On her current weight:

“I’m pretty solid, actually. I’m not, like, 110lbs. But I’m probably heading towards that.”

On the trials of eliminating liquid calories:

“I love my glass of wine. I love tequila. To be in New York for two weeks and not have one beverage! I’m not sure I’ve ever done that.”

On the greatness of Botox:

“I was in a press conference once, and someone says, ‘So, I can tell you’ve never had Botox!’ Is that a compliment? Or are you trying to say I’m starting to get wrinkles? I literally was like, ‘What?’ Everyone’s so obsessed with who gets Botox, but it’s great! Are you kidding? The fact that women can avoid going under the knife, and get a little Botox treat and not have to worry about it? I’m glad it’s there for when it’s time.”
