Lady
|
Nov 07, 2020

Nobody wants to see a bejeweled pregnant lady from top to bottom.

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020

I find it to be strange that people get obsessed about how fast actresses and celebrities are taking off their baby weight. I guess people like to look to them and feel better about themselves or feel worse about themselves.

Medical
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's interesting when people make comments about celebrities' weight gain or lack of weight gain as if they're a medical professional that's treating that celebrity. Like, 'This doctor does not treat Jessica Simpson, but thinks her weight is unhealthy.' If you don't treat her, then how do you know?

Girl
|
Nov 07, 2020

I do think moms should be given a break, all across the board. And I think that the most important thing is that you're healthy. After I had my little girl, I wanted to be healthy for her and have a healthy body image so that she hopefully grows up to see that her self worth isn't defined by how thin she is.

Fun
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm kind of lucky that we've finished shooting 'Cougar Town,' so I'm able to kind of just enjoy my pregnancy and be a stay-at-home mom and go to prenatal Pilates and do all that fun stuff that, if I were working, would be almost impossible to do.

New
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was in New York and I went to a meatball shop with my friend and there was paparazzi there and I thought, 'How did you know that someone was gonna come to this meatball shop?' But I was pregnant and I wanted a meatball sub and let me tell you, it was delicious.

Body
|
Nov 07, 2020

After 'Freaks and Geeks,' I dealt with several producers who wanted to cover up all my beauty marks, every single mole on my body. They tried to cover them on my first two episodes of 'Dawson's Creek,' and it just looked ridiculous, so I had to put my foot down. But it's not something I'm insecure about.

Great
|
Nov 07, 2020

Birdie is amazing and such an incredible child and I'm having such a great time being a mom but I still want to have a career and I still look forward to auditions and parts, and when I don't get them I'm disappointed.

Antiquated
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's ludicrous that my friends in California aren't able to legally get married. It's a civil rights issue. In 20 years we're going to look back at tapes of these antigay people saying ridiculous things on the news and it's going to sound as antiquated as the newsreels of horrible racists from the '50s.

Never
|
Nov 07, 2020

I never doubted that I would work, and every time I went to an audition, I went into the room with the knowledge that I was going to get the part. Ninety-nine times out of 100, I didn't.

Celebrity
|
Nov 07, 2020

I only became a celebrity because I had a kid. Before I was pregnant nobody cared. I joke to my agent that having a baby made my career.

Guilty
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't believe in guilty pleasures. If you enjoy something, there's nothing guilty about it.

Like
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm actually incapable of lying. I'm like a parody of a person who can't lie.

Nov 07, 2020

I would never be on a reality show.

Hate
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have the same pet peeve as Anderson Cooper, which is bare feet in public. I hate it. It so grosses me out, especially in New York. Oh my God, New York in the summer with people and their feet in their sandals and their flip-flops, like get it away!

Nov 07, 2020

Your first pregnancy you have nothing to do except sleep and take care of yourself and go to prenatal yoga or whatever. Now I have a full-time job, I have a four-year-old, I've got a life that is demanding my attention, so I've gone to prenatal yoga once. It's such a bummer.

Being Pregnant
|
Nov 07, 2020

The good thing about being pregnant is that I don't have to worry about sucking it in or dieting!

Medicine
|
Nov 07, 2020

I had a baby with no pain medicine, mainly because most people I talked to didn't think I'd be able to do it. So there!

More
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm so happy for anyone who chooses to get married! I want more people to join the club.

Everything
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm a sucker for a sale. I don't understand why anyone wants to pay full price for anything because everything goes on sale. I love sale websites. In fact - this is almost kind of embarrassing - I'm coming from an Isabel Marant sample sale.

Little
|
Nov 07, 2020

I love little Peter Pan collars and little puff sleeves.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

The rugs that I picked out and the pillows with the little owls, sort of like whimsical throw pillows - I feel like you can never enough whimsical throw pillows in your house, in your life. My husband probably disagrees.

Doing
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was always a very quirky kid. I remember very early like fourth or fifth grade doing pratfalls to make my friends laugh, like falling on the ground on the playground and doing like bits and characters.

Challenge
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm in the middle of my own 'Project Runway' challenge given to me by my daughter's preschool. All the parents have to make an outfit for their kids, for school pictures, made entirely out of recycled objects. I can not believe I have homework.

