Biography

[2004] I was just playing and having fun. I was making my mom happy. When a kid makes other people happy, you think it's love. Everything is so great. I liked performing for people. Probably, it's not really good that a young kid likes performing for everybody. They just want love and attention somewhere. It's kind of weird.

[2007] I've finally embraced my history, which I've never done before, because it was marked by pain. I'd never put any daughter of mine through acting because, while I loved acting and was happy working as a child, looking back, my happiness always came from pleasing other people, always. It came from satisfying the director or my mom or my acting coach, no...

[2007] It's not a natural way to grow up, and acting was never a dream for me because it had always been a part of me. It was the only thing I knew. It was just my life. For a while, there was a time when I had a lot of anger towards my mother because of what she did to me. Now, I understand what kind of woman she is: she always had the best intentions.

[2004] I auditioned for The Secret Garden (1993). When I didn't get that, I was sobbing on the floor. When other people want something for you so badly and you're young, you want it so badly too. I was crying because you feel like you've let your mom down. It's really messed up, when you think about it.

It's important for me that I don't get trapped in the whole teen scene because I feel that you can get lost in those kind of movies, and they aren't really about the actors; they're about selling the concept, and how much money it makes. So I just try to choose the scripts to have the best characters for myself, or would be the most challenging, or fun.

[on Melancholia (2011)] I definitely destroyed everyone else's lives for the first half of the movie.

I like people more undone than made up. Patricia Arquette is the ultimate. She's not anorexic or perfectly tan, she's not trying to be anything but what she is, and that's the most sexy thing.

[on Marie Antoinette (2006)] It's kind of like a history of feelings rather than a history of facts. So don't expect a masterpiece theatre, educational Marie Antoinette biopic.

I don't try to be sexy, but if you are sexy it comes out. If you're not, you're not.

[2006] You know that feeling when you wake up in the morning and you're excited for the day? That's one of my main goals in life.

[on kissing Brad Pitt in Interview with the Vampire: The Vampire Chronicles (1994)] It was horrible, I hated it. Brad and Tom were like my big brothers on the set, so it was like kissing your big brother - totally gross.

[July 2004] It would actually be really interesting if Spider-Man died. Why doesn't the superhero ever die? I think if Mary Jane was alone, pregnant and he died, she could give birth to a spider baby and carry on the series with another young boy or something like that.

What actor do you really take seriously who becomes a singer? It's kind of ridiculous. I can't think of anybody.

[on Bring It On (2000)] We're breaking boundaries. And we're not doing the same old little cliché of, "Oh, cheerleaders are dumb, so let's make fun of them.".

On every film I do, whenever there are other girls my age, I think it's definitely up to me to set the pace. That's because I've had a lot of experience and I think there's always a certain amount of professionalism that should be maintained.

The Virgin Suicides (1999) showed I could nail a very difficult character, while Bring It On (2000) brought a great deal of joy to young girls. These are the beautiful rewards of being an actress.

[on Spider-Man (2002)] I really wanted the role because I knew it would give my career a boost, especially in foreign markets where I don't feel I'm that well known.

I want to go on Crossing Over with John Edward (1999). I'd like to be regressed to find out about my past lives.

[on money] I think one of my credit cards is corporate for my company, Wooden Spoons Productions. I don't know; my financial adviser does that. I don't handle that shit.

And in the next film, they've got to bring in another female character. Just give me the acting; she can do all the falling and fighting.

I think vegetarians - for a lot of them - it's about a lack of commitment to life and relationships. There are some who just like the fact that they're controlling something in their life.

So many teen films are overproduced and people are going to burnout on the subject.

[2002, when asked how she stays in shape] I run the treadmill whenever I can do it with weights.

[2002] I'm never going to say anything about who I'm dating unless I'm married or engaged.

[on what her luxury item would be on survivor] My cat, because he's fun to play with, he'd entertain me, and I could eat him if I was really hungry.

[on turning down the role of Angela in American Beauty (1999)] When I read it, I was 15 and I don't think I was mature enough to understand the script's material. I didn't want to be kissing Kevin Spacey. Come on! Lying there naked with rose petals?

Why would I cry over a boy? I would never waste my tears on a boy. Why waste your tears on someone who makes you cry?

Boys frustrate me. I hate all their indirect messages, I hate game playing. Do you like me or don't you? Just tell me so I can get over you.

I'd like to grow up and be beautiful. I know it doesn't matter, but it doesn't hurt.
