I am turning into the person I knew I would.

Natural beauty takes at least two hours in front of a mirror.

If people knew how KFC treats its chickens, they’d never eat another drumstick.

I’m never away from my boys for more than three days.

My ideal relaxation is working on upholstry. I spend hours in junk shops buying furniture. I do all the upholstery work myself, and it’s like therapy.

I was never an ambitious girl, or even a self-confident one. I never went in for beauty pageants or wore a stitch of make-up until I went to Los Angeles.

I want Barack Obama for president. I love Obama. I call Palin the helicopter huntress from hell! I want my children to have a wonderful future, and it’s disturbing when I look around. Americans aren’t...

I have to think of moderation, which is not a word that’s in my vocabulary. But I try.

I’m a soccer mom. I’m T-ball, soccer, karate, homework, keeping them on their schedules. I love being the snack mom, when I get to bring the cut oranges. I have one of those coolers with...

In order for a man to feel whole, he needs someone to look up to and someone to look up to him.

I’ve been married a couple of times and survived!

My little circle of friends know how twisted my brain is. I’m constantly reading and people always think, ‘Ah, we didn’t know that about you’, but that’s part of my charm.

Good Viking genes, being vegetarian and having rowdy dogs and kids definitely keep me in shape. Not eating meat gives me the energy I need to keep up with work, family and travel – I’m...

I started running, and I hated it. Of course, everyone hates running for the first mile. If you’re running two miles or twenty miles, it always hurts. Now I live it. I look forward to...

I have two homes in Malibu, a home in Canada that I’m building, and I just love pouring my heart out into this part of my life.

I feel… sexier, I think, with short hair. I feel like an alien!

Even as a kid, I read ‘Jung – Reflections and Individuation In Fairy Tales’; all the inner circle of Jung was a real huge thing for me.

My dad read the Bible ten times, and I want to do it in my lifetime. But it’s definitely tough getting through.

People who wear fur smell like a wet dog if they’re in the rain. And they look fat and gross.

I do a lot for PETA. I do a lot of things I think are really important, I volunteer at school and I’m still amazed I can pay my bills because I feel like I...

Life is like sex. It’s not always good, but its always worth trying.

I’m a good example of someone who can come to Hollywood and keep their feet on the ground with all the rock stars, all the drama that goes with being here. It’s still important to...

I thought, ‘If you’re going to be on TV, and if you’re going to be out and glamorous, the natural look can stay at home.’

I don’t consider myself a feminist, but I feel very empowered as a woman, and I’ve used all my resources widely. I believe in equality, but that’s just naturally happening. I still want a door...

I don’t think I am an actress. I think I’ve created a brand and a business.

I guess ignorance is bliss – when I do interviews people always say, “Aren’t you upset that people make fun of you?” and I’m like, “Are they making fun of me?” I guess I just...
