I'd already fallen in love with her acting talent since I was a kid, but the first time I saw "Mermaids" I was an adult and I was shocked by how good she was at such a young age! She blew veteran actors all the way off the screen in her scenes. Such a talented actor.

The story about Cher is great, & an important illustration of the fact that many children, of various ages, often tend to assume they are the fault or cause of problems. If you've ever told your kids that you can't afford certain things, even for a period of time, many kids will internalize that, & worry about the cost of things, or offer their own money to help the family. Its a really important thing to understand, trouble between parents, a sibling who struggles, all kinds of issues will affect kids that way.

@@marcblair3781 “Getting work done” is very common these days for actors of a certain age, and I didn’t mean to throw shade at her if she has had it done. Which it looks to me like she has. But, like I said, she’s a working actor and that’s a business expense for them, and if it’s helping her stay relevant in her field, then more power to her.

I've been a fan since I was a kid, and I don't think I've ever seen her interview before. She's so versatile I always wondered which character was the most HER. I think I'm going to go with her role in cursed. Down to earth, shrewd, stands her ground. Maybe a hint of her role in the opposite of sex, but if character DeeDee hadn't been just pure mean and manipulative. Her school play story is the proper way to manipulate, lol.

She is darling and such a fun actor to watch. She brings it and was the perfect Wednesday Adams. I do know that the topic of being passive aggressive brought some fun stories out in this interview. Not to be a downer, but I absolutely despise people who are passive aggressive. I find it very manipulative and abusive. You can be assertive without being aggressive or passive aggressive, no matter your stature or gender.
