I was very shy, but was desperate to meet boys. So my sister told me to be a cheerleader. I didn`t make cheerleading squad, so I thought, "Why not try out for a play?" As soon as I did I found out I absolutely loved it. I could cry and scream and laugh, b...
Joan Allen
(On her conception) I was a bet. My mum was desperate for another child, and my dad told her that the only way they could afford to have one was if she sold a play. So Mum wrote When I Was a Girl, I Used to Scream and Shout.
Keira Knightley
My scream was a product of pure imagination. I had to imagine what was happening to me, and I imagined that the nearest help was far away. When I first saw the picture I thought the screams were overdone. But they were an important part of the picture and...
Fay Wray
I don`t like wearing dark glasses. I`m happy with the fact that people know me. I want people to scream and shout at me, I want people to trouble me when I`m having lunch, I like six bodyguards around me. I love being a star. I find it very strange when p...
Shahrukh Khan
I think the first Urban Legend is amazing. But they were a part of a horror evolution that began with Scream and ended with Scary Movie. I think we`ve begun a new phase, that is more evocative of 70s horror. The films that work today feel more immediate. ...
Jeff Wadlow
[On her character, Brooke, on "Melrose Place" (1992)]: Oh my God, it was awful! One time I was in a department store and, as I was walking around, I could hear women whispering: "There`s Brooke - that bitch!" I wanted to scream: "I`m not Brooke, I just pl...
Kristin Davis
As soon as I got off the boat, a man met me and said, `Will you please come up to the BBC studios and scream for us?` [On her trip to England in 1934] (2004)
Fay Wray
It`s a way to exteriorize all my shit. To scream and cry and laugh on-screen, it`s almost like black magic. You can do anything. I`m a dreamer, so that`s a good job for me. Onstage is the only place I can fully express myself.
Eva Green
[in Asiana magazine, August 2004, about Aishwarya Rai] She`s always working, if she isn`t acting she`s doing a dance show or singing at some billionaire`s party or attending some gala premiere. I wanted to shake her and scream, "Call this a life? Take a h...
Indira Varma
[On playing her part of Claire Spencer in What Lies Beneath (2000)] "I thought about Drew Barrymore in the first Scream (1996/I) - I mean, ultimately that movie was more funny than scary, but the opening sequence was quite terrifying, and she portrayed te...
Michelle Pfeiffer
[crowd cheers] "That was a good response and I`m not going to ask you to do it again. There`s nothing I hate more than going to a concert and the guy says `You having a good time?` and you scream your head off and then the guy says `I can`t hear you!` and...
John Mayer
I have an elbow that bends the wrong way, and I`d do things like stand in an elevator and the doors would close, and I`d pretend that my arm had got caught in it, and then I`d scream, `Ow, ow, put it back!`
Geena Davis
I would sing behind closed doors growing up. Jessica was so good and it made me shy about my own voice. But, I don`t hide my singing - not anymore. I sing punk music actually. I love to run around and scream and rock out and play guitar.
Ashlee Simpson
I like keeping Gale bitchy. She has a reputation to live up to. She may have changed her hair but not much else. [About her character Gale Weathers in the Scream (1996/I) series.]
Courteney Cox
It was exciting, but for a while being typecast as Lois made my vanity and narcissism scream. Hadn`t people seen my other work? But now my grandkids watch it, and think I was Superman`s friend, so that`s a thrill.
Margot Kidder
Working with Bette Davis was my greatest challenge and I mean that kindly. She liked to scream and yell. I just sit and knit. During the filming of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane? (1962), I knitted a scarf from Hollywood to Malibu.
Joan Crawford
Those horror pictures were the parts I was being offered at the time, and the scream came into play in almost all of them. People today call them classics; that amuses me a little, because I had so many reservations about them when I made them. I though t...
Fay Wray
[November 2004] I`ve never lived in a time so vexing. I just want to scream. It`s a nightmare. Bush [George W. Bush] and this administration are the worst thing that`s ever happened to America. I`m just as angry at Tony Blair. You lied to us, Tony. It was...
Elton John
I saw Vera Drake and Mike Leigh is a masterful filmmaker. I think it`s indisputable. He works with actors like no one else. It`s beautifully shot and beautifully played. And yet at the same time, I just want to scream! I say, would it have been a sin for ...
Todd Solondz
Sarah wants respect, and she`s not getting it. I like her because she`s got spirit and spunk. - on the character she plays in Scream 3 (2000)
Jenny McCarthy
I love doing Callisto. It`s therapy. I mean, wouldn`t you love it, if you got to scream and yell and you got to fight people and you got a sword and no one yelled at you? ... No, I didn`t study ... It`s just from the inside.
Hudson Leick
To me it was the epitome of caring about absolutely nothing, There were points when my mom would come home and scream at me about something, and I literally didn`t care about anything. It was like watching a really dramatic movie with the volume turned do...
Nicole Richie
The first time I looked at myself on the screen, I was ready to resign [the movie contract]. That can`t be I, I thought. Then when I realized it was, I said, "Good night." Strange enough, I was told that the picture was a scream. I had always been ambitio...
Charlie Chaplin
On how his life has been after Peter Pan (2003): "It`s awesome. I get recognized a lot by girls now. It`s great. I was wanting that for a long time and now I finally have it; and it`s great....It`s different hearing girls I don`t even know scream my name....
Jeremy Sumpter
You know in his tone of voice, his facial expressions. When he has a meeting, he doesn`t have to scream and yell, he can just give you that face and that tone he has, and you know we had better pick it up and get going again.
Tino Martinez
You can scream at me, call me for a shoot at midnight, keep me waiting for hours - as long as what ends up on the screen is perfect.
Arnold Schwarzenegger
"Why does everyone run toward a blood curdling scream?" mumbled the Senior Wrangler. "It is contrary to all sense."
Terry Pratchett
