Elizabeth Banks

Sometimes I'm sexy, and sometimes I'm not. ”

I grew up in a very small town, but it happened to be in western Massachusetts, where there were a lot of gay people. I remember my aunt going to a gay wedding when I was 11, and I thought it was the coolest thing. ”

I can hang with the dudes because I love beef and baseball and driving fast and flirting. I understand where men are coming from, and I'm interested in typically male endeavors. But I can also wear the short skirt and cheerlead. ”

The only reason ever to make a sequel is to spend more time with the characters that people love: to tell more of their story. ”

I work out with our trainer, Jocelynne Boschen of Alpha Sport L.A., hike a lot, and eat healthy. I love cooking so prepare a lot of my own food and avoid processed foods. No fast food. No soda. ”

My favorite event each year is the Yankees-Red Sox series. Love seeing passions run hot among the fans, especially when both teams are in the running for the playoffs. ”

I love Prada shoes. I cannot get enough of them. Or Valentino. ”

My acting gives me my self-worth. ”

I love stories about misfits and underdogs. ”

I'm a good role model. I have an amazing marriage, and it will be long lasting. I think I'm a good mom. I could run for office, no problem, because there are no skeletons in my closet. ”
