Irony is the bringing together of two contradictory truths and to make out of the contradiction a new truth, with a laugh or a smile.
I know it’s not the right thing to say, but I’m really happy with my body.
I like to watch MTV for escapist pleasure, but when I saw Snooki, I saw my twin. I couldn’t lose myself in the show anymore because there I was.
I think it is so much more fun to discover film in the movie theatre when there is so much anticipation about the movie.
I loved Catwoman’s sense of humor. I love how sly she is. I love how she, to use a cat metaphor, walks the fence and you don’t know which side she’s going to come down on. She’s totally independent. And let’s face it, she’s badass.
Each Catwoman is specific to the Gotham City she lives in and the director that helps shape her. So it’s kind of hard to have a favorite and I’m not just being political, it’s hard to have a favorite because each one is so specific as themselves.
When Chris Nolan is your director you are like, “I trust that, I’m wrong.”
I can think of few things more painful than naming four good things about yourself in front of a room of journalists!
My passion is interior decorating. My goal for the next years is to get into carpentry, because I really want to learn how to make my own furniture.
My biggest fear is overreaching. I have been in situations where I felt swamped, and it’s turned out really well; and I’ve had other situations where I’ve had to walk off the film after five minutes because I realized I was in way over my head.
I’d love to be an artist that’s multifaceted.
I think the only thing in life that you really have to worry about is how you treat other people. If you mess up and treat someone else badly, you apologize, and you don’t apologize for anything else. Be yourself and go for it.
I’m a pretty boring person. I have a dog that I love, and friends that I love, and a family that I love. I’m just trying to spend as much time with them as I can.
Everyone makes sacrifices for their job; the movie’s not saying that you don’t have to work hard. The movie is saying that if you’re going to work hard, then make it worth it, believe in what you’re doing.
There’s nothing wrong with making little kids happy, but there’s nothing wrong with wanting to be an adult actress. I mean a grown-up actress.
I’m not attempting to be a role model but I accept that roles I’ve played put me in that position. I don’t feel a huge responsibility as an actress to put my young fan base first.
I really don’t drink, I don’t do drugs. I feel like right now I’ve been given so many opportunities I don’t want to mess it up with those things...
I’m always curious about how actors cry on film.
I always think I’m terrible. So it’s always a relief when I find out that I wasn’t. I’ve had roles where I realized that I was in way over my head – and that is my biggest fear.
I would have played street cop number three if it meant getting to work with Chris Nolan.
I love employment, and it’s never, ever guaranteed. As much as I love doing animated voices, I just love working.
