Personal quotes
"It's cute when you meet young boys
and they're bright red and breathing like they've run
up the stairs, but they're just sitting outside the
door. I've had phone calls in the middle of the night
when I stay at hotels."
"There
were times when I'd go, 'This outfit would look so badass
with stilettos.' You wanted those 4-inch heels, those
wrappy, strappy, show-off-your pedicure shoes, but you
couldn't do it. At the beginning of the scene it would
have been fine because I'm just hanging out with the
dude. But the next thing you know, you're kicking the
dude's rear, so you had to make sure you had the right
shoes on."
"I didn't
realize it [The Mask] was a fairly large film that I
was a part of. Halfway through I was going, 'Is there
any place that my mom and dad can see this film?' and
they're going, 'Cameron, at the theatres.' I had no
idea. Durrrrrrr. I'm blonde. I'm allowed."
"One
thing I realized from Julia [Roberts, "My Best
Friend's Wedding" co-star] - which I knew before,
but was made very clear - is that when you're the star
of the film, the crew looks to you to set the tone of
everyday work. So when you come into work, whatever
it is that you're giving off, that is what the tone
is going to be for the working conditions."
"Your
regrets aren't what you did, but what you didn't do.
So I take every opportunity."
"On
"Being John Malkovich": "it's been said
that in Hollywood there are only 14 different scripts.
Well, this is number 15."
"Acting
allows me to tell a lot of stories, you know start at
the beginning, finish at the end, and tell everything
in between. Modelling is just an image. "
"Most
men are the same. They're only interested in fucking
you and they don't care whether you're happy or sad.
They just want to get on with their business in and
out of bed, and they make you feel that you don't count
except as their sex toy."
"If
you really want to torture me, sit me in a room strapped
to a chair and put Mariah Carey's records on."
"I don't
say that I won't do nudity for other people's benefit.
It has nothing to do with other people's, it's just
what I'm comfortable with."
"I'll
stop smoking, I'll stop shopping and I'll wear a bra.
People think I'm trying to make a fashion statement
because I never wear a bra. It's really that I'm a tomboy
at heart."
"I can't
say this enough, I'm totally comfortable with my body.
I like my body, I don't think it's a bad thing, I think
I have a nice body, I'm happy with it. "
"After
a hard days work, it's nice to go back to the trailer
and see him [her cat] sitting there waiting for me.
"
"An
Egg McMuffin from McDonald's and a beer. You have to
drink more alcohol; you've killed yourself with. Hair
of the dog, that's what it is...... And you have to
get grease. Grease is the only cure for a hangover."
"French
fries. I love them. Some people are chocolate and sweets
people. I love French fries. That and caviar."
"I can
spend hours in a grocery store. I get so excited when
I see food, I go crazy. I spend hours arranging my baskets
so that everything fits in and nothing gets squashed.
I'm really anal about it, actually."
"I'm
a salty, greasy girl. I give every french fry a fair
chance. Could you just lay some lard in my belly?"
"A perfect
evening? Being around people who make me laugh, eating
good food and I guess that's pretty much it. Or doing
something I've never done before. If someone's around
me who can suggest something I've never done before,
then let's do it. Pretty boring, huh?"
"Sometimes
I enjoy talking, but when it's like people are trying
to find something out about me, I don't. If we are just
sitting having a conversation, being real human beings
with one another it is just fantastic. I try to keep
my life out of it, not giving it away. I don't volunteer
a lot of information."
"There
are scripts I've read where I really like the character
but there might be some content that I'm uneasy with.
You have to make the decision whether you want to put
that out there."
