First of all - I only believe what I see.

Hollywood is a world all its own.

I get a lot of recognition for my voice. That always surprises me.

I just wanted to be married and to be happy ever after.

Now I listen to all kinds of music except rap, which all sounds the same to me.

Nudity... I have to say I will never do it again.

I just want the opportunity to continue to do great films, play great characters and work with great people.

I find nothing wrong with the naked body.

But what I like to sing mostly is blues and cabaret style.

Children are so creative and imaginative that they just bring you to life all over again.

I can cry at the drop of the pin. But comedy is hard for me; it's the timing.

We're not all called to be Dorothy Day.

You know, I like playing around with my voice and trying all different types of kooky voices.

I never had to pound the pavement and really struggle after college.

I did everything I could to stay in college and pay my own way, so I think that if success hadn't come so quickly, I would still be pursuing it.

A few months after graduation I was working in films. It took off pretty quick.
