KATE WALSH

I used to skip breakfast, but eating gets my metabolism going, so I burn more calories all day.

People always say you can't do a red lip if you have red hair but I've never shied away from it. I think you can absolutely do that. It's more about hair colour and complexion.

You never want to rest on your laurels. You want to keep doing things that terrify you.

I try to cook dinner, but it's difficult when I'm working.

Sometimes I hope that through osmosis I might get a workout - just by wearing the clothes.

I think a lot of people just aren't aware how young you can be and be diagnosed with breast cancer.

My mother is Italian and my dad's Irish. In my family, we're expressive. Nobody holds back.

I don't like to take a lot of stuff since I'm really sensitive to medications.

I loved campaigning for Obama.

I've got four roommates and they all have fur and tails.

I second-guess myself all the time. I make a decision and then wonder if I made the wrong choice.

I'm stronger and sassier as a redhead.

Acting was all I ever really wanted to do.

I drink tons of water. When you're puffy, you think you can't drink water since you feel more bloated and gross but that's what you do to get the toxins out of your system. I put a little lemon in the water bottle that I carry around with me or drink a cup of hot water with lemon. It's a natural diuretic.

Age is just a number. Unless, that is, you live in Hollywood, where there's this notion that if you haven't hit it big by your 20s, you may as well hit the road.

I struggle with control.

There are lots of different ways for women to be a mom in this culture.

No matter what job you do, we all have a much different life than our parents had. My parents' generation had one job and then they retired. Now, people have many different jobs.

I would definitely love to be a parent.

I'm not a clean freak. My house is a mess.

I still like to make crank calls.

I do Pilates, and hike with my dog.

I'm lucky. I've got pretty good genes.

I've learned over and over that life happens on its own terms, not mine.

My mom, she's a breast cancer survivor and because of that I had started getting mammograms once a year, starting at age 30.