Cake
|
Nov 07, 2020

Also, this is what a pregnant Busy Philipps does in her free time, I'm taking master fondant cake decorating class with Anna from 'Ace of Cakes' at Duff's Charm City Cakes. It's, like, 4 three-hour classes.

Expired
|
Nov 07, 2020

My mother accidentally gave me food poisoning. She fed me baby carrots for a snack before Christmas dinner - but they had expired in June! I threw up for the next 24 hours.

Good
|
Nov 07, 2020

Yes, I'm having a baby. I think it's so hard as a woman to give yourself a break. It's great to be healthy but you have to set a good example for your kids and know that it's not about a number on a scale but how you feel.

Energy
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have the emergency kit in my purse that has double-sided tape and Tylenol, and a small energy bar. I'm the one that has an extra lip gloss just in case.

Our
|
Nov 07, 2020

'Freaks and Geeks' was a show where our individuality was really celebrated.

Nov 07, 2020

Now that I'm a wiser, older human, when I do photo shoots, I specifically say, 'Please do not airbrush my moles out.' Because they will do it, to make you homogenized.

Experience
|
Nov 07, 2020

And then I went to 'Dawson's Creek,' which is a show that was, for better or for worse, all about the language. It was a word-perfect show, which I'd never had any experience with. And it was really shocking for me. I felt really hemmed in. At the time, it wasn't my favorite working experience.

I Am
|
Nov 07, 2020

I like starting off the new year fresh. I'm excited to see how 2013 turns out. Maybe because I'm an actress and I am always on a diet and fitness program, but my New Year's resolution is to let myself be nice to myself about my body.

Dress
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have to make a dress out of recycled materials for my kid's preschool 'Project Runway'-like assignment. I'm currently fusing plastic bags.

Hot
|
Nov 07, 2020

I never underestimate the power of hot rollers for your hair and eyelash curlers for your eyelashes.

Nov 07, 2020

I love my nose! I was so nervous when I got pregnant that I was going to get that weird nose spread that you sometimes see pregnant ladies get.

Hate
|
Nov 07, 2020

If I see myself on a worst-dressed list - and I've been on many of them - I tend to have low self esteem for 24 hours. I just like to feel comfortable, and I like being excited about whatever it is I'm wearing. I hate subjecting myself to that kind of criticism!

Girl
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm a jewelry girl. I became with friends with designer Irene Neuwirth a few years ago. At that point, I just used to wear my wedding rings. Very low key. Now, if I could, I'd be draped from head to toe in her jewelry all the time. Everything she makes is beautiful.

Go
|
Nov 07, 2020

We didn't name Birdie before she was born. When she came out I said, 'I think we gotta go with Birdie, I think that's her name.'

Care
|
Nov 07, 2020

No one cares what you ate for breakfast. Unless it's something really spectacular, don't tweet me your breakfast, I don't care.

Money
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm somebody who doesn't work with a stylist. I'll be honest with you, I'm a mom and it's just not something I want to put money toward because it's expensive to have somebody who helps dress you and I feel like I have to pay for preschool and so many things... so I don't have a stylist.

Nov 07, 2020

From time to time I think I made some errors in judgment, but I have some really fashionable friends and I feel I've cultivated my own sense of style and what I feel comfortable with over the years.

Fashion
|
Nov 07, 2020

In high school I had some famously egregious fashion missteps. I was really out there in fashion, I think because I wanted attention. I would wear crazy patterns, skin-tight pants and giant platform shoes.

Fashion
|
Nov 07, 2020

I think it's important for kids to express themselves with bad fashion. I struggle a little bit now because I have a daughter and I feel with fashion, like they're sexualizing the kids so young. Little kids in high heels and that kind of thing is really difficult for me to wrap my head around.

Home
|
Nov 07, 2020

We're not co-sleeping. I'm all for what people want to do in their home, but I need my bed. I'm a terrible sleeper... I toss and turn and flip, and it would just be a disaster if there were a baby there. And I think it's important for a kid to have their own space.

School
|
Nov 07, 2020

You can be in Ohio and shoot your own web series, if you want. If this had been around when I was in high school, I can guarantee you that my friends and I would have been shooting our own television shows and putting them online and trying to get as many hits as possible.

