My mom wanted to be an actress, so she figured her son could be one for her. She said she'd give me $100 to take drama instead of home ec-I wanted to be a cook like my pops.

I've always wanted to be an actress, ever since I was a little girl. I always played the mom and I played my sister as the daughter. I wanted to be an actress on television and movies instead of just around the house.

Know how to do anything - I’m a mom

If you're sitting in the audience, you probably can't see the preparation and work that goes into creating a great scene or a great part, but I can assure you that a good film depends on lot of different things falling perfectly into place.

I started working around eigth grade. I remember doing a Doritos commercial where there were four days in a row of eating them, and I will tell you, I have not eaten many Doritos since.

I am a blank slate - therefore I can create anything I want.
