All that some actresses want is for people to take them seriously instead of caring about how they look.

Anyone who says there isn't pressure to look good as an actor in L.A. is lying.

Let's face facts, this is visual medium, there's a very high premium put on people who are good-looking. But the minute you rely on that you get yourself in trouble. You certainly don't make a career out of that anymore as an actor.

I'm not the sexiest thing in the world, I feel actors who have to 'play' sexy lose all their sex appeal. When they start with the tongue and the heavy lids, it looks so ridiculous. I think you just have to be yourself.

As an actor, you don't have much choice about your appearance. It's a good excuse for looking ridiculous.

If there's ever going to be a challenge for an actor, it's that character who's often evolving - which is not often the case in television.

I think every actor would wish there is some challenge that is left. I would consider to be creatively dead if I were to say that I am satisfied now.

I think that it's important that actors keep getting challenged every day. For every creative person, it's a terrible moment when they say they have done all they want to do.

I know as an actor there is a certain liberation auditioning for a role that has no beauty requirements.

Not all actresses know how to express their looks, I think. For me, it's an on-again, off-again thing. I'm still struggling.
