I'm Jewish and Italian, and I lucked out and got the nose of both cultures.
I got into the situation where I was extreme right. It turned out that my mother is Jewish, my grandmother is Jewish. I am Jewish. So I can't hate Jewish people.
I think youve got to work out what makes you happy. With me, its that I do lots of different things. So Ive got this rather odd career whereby Im not really a stand-up and Im not really an actor and Im not really a writer. But I do them all.
I have had wonderful times and educated two children with my husband, and I just consider myself very lucky. I've had a very interesting career - I've been all over the world. I lucked out; I think you can say that: I really lucked out.
Im sorry Im not gay or Jewish, so I dont have a special interest group of journalists that support me.
There is a Jewish tradition of family, too, but then not all Italian or Jewish families are close.
I am officially Jewish, but I’m Jewish in the same way the Olive Garden is an Italian restaurant.
When I was younger, I used to look at movie stars with pencil-thin noses and think about a nose job. I've got a grown-up baby nose; it's not chiseled and structured. Then I saw how beautiful Audrey Tatou was in 'Amelie' and thought, 'She's got a nose like mine, and if she can have a baby nose, so can I.'
I'm Italian, but some people think I'm Jewish because I work the Yiddish. I also work the Italian, by the way.
If Im honest, the reason I got into acting is not the reason Im still doing it, and if Im still doing it in ten years time, Im sure Ill find something else.
I've got a friend who is half-Jewish and half-Italian. If he can't buy it wholesale, he steals it!
Im okay Im okay now. But you really need to listen to me 'cause im telling you the truth I mean this im okay Trust me... Im not okay ...Well okay im not okay. Im not o-f cking-kay
I was keen on sports-that's how my nose got this way. It's not actually broken; the nose was just pushed up a little bit and moved over. It's an aquiline nose, quite Irish.
I make no claim that Jewish culture is superior to other cultures or that the Jewish song is better than the song of my neighbor.
I lucked out. I got in just when animation just started to take off.
When Im not working... Im an actor! Im auditioning! I like to hang out, have fun, drink, club, meet boys, look for boyfriends, play MASH, the usual.
