If a man lets all of my dogs sleep in the bed with us, then that is the most romantic thing. You must love my dogs in order to love me. A man who is nice to my animals and doesn't shoo them away - well, that's the height of romance.

My new movie, Fools Rush In, is a romantic comedy and the girl I play in that is very warm, very sweet.

For my wrap present, Colin Farrell gave me a first edition book. I got so involved with this character and I was so sad when the movie was over that when I got home and I tried to read the book I got really emotional and I started crying.

What is important is to believe in something so strongly that you're never discouraged.

I'll tell you, there is nothing better in life than being a late bloomer. I believe that success can happen at any time and at any age.
