Period Costume Films Are Fun To Discover, But They're Not Relatable. It's More, 'wow, That's Cool - Did It Really Look Like That Back Then?' Whereas With A Comedy, You're Like, 'yeah, That's Me, That's My Friends.' No Matter What, I Want People To Relate.

I Really Put My Heart And Soul Into Everything And I Don't Want A Project That Doesn't Feel Real To Me Or I Don't Get Invested In. In Order To Drive A Show For Eight Or 10 Years Or Whatever The Target For Doing A Show Is, It Really Has To Be A Part Of You. Because Then I Can Come Up With Stories For Seasons And Seasons On End. I Wish I Had The Ability To Just Like The Idea And Get People In And Drive It That Way Through Their Enthusiasm. For Me, It Has To Be A Little More Of A Personal Thing, Even If It's Not A Completely Personal Story.

If You're Not Connected Emotionally To A Story, Then You're Dead. You're Really Just Opening The Door For People To Lose Interest And Their Minds To Wander, For Them To Start Picking It Apart.

I'm From Mt. Clemens, Michigan. It's Right Outside Detroit. The Suburbs. I Was Always Very Heavily Involved In Theater Back Then. I Was Always In Drama Club Or Forensics. Anything That You Could Do That Had Some Performing, I Was Doing It.

Internationally And In Foreign Markets, Movies Starring Women Don't Make As Much Money As Movies Starring Men. And Then You Can Blame Filmmakers, Especially In Comedy, Which Is My Bread And Butter, Because It's Become A Bit Of A Boys' Club Over The Years. With The Boys In Charge You Get These Takes On Women Which Are Either The Girlfriend Or The Mean Wife Or The Girl Who Appears In A Romantic Comedy. You're Just Getting Either Men's Fantasies About Women Or What They Think Is The Reality About Women Instead Of Men Just Having A Healthy Attitude About Women.
