I'm pretty money savvy. My dad made me read 'Rich Dad Poor Dad' when I was 12 - this investing book about how to manage your money and be smart. So I'm kind of like a grandmother.

I went to a cleansing retreat in the desert where I didn't eat for eight days and experienced hunger-driven hallucinations.

I had tumors on both ovaries, and the cancer had spread into my lymph nodes and surrounding tissues.

I don't think I'll ever feel like I'm cancer-free.

Anytime anybody jumps out at me, I scream.

I was on a strict diet to stay in shape for 'Jack Reacher,' but each day on set in New Orleans, catering dropped off delicious food at my trailer.

I would love to do another 'Jack Reacher' movie.

People always let me know when their team beats the Canucks.

I saw 'Starbuck' before I ever knew I would be involved in 'Delivery Man,' but I liked it, and then a couple of months went by, and I really knew I wanted to audition for it when it became available.

I like to challenge myself and grow as an actress.

I'm coming to that realization that I'm going to be seen as a mom to someone, and it makes you think about your own parents. You know, who were they?

One of the major complaints for long-running shows is that they become mundane.

I keep fooling people into giving me jobs, and now I'm on Broadway. It's always something I've wanted to be a part of, and I can't believe that this is the experience I'm having.

I had a daily 30 minute pushup routine. Then I boxed 3 times a week for about an hour. And then, I had the trainer come to my house an average of 1 to 2 times a week.

I have a very flexible and easy schedule that affords me a wonderful lifestyle in Los Angeles. I'm able to be a very present mother, able to pursue other projects.

I'd love to shoot something in Toronto; I'd love to bring something to Canada. I'm dying to shoot something in Vancouver where I'm from.

Joss Whedon is the best man on the planet.

I think everybody feels their pregnancy differently, and for me, I was so in work mode.

'The L-Word' was such a great show because of the amazing writing and characters, but maybe because it was such a new concept, people couldn't pick up on it, but I think it was down to the dynamic characters and how well done it was.

We have very strict rules about TV and film in my house.

I played football for 12 years, but I would always trick myself into exercise, like by taking a dance class.

Self-defence helps with your confidence, and if you ever find yourself in that type of situation, you are more physically capable.

I felt very patriotic playing a New York City cop.

The Marvel world is a pure joy to be a part of.

The great thing about being on a series for nine years is you get to see the characters grow and change.

When you're doing a movie, it's finite - you have a trajectory of where your character's going, and you follow that. Then the storybook closes.

I've always been the type that, every few months, I'm like, 'Let's change the haircut one more time.'

If you think of any past artist, there was something that they looked at that inspired them to make their most famous pieces, whether it be the 'Mona Lisa' or 'Venus Rising.'

Whenever I really get serious about something, I pull my hair back into a tight ponytail. If you see me with that, you know I mean business.

I was once dressed as a mermaid for a Jean Paul Gaultier show. My legs were bound into a fish tail, so I had to come down the runway on crutches. Halfway down, I was supposed to unzip the fish tail to reveal my legs, but the zipper broke, so I ended up stabbing my fake nail through the fabric of the zipper and ripping my way out.

Models can be people, too. But the only way to do that is to kind of step up and keep doing new things that no one has thought of, from new websites to new blogs, a newscast, doing speeches, talking to kids. It kind of opens a new headline every time: 'Oh, a model hasn't done this before; a model hasn't done that before.'

I don't do nudes. I don't do semi-nudes. I don't do cigarette shots. It took me a long time in the business to realize I didn't have to do everything people told me I should if I wanted a career.

The funny thing is that, for some reason, people think when you're pregnant, you have to start wearing maternity wear and wear flats and look Mom-ish. I don't know exactly what people expect of people who are pregnant, but there's definitely a lot of moms out there that look super fabulous all the time, and I guess that's my inspiration.

To me, true style icons have been few and far between. Elizabeth Taylor comes to mind. I never got to meet her while she was alive, but she is one of those people I have always admired in terms of her sense of style.

If you're posting pictures to platforms like Instagram or Twitter, be selective about the one you post. If I'm capturing a sunset, I'll take at least 10 pictures. I'll then filter them using other apps, enhance them. Then, I really pick the best image of perhaps 30.

I love modeling, and I want other girls to enjoy the experience.

I remember working with Agyness Deyn. At the time, she was the only one who had short hair as a model. I remember being so envious of her because we would all be getting our hair pulled for two hours backstage, and she was getting a new haircut almost every other show.

A little personal trick: apply brown eyeliner throughout the day and then just add a little black over the top for a night look.

I was the first model to get a blog and talk about anything in modeling.

Models are supposed to be a muse to you. Why is a muse always the same body type, the same look? It's boring.

If I want a hamburger, I'm going to have one. No 21-year-old should be worrying about whether she fits a sample size.

I didn't know anything about fashion. You would see me in the biggest sweater with jeans or the tightest elastic pants. Not nice clothes. My mom took me a lot to consignment stores when I was younger, and I never really got to go to fancy high-class stores, so... vintage was like a step up.

Previously, someone would interview me, and if they liked me, it'd be a great story. If they hated me, it'd be a horrible story. I had no way to say anything. Social media changed things for people who didn't have a voice.

You can teach a girl how to model, how to take a pretty picture, and how to walk, but you can't teach personality.

When I started modeling, I didn't feel like I had a big sister to tell me how this industry works.

If it weren't for my Irish dancing, I wouldn't be modeling.

Weirdly enough, in my 14 years of modeling, I've only worn a blonde wig three times. I have no idea why I've never been given the option to really try blonde as a model. But here I am doing it on my own.

Oh, the dilemma of the summer music festival. On one hand, we ladies try very hard to look cute walking around those muddy fields in our cowboy boots and cut-offs. On the other hand, we want to look like we really didn't try at all and just rolled out of bed looking this way.

I'm obsessed with historical English royalty.

As a woman, sometimes we stress on always being of the moment, and that is a lot of pressure, especially for young girls.
