On makeup: “Whether I’m wearing lots of makeup or no makeup, I’m always the same person inside.”
On her fans: “I think what has been lovely about my relationship with the public is that they expect something unexpected from me.”
On her body image: “I’m very free-spirited,” she says. “Even when I was a kid, I used to run around naked with the babysitter, driving her crazy.” She attributes her body confidence to dancing, and “I do yoga, I do Bikram and I run, and I eat really healthy. You know, my work sort of feeds me. I keep in shape by working hard.”
On spending time on her own, due to her travel schedule: “When you’re alone as much as I am,” she observes, “you become accustomed to your solitude and embrace it.”
On taking up surfing, which she tried for the first time on a two-day vacation to Mexico in August: “I fell off a lot in the beginning,” she says, “but one of the surfers said to me, ‘Now that you can stand up, just look into the future and enjoy the ride.’ I thought that was an interesting metaphor about life.”
