My goal is to just keep playing roles that are different from the roles I've played before. ”

I went to national piano competitions and did that whole circuit. Then I played professionally to support myself when I moved out to LA. ”

I was so happy that it filmed in New York not only because it's an amazing city, but also because a lot of people across the world somehow started to think about New York as a dangerous place to be and envisioned it as some war zone after that happened. ”

When I was a kid, my dream was to be a farmer and marry Charlie Brown. I wanted to rescue him and make him happy. Besides, he was always lusting after the little redhead girl. ”

Redheads get so stereotyped. You're either exotic and wild or totally Victorian. ”

On-screen relationships are the best because you don't have to worry about saying the wrong things. And if the guy's got a girlfriend, or I'm not attracted to him, it's even better. It's just my character kissing his character. ”

I'd never been to a prom, I had never had the whole high school experience. I think I was kind of an anomaly. I don't think they knew where to put me. ”

John Waters has certainly gotten to a place in his life where he doesn't do anything he doesn't want to do. He's always been that way, but at this point, he's greatly respected for it. ”

It occured to me the other day that I've made out with more people on camera than I have in real life! ”
