More quotes by Melissa McCarthy
Comedy to me is all about the bumps and bruises and weird tics.
Melissa McCarthy
You just have to say, 'It’s pretty damn good. I am right here at the moment and I’m OK with it. I've got other things to think about.'
Melissa McCarthy
I don't associate with people who blame the world for their problems. You are your problem. You are also your solution.
Melissa McCarthy
I felt really bad for someone who is swimming in so much hate. I just thought, that's someone who's in a really bad spot, and I am in such a happy spot. I laugh my head off every day with my husband and my kids who are mooning me and singing me songs.
Melissa McCarthy
As a teenager I went all Goth, but I wasn't mopey enough. I would pretend to be, but I'd end up making people laugh.
Melissa McCarthy
I think when you can actually do what you love to do, if it's a little play somewhere, if it's a photo, if it's anything- if you can somehow do what you want and do a really good job at it, I think that's pretty successful.
Melissa McCarthy
There’s a greatness in not caring what people think
Melissa McCarthy
I don't like to do anything that's mean spirited just because I don't find it funny. I'd rather be the jackass than makes fun of somebody else. It just seems too cheap and easy.
Melissa McCarthy
I do think comedy needs to be a living thing, but I think without a great script and fully realized characters, you cannot keep it living. Otherwise it just becomes long and rambling indulgent.
Melissa McCarthy
I am not a princess, I don't want to be referred to as a princess - I find that super creepy.
Melissa McCarthy
In terms of threshold, as long as it's based in reality, you can go pretty far, as long as you buy that it's really happening.
Melissa McCarthy
I'm always tinkering with something - suddenly I'll think I can work with wood, but then I'll realize I can't, so I go back to sewing.
Melissa McCarthy
Part of being young is you thinking that gaining 6 lbs. Is the end of the world
Melissa McCarthy
It's like I'm managing to achieve all this success in spite of my affliction ... Would you ever put that in the headline for a male star?
Melissa McCarthy
Sometimes I wish I were just magically a size 6 and I never had to give it a single thought.
Melissa McCarthy
I watch HGTV like a maniac, and when it's bad, it's like some crazy college guy watching a football game.
Melissa McCarthy
I've never felt like I needed to change. I've always thought, 'If you want somebody different, pick somebody else.'
Melissa McCarthy
I'm a bit obsessed with women that are so incredibly solid in their shoes that they don't care what other people think of them. I just think there's something so interesting about that kind of confidence.
Melissa McCarthy
Once you start writing a character visually, you're in trouble.
Melissa McCarthy
I want to be healthy.
