“I’m very open to all different genres because I’m a very open-minded girl.”

I come from a very sporty background because my mom is a gymnastics teacher. So growing up I was never sitting watching TV in the afternoons. I always played ball outside in the backyard.

I’m a person who loves people. It’s all about the vibe of the environment I’m working in.

I always tell myself that it is very, very important for me to be a good role model for Alma, my daughter.

Once you become a mother, you always have a guilt trip. You always try to do the best, but you feel you can always be better.

The people who work in the fashion industry and the people who work in the film industry have a lot in common. They’re very creative. Their eye is very aesthetic.

In real life I’m the type of girl who doesn’t take herself too seriously. I’m very serious when it comes to work, but I like to make jokes and have a good laugh and make fun of myself.

When you play a character, you bring yourself into the character. You get a chance to shine and show your translation for the character and her state of mind.

I’ve never experienced a bad situation with men being sexist with me. I’ve been very lucky – even when I was just starting and modeling in Milan and Paris.

I’m a goofy girl. I like to laugh and I like to make other people laugh.

I didn’t want to do the obvious role that you see in Hollywood most of the time, which is the heartbroken girl who’s waiting to be rescued by the guy, blah, blah, blah. I wanted to do something different.

I do cardio, but I don’t like it as much. I’d rather do weights.

By the way, Wonder Woman is Amazonian, and historically accurate Amazonian women actually had only one breast. So, if I’d really go ‘by the book’ it’d be problematic.

For me especially, I travel a lot, and with the weather change and everything, my skin gets dehydrated very fast.

I wish we had more female writers. Most of the female characters you see in films today are ‘the poor heartbroken girl.’ That’s why I’m so proud of the Fast movies. I feel like Giselle is an empowering woman.

I just keep active – everything thats challenging me, everything that I feel like doing.

I try to eat healthy. But sometimes, though, I eat cheeseburgers. Thats good for the soul. I make sure to balance everything out. I drink tons of water.

Most of us know about God, but that is quite different from knowing God.

Union is as if in a room there were two large windows through which the light streamed in; it enters in different places but it all becomes one.

The secret is Christ in me, not me in a different set of circumstances.

You must walk to the beat of a different drummer. The same beat that the wealthy hear. If the beat sounds normal, evacuate the dance floor immediately! The goal is to not be normal, because as my radio listeners know, normal is broke.

You can use martial arts to tell a different story. Ang Lee used martial arts in ‘Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon’ to talk about love.

Being a “brave girl” doesn’t mean she doesn’t need anyone to take care of her. Being brave and being taken care of are two different things.

When we lose a piece of love we were holding so close to our heart and our soul for so long. We sometimes wonder if it will return the same or differently or has it fallen beneath the settling of our past.

Dance music is like a virus, it has affected so many different genres.
