“I like when a guy makes me feel like a woman and a little girl at the same time.”
“I'm not perfect, I do drink. I do smoke. Carson Daly can't go out and get messed up, he can't smoke in front of kids - he's the face of MTV, and he has to be good. But me? I can.”
“I would love to work with Anthony Hopkins; I would love to work with Meryl Streep; I would love to work with DeNiro; I would love to work with Johnny Depp; I'd love to work with Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Gwyneth Paltrow... I think she's amazing.”
“Why is partying and having a good time bad?”
“I admire a lot of actors; I think a lot of them have so much talent.”
“אם יש לי משקה ביד זה לא אומר שאני אלכוהוליסטית. אם אני רוצה כוס יין אז אני אשתה כוס יין. כל מה שאני עושה מבקרים אותי עליו, זה הלקח שלמדתי.”
“אני לא מהשחקניות האלה שאחרי שהן עושות תפקיד אחד עם סצנת עירום, הן נשבעות יותר לא לעשות זאת. זה מטופש. אני בפירוש מבטיחה להצטלם שוב בעירום, אם זה ייראה הגיוני מבחינת הדמות והתסריט. אני לא הולכת להוריד חולצה בכל הזדמנות, אבל אם זה מתאים – אז למה לא?”
“אני אוהבת ראש קליל, אז קומדיות נעורים מתאימות לי, אבל אשמח אם הסרט שלי יהיה דרמה. אני צריכה למצוא תסריט מתאים, שבעקבותיו יתייחסו אליי בהוליווד כמו לשחקנית ראשית שמחזיקה על כתפיה סרט ראוי.”
“I love horror movies. I mean, who doesn't like a good horror movie every once in a while? It's fun to get scared.”
“Once you get to know me, you would know in a second that I am an East Coast girl. You can tell because I'm not flaky, and I will tell you how it is. I also walk faster than they walk in L.A.”
“People think I am America's party girl, which is just stupid. I have done 24 movies and I am creating my own TV show.”
“I can make a scene that's not supposed to be sexy, very sexy. It's a power you're born with. It's not a physical thing, it comes from inside. It's all in the eyes.”
“I just started making Bloody Marys. I always thought they looked gross, then I tasted one. There's an art to it, from the Tabasco to the Worcestershire.”
“I like a guy who uses his hips when he's dancing.”
“It would be the ultimate dream for me to win an Academy Award, be in love and have kids. Then I would say, 'Life is great! I have done everything I wanted.'”
“I just couldn't live without dogs.”
“I have a lot of friends who are infected with HIV, and you wanna protect them... To increase the awareness of it and to find a cure for it, the human lives we would save would be a really awesome thing. You just have to involve yourself as much as you can.”
“The next step in my life is hopefully meeting a nice guy and getting married.”
“I'm more of a jeans and T-shirt kind of girl.”
“I've done a lot of serious roles, but they're, like, independent, so it's harder for them to come out. The big ones have been comedies, but I would love to get a big drama to let people see the other side of me, that I am a serious actress.”
