It doesn't matter if they're in front of the camera or behind the camera. I know women who are producers who are surviving on nothing but juice and almonds.

If being an attractive woman got you attention for directing, then the entire best director category would be comprised of models. To me, that is just the most ludicrous connection that you could make.

I think I might be one of the only people in America, or at least the only person I know, who saw both 'The Dark Knight' and 'Mamma Mia!' on their shared opening weekend.

In my opinion, the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person will still think the sun shines out your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with.

If this whole writing thing doesn't work out, I'll be getting right back on the pole.

There's this double standard that exists and it really frustrates me. If a woman chooses to work, people say, Oh it's so sad that you're not at home with your children. But no one ever says that to a man because it's assumed that the man is going to be the provider.

Speaking of Twitter, I don't even know if I composed a blog entry in 2009, as I was too busy parceling my every thought into cute 140-character sound bites. I used to only worry about being pithy for a living now some of my best lines are wasted on a free app!

These days, the Rolling Stones still have an edge, but that fangs-out ferocity has mellowed considerably.

When I was a kid, I attended a small Catholic school in a south suburb of Chicago.

Image
This is for the writers. I want to thank all the writers. I especially want to thank my fellow nominees because I worship you guys and I'm learning from you every day.

Image
I really just love to open a blank document and spew, whereas with a screenplay I have to be more judicious.
Diablo Cody
Image
I grew up in the Midwest you don't know any screenwriters. It didn't seem like a realistic career possibility.
Diablo Cody
Image
It's actually much harder to develop a TV show than I had anticipated.

There's probably no experience more alienating than fame, other than a terminal illness, where you actually find yourself in a situation that nobody around you can relate to.

Image
I usually try not to think about actors while writing, because the odds of those stars aligning and you getting those specific people are so rare.

The fact is, when I wrote 'Juno' - and I think this is part of its charm and appeal - I didn't know how to write a movie. And I also had no idea it was going to get made!

Los Angeles is often described as the nadir of vapidity, a smog-choked space cradle.

Above the stage was a glass-floored second stage, which allowed customers to look up and watch another girl dancing overhead. This multidimensional display of poontang reminded me of the 3-D chessboard on Star Trek, which in turn reminded me that I was a huge nerd.

You definitely meet a lot of extremely powerful, successful, wealthy people in Hollywood who are extremely miserable.
