I want to win an Oscar. I want to be known for more than, like, going out. For being the 'party girl'. I hate that. I bust my ass when I'm filming and when I have time off, yeah, I like to go out and dance.

Going to the Oscars is always the most sensory overload and a huge amount of fun.

I love the Oscars. All sorts of tacky people win. And watching everyone run up and down those aisles is just adorable.

Oscar night is a ridiculous night where you go to these parties and you see everyone that you've ever wanted to work with and admire.

I am always a little surprised when anyone sees anything I make, so being nominated for the Oscar is beyond amazing - what a tremendous honor.

The Oscars are really nice, but the best part is that I had the opportunity to do that kind of work.

I have a Tony Award now. It hasn't changed too much in the theater world, but it gives me entree for film stuff and TV stuff, where people will see me more easily now because they know me.

I go for a couple of parties; you won't find me at every film party and never at award ceremonies. I tried attending for the first three to four years, and I've performed at award shows. I sat in them, and I've also exited pretty fast from them. It's just not my place. I'd rather get their adulation in a cinema hall.

What surprised me about the Oscars was how familiar it was - because you're in the room with all these people that have inspired you from your childhood to adulthood in the film industry. It feels like you've known them all of your life.

The Academy and the Oscars have been very gracious to me.
