I don’t know how to explain how, probably to my detriment, unselfpromoting I am. I used to have a cabaret act and I didn’t even like to tell me people about that. I really hate selling myself.

I like being feminine. I think it’s good to be feminine. We don’t need to look like men or dress like men or talk like men to be powerful. We can be powerful in our own way, our own feminine way.

The first job I ever had was singing in a jazz club when I was like 15 with my friend, and we earned like 70 bucks. We were like, ‘Oh my God!’

I’ve always been really picky about roles and make a point of reminding myself that it’s not about the money – because, obviously, there’s a lot of money to be made in this business if you’re willing to do anything.

I don’t think I’m very much like anyone else, really. I’m sure there are aspects of other actors that I share, but I don’t see anybody else and go, “Damn, they stole my thing.” I’m me, and I like that there are people who have an appreciation for that.

I feel there are tone singers, and there are more vocal gymnastics singers. And I think that’s amazing when people can do that, but I think there’s room for the tone singers. And there aren’t a lot of them.

I would watch ‘Wizard of Oz,’ like every day, when I was two. I had a hard time understanding that I couldn’t go into the film, because it felt so real to me.

I’ll have these internal moments where I’m empathizing with someone else or feeling something myself, but I’m like, “How can I see the best in this situation?” Sometimes those are the moments where you can have the most clarity.

Not that there is anything wrong with confessional songwriting, there are plenty of people that do that I admire. I think it is great; it just isn’t how I do things.

You can’t know if someone’s really your best friend. I think the measure of that is you could not see each other for six months and then when you see each other you laugh the same way you did when you were a little kid.
