  • [on Knocked Up (2007)] A little sexist. It paints the women as shrews, as humorless and uptight, and it paints the men as lovable, goofy, fun-loving guys. It exaggerated the characters, and I had a hard time with it, on some days. I’m playing such a bitch; why is she being such a killjoy? Why is this how you’re portraying women? Ninety-eight percent of the time it was an amazing experience, but it was hard for me to love the movie.
  • I’d like to start talking children seriously in the next year [2009], but [my husband] Josh feels more like two years, so we’ll probably do a year and a half. I’m excited about having a big family. I’m talking five or six.
  • [on Hollywood stereotyping] You’re the blonde. Or the cheerleader. Or the girlfriend. It would have been really easy to fall back on the blonde and the bra size and just do that for the rest of my career.
