Blake Lively

“On average, I order about three meals for myself in one sitting.”

“I've never gone on a date... If I've ever had a man in my life, it's because I know him well, and he really means something to me.”

“I kind of feel like I grew up at Disneyland.”

“When I moved to New York, I started switching fragrances. Between different seasons I would change fragrance, or if I was going out for a big fancy night versus going out in the daytime. But I also found that I was changing and growing so much.”

“I had a lot of friends in high school, but I was never the wild party girl. Never have been, never plan to be!”

“Each day, I choose my age.”

“What do you do with your best friend? You do nothing.”

“I came from a big family... a big family of Southerners.”

“People think I'm goofy. I don't have that Angelina Jolie air to me. I wish that I did, and that's an insecurity of mine.”

“I think I'm very much an entrepreneur, but I know I have the ability to start a company in a lot of ways than other people who are more qualified because I have this existing brand as an actress.”

“If I could pass along anything that my mother or my sisters taught me, I feel like my kids would be very well off.”

“My dad actually makes the best cookies. My mum is great baker, too, but doesn't share them - it's tantalising! Luckily for me though, my dad shares his!”

“I feel a lot. I get really bad stomachaches all the time. So I went to a doctor, and he said, 'You're a feeler.' I take on people's pain a little too much.”

“If I wasn't an actress, I'd be a chef. I'd love to open a restaurant.”

“To be around me, you must love food, or I'm the most obnoxious person you've ever met.”

“I can't believe we're being paid to live in New York.”

“I always want to wear clothes that my children will one day look back on and say, 'Oh, you looked amazing - why didn't you keep that?' Not, 'Oh my God - I can't believe you wore that.'”

“My mom taught me this really great beauty tip. She used to put oil or mayonnaise on the bottom half of her hair before she would shower.”

“I don't know; I don't really look at pictures of me when I'm in public.”

“After my first year on 'Gossip Girl,' everybody said, 'You've got to do a big commercial movie, ride this wave.'”