Know
|
Nov 07, 2020

I know so many people who actually just watch television on their computers now and don't even really watch their TV anymore.

Follow Through
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have great ideas, but the follow through is always really difficult for me. As my kid gets a little bit older, if I feel like I have a little bit more time on my hands, I'd like to get more into developing ideas and writing things.

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020

I actually feel like, for a lot of my career, I wasn't able to show my comedic range. I did a lot of dramas and dramedies. I was on 'E.R.' That's not generally thought of as a funny show.

Like
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't ever feel like I have to stop myself from complaining about how hard it is to be an actress. I mean, it's not that hard.

Mother
|
Nov 07, 2020

My great-grandmother, who was known as Nana, passed away before I was born, but she and my mother were very, very close. For as long as I can remember, we made Nana's waffles in my house. It was a weekend tradition.

Daily Basis
|
Nov 07, 2020

My children make me cry on a daily basis about everything. Tears of joy, tears of pain, tears of sadness - all the tears, all the time.

Experience
|
Nov 07, 2020

When you go into to vacationing with kids, what people don't get is that there is a portion of it that's going to be unpleasant because you're traveling with children. When people have these expectations that it's going to be perfect or amazing, that has never been my experience.

Nov 07, 2020

I always pack a travel snack bag. You don't want to get stuck without snacks no matter where you go!

Nov 07, 2020

We have traveled with our kids since they were babies. We've had some crazy times, obviously, with the kids. My husband and I both work, and they just really look forward to our vacation and our time to be together to reconnect.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

Don't get me wrong: I love 'Moana!' But when it gets to the point where you find yourself singing Disney songs in your dreams, you have an issue.

Myself
|
Nov 07, 2020

I feel like it's the last frontier: the weight thing with women. I think that so many women, like, even myself, I'm so mean to myself about my body sometimes, or I can be judgmental of other people for their bodies. I don't know how to get over it.

Dark
|
Nov 07, 2020

If I snack, it's generally hummus on Rice-Thins or Nut-Thins crackers and some guacamole. If I need something sweet, I have dark chocolate chips stashed in my freezer, and I'll eat a few to satisfy my sweet tooth - but only if there aren't any cinnamon gummy bears around. I'm a sucker for those!

Every Day
|
Nov 07, 2020

I really try to do and eat the same thing every day when I'm home and in my routine.

Mean
|
Nov 07, 2020

I identify as a feminist. I have so many feminist beliefs - and then I'm so mean to myself about my body sometimes.

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020

I was asked to lose weight by a network for a TV pilot. The conversation happens because you get a job, and your agent or manager calls, and they say, 'They are so excited about you. They just think there is no one better for this part, and they want you to look and feel your best. They really feel that that could include losing 15 or 20 pounds.'

Friends
|
Nov 07, 2020

At the time - but we've since made amends - James Franco and I really didn't get along. When we were on 'Freaks and Geeks,' we were 19, and we really, really disliked each other. He shoved me to the ground once; it was really brutal. We're friends now, and we really like each other now as adults - but as kids, we did not get along.

Big
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm big into my Twitter account.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

I've been on hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of auditions in my life, so it's not unusual that I went in for 'Glee.' What was unusual is that it was a week, exactly, after I had given birth.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

As you fall in love with friends, you want to spend more and more time with each other.

Hair
|
Nov 07, 2020

Any character, for me, always comes together in the hair, makeup, and wardrobe. Shoes especially. For some reason, shoes really do it for me because they help me figure out how the character walks.

Know
|
Nov 07, 2020

I don't wear a lot of jeans, which I know is a controversial statement. I just don't feel the most like myself in jeans.

Like
|
Nov 07, 2020

I like some pants; I just don't like jeans very much. Dresses are so much easier because I don't have to think very hard.

Dress
|
Nov 07, 2020

A dress is so great because you can grab a dress, then you either wear it with tights or no tights, depending on what the weather is outside. You can throw a little jacket over it; you can take the jacket off. It's very easy.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

Ever since I was a teenager, I always had a very strong sense of my own personal style. Kind of for better or for worse - actually I don't think it's ever been for worse. The way that I dress has always been a pretty accurate reflection of my personality and my life.

Just
|
Nov 07, 2020

This isn't just 'Scrubs' with new actors. 'Cougar Town' has a heart to it that's all its own.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's sad to me we can't be in a place where we can acknowledge we're all doing our best and respect the decisions other women make and even offer to help out.

