The hardest thing in my industry is longevity, getting your next job. It's hard to get the first job, but it's so much harder to get the sixth or seventh as a woman.

You know, right now, they say - I don't know who says this, but somebody told me - there's three male roles to every female role. And I guess I'd work on evening that up. Making great roles for women. It's just such a huge challenge

I grew out my armpit hair for the summer. It turns out my natural hair colour isn't blonde.

I did come to realize that getting your first job is hard, but it's not nearly as hard as getting your seventh job. That is hard. That's when you really have to prove it to people.

My mom actually didn't let me read any women's magazines growing up. She also didn't let me see Pretty Woman. She thought that I was going to want to be a hooker. So, instead, I just got cast in Scary Movie.

I used to feel this need to prove to people that I can do something dramatic. But, the truth is that I don't know if I can. I don't think I have it in my skill set. It would be great, but I do love making comedies. It's been so much fun for me, and I hope that I can continue to do it.

My comedy does not come from a place of deep cynicism, and I tend to play characters who are naive in some way.

You have to be willing to accept the idea that people may think you're stupid.

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!

Instead of the mahi mahi, may I just get the one mahi because I’m not that hungry.

In every career, you are balancing or negotiating tricky waters. But, I think that's been something nice that comedy has been able to give me a little bit more. I have the ability to laugh at myself and hopefully not take all of this whole world too seriously.

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.

I really love comedy and weirdly enough, I love how my journey has ended up. I get to laugh all day long.

I never really thought I wanted to become a movie star.

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.
