More quotes by Amy Adams
I watched The Muppet Movie obsessively. I can still pretty much say a lot of the lines and do a pretty mean Fozzie Bear.
Amy Adams
The Muppets have such a great tradition of bringing together all of genres of actors and all ages of actors.
Amy Adams
I do love shoes that make my legs longer. I have the upper body of someone who's 5ft 8in, so high heels help me even out the discrepancy.
Amy Adams
Perfect isn't normal, nor is it interesting. I have no features without makeup. I am pale. I have blond lashes. You could just paint my face - it's like a blank canvas. It can be great for what I do.
Amy Adams
I was blonde most of my life and I had to dye my hair for a role. I couldn’t believe the difference when I went red. I just felt ‘wow, I’m home’. It’s great. You do something stupid when you’re blonde and you’re dumb. Do something stupid when you’re red and you’re a character.
Amy Adams
That's always been my philosophy: I try to just be as straightforward as possible, and then I don't really have to question what I said or regret anything.
Amy Adams
I have worked with some of the meanest people in the world. You can't do anything to intimidate me.
Amy Adams
A man who's powerful and strong yet is able to show tenderness and vulnerability, that's really sexy.
Amy Adams
If I had a project that I had auditioned for and I was getting close to getting it, I didn't want to tell anybody because I thought then I wouldn't get it, but in reality that really had no bearing on whether or not I got a part.
Amy Adams
I like Cinderella, I really do. She has a good work ethic. I appreciate a good, hard-working gal. And she likes shoes. The fairy tale is all about the shoe at the end, and I'm a big shoe girl.
Amy Adams
Working with green screen, you really rely on the director in a way that you don't on different types of films.
Amy Adams
How I work is I work from of very character-driven place. And I trust the writers.
Amy Adams
I'd love to be a diva. But I'd then have to send so many apology notes for my abhorrent behaviour.
Amy Adams
I was a pretty scrappy, tough kid I got in all sorts of fights at school. I defended myself - boys didn't mess with me. But as one of seven children, you have to fight for everything anyway.
Amy Adams
I think the kick to doing comedy is just to get in a film with really funny people and let them do their jobs. I find that in most comedies, I'm not the funny one, which works out great.
Amy Adams
I saw some musicals at dinner theaters where I grew up. But I didn’t go to a big theater to see one until probably after I graduated from high school when I took myself to see Tommy when it was on tour. I absolutely loved it.
Amy Adams
Being pregnant finally helped me understand what my true relationship was with my body - meaning that it wasn't put on this earth to look good in a swimsuit. I was like, 'Look, I can carry a baby! I'm gaining weight right, everything's going well.' And I've had that relationship ever since.
Amy Adams
I probably never would have been hired on Broadway had I not moved out to LA and pursued acting and film, which is sad really.
Amy Adams
I always saw myself as more of a watcher, although I suppose my siblings might have a different viewpoint on it.
Amy Adams
I had an existential crisis at the Oscars, sitting next to Sean Penn and Meryl Streep, and being like, 'What am I doing here? I don't belong here'. I felt like it could all be taken away.
Amy Adams
