“I don’t love acting; I love chocolate.”

I do enjoy life, I really do. Especially if I wake up the next day.

Michael Jackson is part of my heart. We would do anything for each other.

The problem with people who have no vices is that generally you can be pretty sure they’re going to have some pretty annoying virtues.

You can be fat and still be sexy . It all depends on how you feel about yourself.

Now is the time for guts and guile.

I’ve always admitted that I’m ruled by my passions.

Big girls need big diamonds.

Sometimes I think we know too much about our idols and that spoils the dream.

The things that are important to me – being a mother, a businesswoman, an activist – are all things that were borne out of great passion.

Everything makes me nervous – except making films.

I don’t have a short temper, I just have a quick reaction to bullshit.

I gave a very dear friend of mine my humanitarian award. Because you don’t need an award to be, or not be, a humanitarian.

I’ve never thought of my jewelry as trophies. I’m here to take care of it and to love it, for we are only temporary custodians of beauty.

I want it all quickly ’cause I don’t want God to stop and think and wonder if I’m getting more than my share.

I love cakes. Chocolate and coconut cakes. I love that combination!

When I feel myself getting overwhelmed, I take a deep breath and eat a piece of chocolate.

Whether it’s the experiments on ‘MythBusters’ or my earlier work in special effects for movies

I’ve regularly had to do things that were never done before, from designing complex motion-control rigs to figuring out how to animate chocolate.

I love nothing more than a good, rich, dark chocolate. It exhilarates. It satisfies.

I adore dark chocolate.

I am always shocked that there are still a handful of defenders of the dubious practice of abstinence, surely the worst idea since chocolate-covered ants.

One time, Niall sat on the floor for hours trying to find a way of putting his M&M’s in alphabetical order.
