"I feel I can do anything - any kind of role. I'm fearless." "I work really hard. I'll just get better as I go along because I'm open to getting better. If you have the goods, there's nothing to be afraid of. If somebody doesn't have the goods, they're insecure. I don't have that problem. I'm not the best actress that ever lived, but I know I'm pretty good."

"God, people talk about my butt all the time. It's because it's big. It's not huge and disgusting or anything, but when I was younger I had a bit of a complex about it, because it is definitely big. So in my earlier interviews I'd bring it up - perhaps as some kind of defense. And in every picture taken of me now at movie premieres, they always photo me from behind, looking over my shoulder. But it's fine. I don't care."

"Third grade. A kid called Charles who had blue eyes and black hair. He was so cute. I never kissed him because I was only ten years old. He'd come over to my house every day and my mom would give us sandwiches and milk. I dreamt of marrying him. I saw him years later when he'd grown up, and let's put it this way - he peaked early."

"I think the best flirts are people who are not too obvious. When you're overly flirty, that's off-putting. You've just got to be friendly. If I like a guy, then I'll be very friendly with him. I'll talk to him and laugh a lot, look in his eyes a second longer than I should. You know - the kind of things that let a guy know that you're interested in him. And I'm very touchy-feely with people I know, so you can't tell that I like someone just because I touch him a lot. But I've never gone up to a complete stranger and asked him out on a date. Chasing after guys just isn't my style."

"I'm a giver, almost to a fault. I like a lot of love and affection. I don't need someone to buy me material things. I can buy them for myself. It's nice to get presents, but it's not a sign of love. Love to me is someone telling me: (I want to be with you for the rest of my life, and if you needed me to I'd jump out of a plane for you.)"

She sees herself as a one-man woman ("what really turns me on is a comfortable sensuality with someone and total security")

"A man's mouth area is very important to me. Like if they don't have a nice smile and nice lips and nice teeth, then that really disgusts me. I hate unhygenic mouths. And I love nice eyes. And I like a nice toned body. He doesn't have to be all cut up, and he doesn't have to be huge, but he does have to be in shape. I like somebody who takes care of himself. But more than anything I don't like bad teeth."

"I hate the male bonding thing. Women don't need that constant bonding. Sure, it's nice to hang out with our friends, but we'd much rather be with our boyfriends. Men have some disgusting habits, as well - like scratching themselves all the time. And it's weird how guys think that passing gas is the funniest thing in the world. They love to do that kind of thing in front of girls and laugh about it. It's disgusting, and I don't need it in my life."

"I was 13 when a truck carrying compressed gas cylinders hit my mom's car. The only thing that saved my life was the fact that I was bending down tying my shoes in the front seat, because his headlight flew through the windscreen and ended up in the back of the car. It would have smashed my face in. I don't even remember exactly how my nose got fractured, but that's why it looks like it does. People always tell me I look like I was hit with a hammer, but I like my nose. In profile it's good, but if you look straight at me or touch it, you can see the flatness."

"I'm a very smell-orientated person. I can be attracted to a man almost by the way he smells. Everybody has their own smell. I love the smell of a man, when you're holding someone in bed, just the smell of the back of their neck - you just kinda put your nose in there and there might be just a little trace of Cologne left. I love that."

"I really believe in fidelity. That's not to say I don't understand that you might be in love with somebody but find someone else attractive. It can happen to anyone, no matter how faithful you are. I think it's difficult to pinpoint exactly when someone is being physically unfaithful. Getting a blow-job or having intercourse or kissing - when are you actually crossing the line? To me, when you're sharing your life with with someone and then you start having feelings for someone else, then that's infidelity. I'm faithful."
