I've been prepping for my role as Medusa.
I had a really wonderful upbringing. We were a tight family. It was wonderful to grow up with so many siblings. We were all just a year or two apart, and we were always so supportive of each other. I learned everything from my older brother and sister and taught it to my younger sisters.
I once told a journalist that girls call me 'Kitten,' but I couldn't have been more sarcastic, and no matter how many times I've said that it was a joke, it still doesn't go away.
I becan acting when River was doing this TV series and they needed two kids for the show, so they got me and my little sister, Summer, to do it. After that I did some really weird guest spots with orangutans and stuff.
My personal life absolutely goes down the drain when I start working; that's something that I'm incapable of doing.
I love having a master. I have no problem serving my director. That's my job. I want to make them happy.
I love scripts about relationships, and I love to see puppy love evolving into this mature love and communication.
It's an amazing feeling to go into a studio and really be alone.
I wouldn't feel satisfied being on set every day doing a romantic comedy - I'd be bored to death.
I don't think one should be comfortable standing on a stage with people applauding and laughing at every stupid thing you say.
With public figures involved in a relationship it seems that there is a machine behind their love so oftentimes.
The footage that you're about to watch of China's dog-leather trade is one of the worst things I've ever seen.
In most films - especially in regards to the protagonist - really from the get-go they set up some scenario that endears that character to the audience. Or imbues him with some nobility or heroism or something.
I didn't know much about him, and I wasn't a big country music fan. I listened to the Beatles and David Bowie, so I didn't know a lot about him.
The expectation is this low, gravelly voice for John, but I went through his early recordings and there were songs in there where the voice was so different, I wasn't even sure if it was him singing, ... So it was interesting to me that we would see him develop the Man in Black sound. I thought it was really important that his voice change as his persona slowly solidified. The music was really the doorway into the character.
I've always loved hip-hop, since I was a kid, that's the music that I loved. I think everyone of our generation kind of fantasized about hip-hop in some ways.
I don't know a single person in life that doesn't have conflict. I don't really enjoy acting enough to not want to experience something that feels like it really affects things. It's like, if you were a surfer, would you want to surf where there was like two-foot waves, or would you want to surf on like ten-foot waves. To me, the more kind of dramatic stories are more exciting for me, to play with.
I guess my experience with some stuff is kind of abstract.
I would try and sing along with bands that I like but it sounded so atrocious that I couldn't.
Together, we can make a U.S. Department of Peace into a reality, and leave a gift of peace for generations to come.
Getting into the character is difficult and letting go of your life and the things that kind of define you, whatever it is in life that's your daily routine because you sort of find yourself in this other life and that's difficult and the other end is difficult.
Well, I think that you know, I threatened myself with quitting after every movie. But I think everybody does that, right?
I love doing the music. I love programming beats and kind of working on the music as much, if not more, than the actual rapping.
I'm very thankful for the people that I've had the opportunity to work with. I have a good life. It's been amazing. I'm not complaining. It's not like acting has ruined me so I have to leave. It's not that. I'm just done with it.
I loved hip-hop. The first stuff I heard was Public Enemy, and I couldn't believe it. It was amazing, and I've always loved hip-hop.
