There's not an awful lot that embarrasses me. I'm the kind of actress that absolutely believes in exposing myself.

You are exposing yourself all the time as an actor. There's the risk of being thought of as bad or boring or unattractive.

If I ask my actors to bare themselves, to reveal themselves as almost naked, I have to bare myself, expose myself as well. That's what creates excitement.

I've learned that to expose yourself, to reveal yourself is a test of your humanness.

I just like watching people who really are not self-conscious, who aren't aware, because I fear that one could become too self-conscious, too artful, as an actor. Sometimes if you look at somebody, you can extrapolate from their exterior what might be happening in their interior. I'm nosy.

I do expose my body, but only because I think people should have something nice to look at.

Very often there's this misapprehension about actors being people that need to display themselves, to reveal themselves in public.

I like to hide behind the characters I play. Despite the public perception, I am a very private person who has a hard time with the fame thing.

One of the things I love about acting is that it reveals a certain something about yourself, but it doesn't reveal your own personal story.

For me, it's always more difficult and slightly exposing to play something that's close to yourself. I always like to try to hide, just because I can't stand the way I look.
