[on being one of seven children] It's great because when you go home you're the person you were in sixth grade!

[when asked if she ever dated David Letterman] We never dated. We slept together, but we never dated.

I won't wear fur-never, ever. I'm an animal lover. I wouldn't even wear faux fur. I prefer to go the cheap route and not shave my legs.

I love talking to people and finding out their opinion.

If I've learned one thing in life, it's: Stand for something or you'll fall for anything.
