I try to keep my head on straight and take nothing for granted.

I don't really like to go out to clubs or anything. It's just not my style. I'd much rather go to a dive bar or a local place. I just don't love feeling awful, having to tell people, "Hi, yeah, I was in Todo Mundo em Pânico (2000). Do you mind if we come in?". I mean, it's so awkward.

I never imagined being able to make money from acting - and now I can.

They've [the Scary Movie series] given me a career but they've also sort of boxed me in. What really surprised me when I first moved here is that the industry thought of actors as either comedic or dramatic. And I'm still confused. I understand that maybe some people are better at one or the other, but I can't understand why it's so divided. I've been able to chip away at that a bit; I think it gets easier as my body of work expands.

Blythe Danner is somebody whose career I admire. She's a great actress and does good work, but also has a life of her own. I love my job but, at the end of the day, I want to come home and watch a movie and drink a bottle of wine with my husband.

[on doing another Todo Mundo em Pânico (2000) sequel] After Todo Mundo em Pânico 3 (2003), I was like "No I'm done," but then I had so much fun making [Todo Mundo em Pânico 4 (2006)] that I think that I would. I would definitely be open to doing it.

I was never the class clown or anything like that. When I was growing up and doing theatre in Seattle, I was always doing very dramatic work. Now I can't get a dramatic role to save my life!

[on losing herself in her relationships]I made that mistake, I think, a little bit, like 'I'm checking my relationship off the list and if that would be the final piece of advice I could give you, that would be know your worth, know your independence.

Life is too short to be in relationships where you feel this isn't fully right or somebody doesn't have your back, or somebody doesn't fully value you. Don't be afraid to feel your independence if things aren't right.
