I went on an audition. I walked in the room, and it was Leslie Mann with Judd Apatow. It was intimidating.

I'd auditioned for the National Youth Theatre and I didn't get a place and it was terrifying.

I met my agent through a casting director here in Wilmington after I auditioned for a Disney movie.

I never went on auditions because I would be terrible at it, so I just did stand-up.

I auditioned for Robert Redford once and I was so starstruck I couldn't even speak. I had a mic wire at a screen test clipped to me and then I got kind of nervous and I paced in a circle and then took a step and tripped and fell on my face. You just have to forgive yourself and keep going on.

I was lucky - the first eight productions I auditioned for, I got cast.

There have been, like, three auditions in my life where I feel like I'm in a 'Saturday Night Live' skit.

There've been times where, like when I auditioned for 'Akeelah,' I think in the first audition I was a little bit afraid because it was, you know, I had seen girls in there that I had seen on TV before, and I was like, 'Man, I might as well just walk out of here now because I'm just a newcomer,' and this and that.
