Christina Hendricks

Anytime someone talks about your figure constantly, you get nervous; you get really self-conscious.

I get kind of bored on the treadmill, but I do it. And I do a little bit of weight training. I'm really into the BOSU ball. You have to balance on it, and I do weights and squats on it. I'm pretty good at it, I feel sort of like a Karate Kid.

My parents didn't exercise, so it was not something I saw was good for you or fun. I wish I had grown up knowing to do that.

I think calling me 'full-figured' is just rude.

I was obsessed with the Canadian novel 'Anne of Green Gables'. I decided I was Anne of Green Gables. There was something that spoke to me about her, and I wanted to have her beautiful red hair.

I don't think it's not feminist to use every tool you have to succeed, and part of that is being a woman - presenting yourself in a certain way.