Husband
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's hard to find a way to be good to your husband, be good to your kid, and be good to yourself.

Know
|
Nov 07, 2020

I certainly know women who had children, quit their jobs, and still have full-time nannies. That's who these women are: Even to the detriment of their own relationship with their kids, they want to appear perfect Martha Stewart moms.

Nov 07, 2020

As a television actor, when we work in TV, what we're doing is making a product so that networks can sell ad space.

Luck
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm an actor who works, and a lot of this is luck for me, that I get to be a part of really great shows that have these cult followings.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

Anybody who works with me knows this: I always repeat wardrobe in my characters. We're trying to play real people.

Life
|
Nov 07, 2020

Six years of your life is a long time to do anything, and especially in this business, where you get so used to being nomadic and moving on to different jobs.

Lot
|
Nov 07, 2020

I talk a lot. I'm very decisive.

Children
|
Nov 07, 2020

There's no one right way to be a person, we're all just doing our best. So the same thing should apply to parenting and raising your children and the things you go through.

Feel
|
Nov 07, 2020

It can feel isolating to be a mom. I've been one and felt isolated.

Nov 07, 2020

Very quickly, kids take your plan and say, 'Ha!' so you have to learn to be adaptable, or you will be literally miserable.

Down
|
Nov 07, 2020

I had really specific ideas of what kind of mom I was going to be and what kind of things I was going to provide for my child - even down to the organic, wooden toys Birdie was going to be allowed to chew on. Then cut to my daughter being obsessed with every plastic, 99-cent store toy.

Nov 07, 2020

I called my mom sobbing when Birdie was a few months old and said, 'I'm sorry. All this time, I had no idea how much you loved me.'

Getting
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm a big believer in letting kids have as much responsibility as you can give them in terms of helping around the house and getting themselves dressed.

Hard Time
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have my own grown-up versions of temper tantrums, too. I have a hard time not getting hurt when my kids have meltdowns.

Nov 07, 2020

It's not all Instagram worthy!

Marriage
|
Nov 07, 2020

It is important to give your kids that individualized attention while also making time for your marriage and for yourself.

Good
|
Nov 07, 2020

I have had moments where I've felt like, 'I'm going to feel a little guilty if I don't put the baby down for her nap today, but I really need to go to that spin class. And that's good for my health and my mental well-being, so I think the nanny can put her down for her nap, and I'm going to be OK with that.'

Nov 07, 2020

I make sure that I'm not focused on other things when I'm spending time with my children.

Banana
|
Nov 07, 2020

I love Banana Boat's brand. They don't test on animals; they're natural. Their kids' products are amazing.

Great
|
Nov 07, 2020

I wanted a half-hour, single-camera comedy with a great lead where I could be No. 2 or 3 on the call sheet, and it was going to get on the air. Those were my criteria, and they sent me 'Cougar Town.' I read it and loved it.

Grateful
|
Nov 07, 2020

If you're not in a place where you're grateful that your show keeps getting renewed, and you can't figure out a way to keep it fresh, you should pick another career.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

I love proving that I can do something.

More
|
Nov 07, 2020

The idea that we all have to be Pinterest-perfect, killing it on all fronts, drinking our probiotics, remembering to have Rishi, and putting all these things in our kids' lunches - there's a lot of pressure to do all of the things. And we can't do all of the things. I can do a few things, and I've got them nailed. I think that's more realistic.

Love
|
Nov 07, 2020

Honestly, I don't have time for a lot of TV. And it's unfortunate, because I love TV.

Nothing
|
Nov 07, 2020

I'm flattered that people want to hear me talk about nothing.

Path
|
Nov 07, 2020

It's nice to have the support of the LGBT community, because they're loyal, and they'll follow you down any career path.

Down
|
Nov 07, 2020

I remember dealing with bullies in high school and being put down because I was different.

Me
|
Nov 07, 2020

Everybody asks me questions about the inside of James Franco's mouth.

Gay
|
Nov 07, 2020

I love that we've chipped away at the celluloid closet and have wonderful programs that feature gay and lesbian characters in really rich, fully developed ways.

People
|
Nov 07, 2020

I just like working with people that I respect and think are really funny.
