I like playing dark, offbeat, quirky characters.

I'm a little quirky, a little offbeat, and I'm certainly not a classic beauty.

I'm still getting used to changing earrings - It still feels really weird to be pushing bits of metal through holes in my earlobes that weren't there a few weeks back, and actually seeing and feeling the holes in my lobes is still a bit freaky.

Sometimes men are scared of me. You become a kind of an icon on television, and people are a little bit unsure, careful. It's funny.

It kind of irritates me that I'm seen as this pretty face. People also say I'm too thin. The truth is pretty people aren't as accepted as other people. It comes with all these stigmas.

There comes a time when a man must rise above shock, the loss of lung, and grape-tossing women to come up with a life-saving plan. Now is that time.
