I’m a big pasta fan. I’m a big Italian food fan. Anything Italian – I love cheese, mozzarella. Mozzarella is my favorite, so I have to say anything Italian, I’ll take it.

I love a good Slash guitar riff. It’s sexy!

I like when you watch a film and you feel like you’re a part of somebody’s life for an hour and a half.

I’m such a bad shopper for myself. I love fashion and all that kind of stuff, but that’s sort of the last thing I want to do when I’m done with a film is go...

Every time I’m in Canada I feel more Swedish, and every time I’m in Sweden I feel more Canadian. I belong in both places and I love them both equally. It’s funny because the Swedes...

I still get excited by working with big names. You have that initial moment of, ‘Oh my goodness, I’m going to work with Tom Cruise!’

I love the Coen brothers. They’re so brilliant, and they always surprise you in one way or another. ‘A Serious Man’ was awesome. I like stuff like that, that kind of throws you for a...

I love seeing when actors go from one genre to the next because I feel like most of them can pull it off.

Nutella. I dig my spoon in and eat it straight out of the jar. I can easily go through one a week.

I’ve always felt so different from how I look. I meet so many pretty girls who are like, ‘Here I am! Don’t you want me because I look good?’ That concept is so weird to...

Modeling was never anything that was a career choice. I did catalog work in Toronto to make money so that I could go to school.

A lot of big studio films, which are fun and great, tend to have a formula, and you’ve seen it before, and it’s a new version of it.

Women have a way of contorting things sometimes. We all have our moods, ups and downs. Or if the guy doesn’t say anything when you walk out with a new top and the guy has...

I never was shy, but as far as telling jokes, I’m the worst. I like physical comedy; it’s where I feel comfortable.

You’ve got to allow yourself the things you enjoy or you’ll just be miserable.

Anytime you get to work with an actor who is beyond you in experience and talent, I feel like they make you a better actor. You really bring up your game.

Who doesn’t love a funny girl who can look sexy at the same time?

I don’t have a problem with being a woman. Women’s bodies are so beautiful.

I wouldn’t have made it past the first round of American Idol auditions. It was months before our first song was recorded. The guys were like, ‘Just seeng!’ And I was like, ‘I don’t know...

I’d love to do all types of film, not just comedy, although I love comedy.

How can you not love a man banging on the drums? He knows how to keep a rhythm.

I believe in eating as nutritiously as I can all the time… My mother raised me on fresh – rather than processed – foods, and that’s how I eat on a regular basis.

We all in real life put on these masks – we don’t swear when we’re around certain people… When we come home, when you’re on your own I’m sure you’re really different than when you’re...

I think Cate Blanchett is fabulous – she just shines in everything she does – and I’m a big Susan Sarandon fan.

Turns out, I couldn’t catch them – or even get close to them. I realized that sharks are amazing, beautiful animals who have absolutely no interest in checking me out.

I’m gluten intolerant, so that automatically cuts carbs from my diet.

My only requirement for life is that I don’t get stuck in a rut.

I do love doing films; I love going out and creating different characters for each film, and not having to be stuck with one role for many, many years. It’s a creative liberty that I...

I was a groupie for a year and followed a band. I dated the drummer of the band.

I think it’s critical in any character you play that it really is about reacting instead of acting. You can always tell when a person is acting.

I’m the type of person who doesn’t want to sit alone in a restaurant or bar.

Those are my favorite kind of parts to do, just being a goofball and seeing how far you can go with something until you’re just way out of line.

It’s a great beauty tip, if you ever want to look five years younger, to shave off your eyebrows. It’s amazing what it does. It really shaves off the years.

I don’t really have an issue with showing certain parts of my body. I’d rather not, but it’s not a big deal. Growing up in Sweden, it’s natural over there.

People do think you’re more intelligent if you have dark hair. But my husband definitely prefers me as a blonde.

I think we can leave mullets back in the ’80s. I’m really not a big fan of them.

I am extremely lucky that I have a husband who is so supportive. He’s not in the slightest bit jealous or worried about the things I do in certain scenes.

Unfortunately, I like to feel a little stubble when I kiss. Women are too soft.

I loved ‘Pan’s Labyrinth.’ It transported me into another world. I like fantasy worlds; I love ‘Lord of the Rings’ as well, for that reason, because you really get to get out of reality and...

I love when you get to work with people you know because there’s so much more trust, and you’re much more willing to be vulnerable in a scene with someone you trust.

In ’87, I was about 9 years old, and so at that point I was wearing, like, fluorescent green T-shirts and acid-wash jeans and leg warmers, and my hair was in a ponytail with a...

Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd are really amazing, lovely people and really great comedic actors.

I can’t walk by chocolate without eating it.

When you live in L.A., it is easy to stay fit, as the weather is amazing.

I meet so many pretty girls who are like, ‘Here I am! Don’t you want me because I look good?’ That concept is so weird to me. I want to know, ‘What else do you...

I’m a tooth person… I like quirky teeth. My husband has little teeth with spaces in between them. He hates them and I love them. I like people with buckteeth, and I like it when...

As a girl I wanted the Cyndi Lauper hairstyle, with the shaved side of the head, or the Sharon Stone perm from ‘Total Recall.’

There isn’t a woman alive who doesn’t have problems with her body. Including me!

I have this weird obsession with kids and old people falling. Like, funny falls. It is awful, but it’s the thing that makes me laugh the most.

I have been a goof my whole life. I wasn’t really the popular girl in school and didn’t have any boyfriends in high school because I was a nerd. I was a geek.
