romantic at heart? Who knows.

birthday when I was 12 years old. He didn't invite me and so I showed
up. His mother turned me away. Brutal. I carry the wound of that around
with me today. I'm joking.
After going to all the trouble

It's hard to have a repartee
with Vince when you're looking at his bellybutton. I mean, the man is a
circus freak and I'm very short. So together it was an unusual pairing,
but we had a great time and he was very supportive.
Personally? Oh, when my mom
remarried after my father, she somehow put my brother, Daniel, in charge
of the music and he thought that it was so amusing to play Guns-n-Roses.

He's a veteran of this genre
of comedy and I'm not so every time that I did something, whether it was
improvising a baby voice or improvise how a magical friend speaks, he

that girl that won the Oscar for The Piano (Anna Paquin)…we
were all in a row. You can hear other people going "I'll find

movie legend.' He wasn't intimidating or anything. He was just a great,
great guy I thought.
