[betty In Two Evil Eyes]was

I Didn't Tell Anybody [had Got A Role At As Good As It Gets], Because I Was Just Going, "well, That Was The Strangest Audition..." And I Just Thought, "there's No Way He Gave Me The Job On The Spot When There Was A Room Full Of Other Girls Waiting To Audition For It." But Then I Didn't Hear Anything For A Couple Of Days, So I Finally Called My Agents, And They're, Like, "oh, Yeah, Congratulations! We Know Jim [l.brooks] Told You In The Room That You Got It."

It's Really Interesting - I Wanted To Become An Actress When I Was Young Because I Wanted To Do Romantic Comedy. And I Did A Lot Of Comedies Very Early On, But Then My Career Took Kind Of A Left Turn With Joss Whedon, And I Discovered That Doing Genre Work Is Actually More Interesting As An Actor, Because The Given Circumstances Are More Extreme. And It Really Is Creatively More Challenging.

I'd Been Doing Comedy Up That Point And Hadn't Really Done A Lot Of Drama, And Then All Of A Sudden He Casts Me As A 400-year-old Vampire From Hell. It Was, Like, "what?!"

I'd Always Thought That Acting Was, Like, You Had To Work Really Hard, You Had To Change The Way You Walked, You Talked, And All Of That. But That's Not Acting. That's Shmacting.

It Was A Really Wonderful Experience [at Hi Honey, I'm Home Show]. I Loved Nick At Nite At The Time, And I Was Obsessed With Watching It, So Just To Meet Some Of The More Experienced Stars Of The Older Shows Was A Real Treat And A Thrill For Me.
