can love anybody else,' and I think for me that breeds the most inspired relationships...
When we live our lives everyday, we're met by opportunities, and most of us don't even recognize them.
There is nothing strange, creepy, or inappropriate about John Travolta .
I'm from New York so I feel very at home in London. It's like a metropolitan breeding ground for culture, art and diversity. I was very moved by how accepted I was there. There was definitely less need to wear my big sunglasses.
If you're comfortable with yourself, then it's sexy. Maybe people think I look sexy because I feel sexy. I am a very liberated person that way. I'm very comfortable with my sexuality, my body, my face - well, sometimes I'm not comfortable with my face, but it's stuck there and there's nothing I can do about it.
I don't think I need too much help. I think my head's on pretty straight, and I'm pretty realistic about things. I'm very focused, so that certainly prevents me from going all over the place.
