“If my life were a movie, I would want Julia Roberts to play an older version of myself. A talented actress with a strong sense of identity, Roberts portrays her acting roles in a very honest and genuine manner. She is someone who really commits to a role and contributes to a movie’s depth.”

“I would have to say I would definitely want Halle Berry or Rosario Dawson to play me. They not only have the same complexion, but we share similar backgrounds, and I feel they both could portray the complexities of my life I’ve experienced so far.”

“Julia Roberts, hands down. She’s an American treasure, a classic. Her smile is infectious, and I think she’s only grown more beautiful with age. Plus, how many times has she gotten the chance to make out with that silver fox Richard Gere? No one else could make prostitution look as glamorous as she did in Pretty Woman. I’m obsessed.”

“I would want Tina Fey to play a younger version of myself. Honestly, my first reaction was to say Natalie Portman, but, the truth is, while I’d like to believe she could play me, in reality I’m not nearly as graceful as she is. Tina Fey would definitely be more appropriate.”

“Ashley Olsen. We’re both petite blonds, and perhaps I could score a few freebies from her clothing line, Elizabeth and James. She is playing me in a movie after all, so the least she can do is a give me a few of those adorable tops…and maybe a blazer?”
