I lived in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, until eighth grade, and then my high-school years were in Rochester, New York.
From Kristen Wiig
I enjoy being characters rather than myself.
I think it's an interesting thing to watch when a person is trying to keep it together and then ultimately when they do lose it a little bit.
I like to write and draw and paint, and my mom's an artist, so I think I get caught up in thinking, 'I'm afraid it's gonna be bad,' and it's hard for me to start sometimes.
I roller skated when I was younger, but when you're on a track that's slanted and you're with other people all skating in a pack, it's a whole different sport.
People sometimes get a little extra criticism when they try something that they don't normally do, but I think that's just a natural thing for artists. It's like, 'Okay, I did that, and now I want to try this.'
Why can't there be a lot of great women who are doing great things?
When you're on your deathbed, you probably aren't counting the movies you've made.
I don't rehearse a lot. I try to keep it organic. Even in movies, the less I rehearse, the better I am.
I am shyer than most people think.
