I'm very lazy.

I always wanted siblings.

I love an iconic hairstyle.

'Star Wars' is my heart. I love it.

I always love trying new and different things.

People need to stop filming things at festivals.

I don't know if I would play a woman in space in a bikini.

Cooking is a dangerous thing for me. I'm pretty inept in the kitchen.

My whole life, they said, 'Do not act. You need to get a college degree'.

If life's not funny, then it's just true - and that would be unacceptable.

It's good to be authentic, to help other people, but if it's not helping other people, then don't do it.

I am a Southern girl at heart, so I have a pulled pork sandwich and Key lime pie every day. It's a problem.

I'm obsessed with Norah Jones and Amy Winehouse, Etta James. I'm really into blues and R&B type of stuff, '90s hip-hop; that's my jam.

Paul Rudd - I wish he was my dad. I wish he was my brother. I wish he was my husband. He's everything to me and puts a smile on my face.

I went to NYU, and my parents had a rule that I needed to major in something other than acting if I wanted to pursue acting after college.

When you walk onto any set, it's usually primarily men. Which can be weird, especially when you're doing something emotionally challenging.

It's been so great being on 'American Horror Story' and 'Scream Queens' because there were some days when I didn't work, and I would spend my time shadowing directors.

I went to performing arts camp, secretly taking classes - I got the lead in the musical, and my dad was like, 'Wait, I thought you were going here for music and knitting'.

I am not a big horror freak. I'm a bit of a scaredy-cat in general. I can't handle scary movies unless I am at home with the lights on and the doors locked or it is in the morning.

The great thing about women directors is that they're not only involved in the performances - they can gauge where we all are personally and know how to direct us better because of that.

I want my mom on 'Scream Queens'. She could play someone who is convinced she's Princess Leila. That could be her disease, and then as a plot twist, we could find out that she actually is Princess Leila.

She raised me to not think of men and women as different. She raised me without gender. It's kind of the reason she named me Billie. It's not about being a strong woman - it's about being a strong person.

I was at Wesleyan first. I was there for a semester because I wanted that traditional college vibe. But when I got there, people would do normal college things, and I was like, 'I can't be here. This is a nightmare.'

My mom made me watch 'Star Wars' for the first time when I was about 7 years old. When I was younger, I hated action movies and pretty much anything loud. So when she put it on, I covered my ears and ran out of the room.

It's tough, when you play an iconic character, to break away from it. You have to make sure you have a lot of variety and make sure you choose roles that aren't similar to others, or else you get pigeonholed as one thing.

'Scream Queens' was so much fun, kind of like a big sorority. And 'American Horror Story' is very serious, like a really hip family of middle-aged women. The deaths were fun on 'Scream Queens'; the deaths on 'Horror Story' are very real and intense, and you have to be emotionally prepped for them.
