Inside InStyle Magazine

"It's the same with all actresses. Whether it's their beautiful long, wavy hair or their extraordinary lips or their sparkling green eyes or warm laugh, they're pegged to some physical attribute. I think the important thing is not to think of it as blessing or a curse, and to deal with it and have a mechanism for managing. Obviously, if I looked distinctly different I would have a different kind of career and have different kinds of challenges. But there are plenty of challenges that come from being a tall girl. Nobody would have thought I would have a 20-year career in front of me when I started!"
