"If I had to design a career for myself, I would have done comedy." — Rene Russo

I loved 'Tin Cup' because even though that character had her own career and was strong, she was pretty confused. I think she was my favorite character because she was well-rounded. She didn't have it all together.

I didn't have a father growing up, and I was raised with all women, and I didn't really understand men. I thought they were like women, right?

I think I was pigeonholed pretty early on. And I started late in my career. I was 33.

By high school, I was already tall - 5-foot-8 - and one day I made the mistake of wearing green tights. The football players all started calling me the Jolly Green Giant.
