I'm really shy - I don't do karaoke.
I thought 'Garfunkel and Oates' would be too confusing, but it ended up being confusing in the best of ways because the first time we played a comedy club, it was because they thought we were the real Garfunkel and Oates.
At comedy festivals, we always get grouped with other musical comedians, so you can get to know them and see what everyone is doing. it's really fun and awesome that we're the only girls, because we can tackle issues that guys can't sing about.
There was always that kind of imagination in our house, which was always a little crazy.
I really like doing puppetry; I'm not sure if it will find its way into 'Big Bang,' but it always does seem to find its way into a lot of things.
I always think that I have plenty of time for everything, and then the reality of it doesn't quite match up.
My first songs were about animals and shoes. I wrote one song about PF Flyers, and one to my fish.
I never thought of myself as a singer, like ever, ever, ever. It's hysterical that I sing.
There have been moments where I'm like, 'I don't know how I'm going to survive and pay next month's rent.' And the next month I'm filming a movie in New York City.
My parents wanted me to be a teacher. Because I could work most of the year and pursue the things that I love to do during the summer. It just seemed like a good plan.
I babysat kids in a ShopRite, which is a grocery store. They had a babysitting center so that parents could bring their children while they shopped. It was awful. I also was not very good at keeping the kids calm.
When you're buying paintings, it feels grown up.
I secretly wanted to act. I also wanted be a toy designer and make puppets.
Near the end of high school, I was always super shy, backward.
