“I loved Jamie Lee Curtis. I think she is brilliant.”

“It's kind of a lost art form, the musical, in a way, so when 'La La Land' came around, I couldn't believe my luck. I just felt like I needed someone to keep on pinching me 'cause not only was it a chance to make a musical but to work with Damien Chazelle, Emma Stone, and Ryan Gosling.”

“When I was a little girl, whenever I would get sick, my mom would go and get stacks and stacks of VHS tapes from Blockbuster.”

“I love power ballads and the earnest lack of irony and emotion that exists in '80s music, along with synth guitars, of course.”
