But men and women, getting along, it’s a joke. We have completely different brains, it’s a completely different thing.
I’ve always tried to be pretty healthy, eating well and exercising regularly. I definitely give myself treats.
Sometimes, you know, I cry. And sometimes I scream. And I get really angry. And I get really upset, you know, into wallowing in self-pity sometimes. And I think that it’s all part of the healing.
How do you survive Christmas? You drink a lot. And drink a lot, right. Drink a lot and drink a lot.
It was not easy for my mother, being a struggling actress and raising a child. We were these two sort of vagabonds, never knowing where the money was going to come from. She always says she couldn’t afford a babysitter, which is why she put me on the stage.
Instead of hitting the treadmill six days a week, I try to spend as much time with my daughter and fit in a bit of cardio during the week. Although, running and playing around with my three-year-old keeps me pretty active as it is.
I think maintaining relationships with my friends, my mother, my manager, they’re all important.
I started doing radio commercials for Kmart when I was 4. They had to splice all my consonants together because I couldnt talk very well. But these jobs helped my mother and me put food on the table. It took the two of us working.
I wasn’t one to go out and buy a new car and stereo system and expensive clothes. My mom helped keep me grounded.
I’ve been vegetarian for so long now that I don’t remember anything different, so it’s easy for me to put meals together and make sure my family is eating healthy, too.
Every single kid in my group of friends at school was from a single-parent family.
The holidays are also a time when people freak out about their finances. If you don’t want to spend the money, why not try some of the other options instead of killing a bunch of animals?
I love Christmas. I really do love Christmas. I love being with my family and I love snow. I love the music and the lights and all of it.
Sometimes I stand there going, ‘I’m not doing any of this right!’ And then I get this big man belch out of her, and I go, ‘Ah, we accomplished this together.’
I laughed more in the hospital than I ever have in my life, making fun of all the weird things that were happening to me.
I don’t want to raise a child by myself. I could do it. But I definitely don’t want to. I want to be a mother who has the original father there.
Take no moment for granted.
Comedy can be very freeing. Laughter truly is the best medicine.
There is something about laughter that can take away all the darkness.
Thought is creative. Be mindful of where your attention is, because the universe doesn’t know the difference. It only knows where your focus is. Life will surely manifest where you put that attention.
Everyone in my life thinks I’m competitive because I want to win, but it comes from me wanting everyone to have a good time. And when I see that people aren’t enthused, I try to make it really uncomfortable for everyone so they get enthused and want to play hard.
