My problem with being an actor was that I was far too shy to actually do it.

Some of my biggest complaints about acting in television were that I was always wearing a tight dress or pencil skirt, and I was always wearing heels.

I was always shy and had a huge fear of being onstage.

Once, right before a show, I realized I'd forgotten shoes. I didn't want to wear my flip-flops onstage because I could trip. I ended up going barefoot, which actually worked out because it became my 'thing.'

I was kind of scared of failing at acting.

When I was little, I had a feeling that I was going to end up being an actress. I spent a lot of time alone, I was a very shy girl, and I would pretend I was telling someone about this new role that I got.

Acting was never something I wanted to do for the rest of my life, so it was easy to walk away.

It's more enjoyable when I'm disguised in some way; stepping into someone else's shoes is part of the reason why I became an actor.

I got into acting to get my foot in the door for film-making.

I actually started acting because I couldn't dance.
