Voted in at #1 in FHM's Sexiest Girls of 2007 poll, Latvian edition. Ranked and Voted #1 by AskMen.com's Top 99 Most Desirable Women of 2006. Personal Quotes “I'm really good at being sarcastic with guys. That's the best way to hang out with them, because that's what guys like. They don't want the quiet, prissy little things.” “I like Spongebob Squarepants. He's goofy, like me.” “Men are much bigger divas than women. When I used to do the action scenes in "Dark Angel" (2000) I would have to play it rough. If you hit an actress accidentally, she would usually take it on the chin and say, "Don't do that again." But with the guys, they would put ice on it, take a 20-minute break and ask for X-rays. It was unbelievable. I would tell them, "Come on, man, get over it." That's actors for you.” “What happens when the looks fade?. If I don't establish myself as someone who can act a part rather than look the part, I will soon be finished.” “The most important thing I have learned in life was that being a teenager wasn't forever. I had a hard time being a teenager.” “I don't hang out with the Hollywood cool people. I'm not out trying to make friends with people because they're famous.” “I have my own spiritual thing, but am not part of an organized religion. I think religion is very special and individual to each person.” “I don't need to be in the press or seen. Just because I'm not in magazines or because I'm not in a movie doesn't mean I'm going away. It just means I have some sense of integrity.” “Living in L.A., everyone likes to mold you and change you. I don't care about fame, I don't care about being a celebrity. I know that's part of the job, but I don't feed into anyone's idea of who I should be.” “From a very early age, I remember thinking that adults were always acting like assholes. I couldn't understand why I had to respect them. My pre-school teacher forced me to write right-handed when I was left-handed. I didn't get why I had to change. Nobody could give me a reason. I have had a big problem with authority ever since.” “I just didn't like the damsel-in-distress thing. I could relate to young girls wanting to see her take care of herself. And because I'm so good at action, I talked the writer and producer and director into throwing together a little fight sequence. It ended up taking three more weeks to shoot it. But at least I'm not tied up and asleep until my knight in shining armor comes and saves me. So I thought it was cool.” “The movies that I do are usually physically demanding in one way or another. It's a good way to keep your health on track. Especially when you've been on-set for 14 hours, it's nice to relieve that stress in another way than having to rely on a big meal and wine.” “My first kiss was when I was 7, and it was scandalous because he was 10! I only did it so he would pick me on our neighborhood baseball team. And at the time, I thought it was great, but then it sucked because he didn't even pick me!” “My theory is that if you look confident, you can pull off anything - even if you have no clue what you're doing.” “I'm a total nerd at heart. If I'm not working I spend the whole day in my pajamas. I've never been desperate to be out there at parties, or to be playing the dating game.” “My mom grew up around a huge family, and they always wanted more kids, and I was like, 'Why don't you just adopt?' I'm totally inspired. If you have the love, and the capacity to love children, you should just adopt. And I plan on doing it.” “[on her daughter] I'm very strict with her. When it's time for her to eat, whether she's hollering or whatever, it's time to eat. She gets a time out if she cries for no reason. So then she stops because she doesn't want a time out.” Awards 2011 – ALMA Award : Favorite Movie Actress (won) 2008 – Teen Choice Award : Choice Movie Actress: Horror/Thriller (won) 2008 – Blimp Award : Favorite Female Movie Star (won) 2008 – People’s Choice Award : Favorite Female Action Star (nominated) 2008 – People’s Choice Award : Favorite Leading Lady (nominated) 2007 – Teen Choice Award : Choice Movie Actress: Action Adventure (nominated) 2006 – MTV Movie Award : Sexiest Performance (won) 2006 – ALMA Award : Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Motion Picture (nominated) 2006 – Blimp Award : Favorite Movie Actress (nominated) 2006 – Imagen Award : Best Actress (nominated) 2005 – Young Hollywood Award : Superstar of Tomorrow (won) 2003 – DVDX Award : Best Actress in a DVD Premiere Movie (won) 2002 – ALMA Award : Outstanding Actress in a Television Series (nominated) 2001 – ALMA Award : Breakthrough Actress of the year (won) 2001 – Saturn Award : Best Actress on a Television Series (won) 2001 – Golden Globe Award : Best Performance by an Actress in a TV-Series – Drama (nominated) 2001 – TV Guide Award : Breakout Star of the Year (won) 2001 – Teen Choice Award : TV - Choice Actress (won) |
