Costume is a huge part of getting into character. Your body soaks in what you're wearing, and you turn into someone else.

I developed a sense of self before moving to crazy Hollywood, which was really important.

I actually failed my first license test. I got an automatic fail. I guess I had been doing well but she had to pull the emergency brake so obviously there was a problem. I remember them handing me my fail paper and me just bursting into tears.

I'm from the suburbs and where I'm from didn't necessarily have people like you see in 'Suburgatory,' but along those lines and I think people will laugh at themselves. And it's lighthearted.
