I'm not afraid to play ugly - look at 'Adaptation.' I looked like a turd that a cat had coughed up.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
But I always like to play ugly people who think they're pretty.
As for my looks, if I didn't look the way I do, I would probably be one of those many faces doing a romcom, which I detest. The way I look has somewhere defined the characters I played. My weakness has become my strength.
I was so ugly my mother used to feed me with a sling shot.
I don't have the fear of my looks changing.
I never saw an ugly thing in my life: for let the form of an object be what it may, - light, shade, and perspective will always make it beautiful.
I looked like an alien, and in front of the most beautiful people on TV.
I've never been obsessed by how I looked. In fact, I would rather have looked more ordinary so I could play more parts more truthfully.
There is no cure for ugly, but you can make yourself into a human optical illusion.
On the one hand, I always get the young ingenue, pretty parts. But I don't think of myself that way because I was an ugly duckling when I was growing up. I have to be reminded when I play a part sometimes that I'm playing the pretty girl.
With proper acting, I don't know what I would play - I got sent a script for a play, and it said in the notes that my proposed character was 'hideously fat and ugly'. That made my day. I mean, I do know I am no oil painting.
