I just like being a social experiment sometimes. I really should not be allowed in public. But I just go out into the public just to see people's reaction. The thing is, I can do anything I want, virtually, within reason, just to see people's reaction.

Making people uncomfortable is one of my hobbies.

You've got to honor your relationship with your audience - that they sit down because they want to be entertained. And that doesn't mean you can't provoke them and antagonize them and challenge them in the course of the entertainment as long as you keep the entertainment part of the equation alive.

As a filmmaker and an actor, my job is to react towards people, but I want a reaction from them.

The only way I could get comfortable around people was to make them laugh. I was an obedient girl, and humor was my one form of rebellion. I used comedy to deflect. Like, 'Hey, check out my zit!' - you know, making fun of yourself before someone else has a chance to.

If you're going to do something that's going to cause offence to people, you're always going to get a reaction.

Being in front of all these people staring at you and it helps you to dig down and become more emotional and get lost in it as you're feeding on people's energy.

In order to maintain that fire for acting and capture its essence, you can't let yourself be concerned with what people have to say about you. You just can't.

As long as I can make an audience feel something, I don't care whether it's a good thing or bad thing, just to feel something is important to me.
