Star talk
On risk taking:
'Directing. Not to be too martyrish, but directing is an agonising thing. Somebody said it's like being pecked apart by a thousand pigeons.'
Kenneth Branagh
'The biggest risks weren't risks that I took but that people were willing to take that involved me. Cameron Crowe said, "I know nobody's ever heard of her but..." Those were risks, and I'll forever be grateful to those people.'
Renee Zellweger
'I don't think of anything as a "risk". I try to have every experience I can in life. When you're old, they say that your regrets aren't what you did but what you didn't do. So I like to take every opportunity that I can.'
Cameron Diaz
On bodies and body image:
'There's something very awkward about women and their breasts because men look at them so much. Men love them, and I love that.'
Drew Barrymore
'What's so beautiful about breasts is their uniqueness. I don't understand the obsession with fakeness. It's a very odd thing, isn't it, to prefer fake and big to small and unique or just beautiful and real.'
Anne Heche
'I refuse to become part of this perfect-body syndrome. I like my body. It looks good on-screen, and it's not because it's perfect. I accept it and wear it like a good dress... One guy I dated said: "You're beautiful but you're soft. You can't compete with other actresses in Hollywood because everyone's in shape and working out." I said: "Very nice to meet you. Good-bye!"'
Salma Hayek
On mistaken identities:
'People always ask me to sign Helen Hunt's autograph.'
Jodie Foster
'There was a time I could have been mistaken for Burt Reynolds. I had a moustache and so did he. But he was the number one star in the world, so there wasn't really much confusion.'
Tom Selleck
'I have a brother and two sisters, but I look more like Kelsey Grammer than any of them.'
David Hyde Pierce
