Picking projects, it’s always director first and then script. Those two things are pretty much head-to-head.
I don’t want to go to work and get into bed with someone else, not even Tom Cruise. It’s not like I enjoy it.
Believe me, you can get into a lot of trouble being sixteen years old in a foreign country with no adult telling you when to come home.
You have to really be able to trust the director. It’s about the filmmaker and whether or not I’m going to be able to have a relationship with them and want to follow them down that road, wherever it may lead.
I have to remind my dad, ‘Journalists – no matter how many cigars they smoke with you – are not your friends, so don’t talk to them.’
I don’t even own a TV because I think it’s the devil.
I never felt I had to prove myself with anything.
Grease is the only cure for a hangover.
The last couple of years were hell. Like, I can’t even tell you, it was so hard. I didn’t know how to handle it. But I think I’m in a much better place now, because I stepped away for a second and took a breath. Hollywood is a funny place. It offers so much, but it can also take a lot away from you.
To me, that’s the wealth of my life: my friends and family and the experience I get to share with them.
I think we have to make our own rules. I don’t think we should live our lives in relationships based off of old traditions that don’t suit our world any longer.
I’m a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl.
Sometimes I enjoy talking, but when it’s like people are trying to find something out about me, I don’t.
I mean, I can get things done if I need to, but I can really be completely irresponsible and procrastinate until the very, very, very bitter end. In fact, sometimes I work better under pressure.
For me, gratitude is the only attitude.
Script for an actor is like a bible. You carry it with you, you read it over and over, you go to your passages.
I’ve never been a fluffy sort of woman...
I’m someone who loves to enjoy life and tries to focus on real things and real friendships. That’s why I live very simply.
I would love a family. I’m at the age where the wish for a child gets stronger. But who knows.
Crowds are the most difficult thing for me these days because I have to walk with my head down and my eyes averted. There’s still that part of me that wants to hold my head up, make eye contact and smile.
Your regrets aren’t what you did, but what you didn’t do. So I take every opportunity.
