SNEAK PEAK on July/August issue:
On being comfortable in her own skin:
“I’ve been every size in the world. Parts of my twenties, I was in great shape, but I didn’t appreciate it. If I was a 6 or an 8, I thought, why aren’t I a 2 or a 4?”
Her motherly outlook:
“I bought into it—I should be taller, thinner, have better hair. But I think that’s part of being young. Now, especially with kids, you lose any sense of time or energy to worry about all the little stuff.”
WACKY actress roles:
“The goal is always that the characters are grounded. I like to play an eccentric version of people, but I never like to be wacky, wacky, look how crazy I am.”
Sandra Bullock as her PARTNER IN CRIME:
“I did not want to play two dingbats who suck at their jobs. I’d rather watch a character be good at something and be challenged—there’s more to play in that.”
Being fabulous in LA:
“You talk to somebody in a line in L.A., and it’s like you’ve asked them to remove their pants.”
