No matter what the genre, I want to see me and my friends. I want to see reality. I want to see what we’re really like. I loved ‘Bridesmaids’. I thought it was the most honest portrayal of female friendship in such a long time.

I don’t want to be vain or fearful, and I don’t think I’ll do anything [in terms of plastic surgery], but if I want to do something, I will. From my perspective, there’s no reason to be afraid of aging, because if you age, you’re lucky! The alternative is death.
