I pride myself on my iPod. It’s very eclectic. I know everyone says this, but I do really like all sorts of music. One of the great things about the Internet is you can surf around and get turned on to new stuff. My absolute favorite is Leonard Cohen, then I like the Clash and Blondie. My mom, she has great taste. Like Leonard Cohen. I was rifling through her old vinyl, and I found his first... [Read more]
I dated a guy for the past 3 1/2 years, and we just are taking it easy now. I have a hard time calling him an ex, because I like him so much. I had a couple boyfriends before him, but nothing serious. He was my best friend, and then it just turned into… I hated the idea of a high school sweetheart. Growing up, oh my God, it just made me sick. I wanted to have a range of cool boyfriends –... [Read more]
It’s funny, because I started the show in season seven, and that was near the end of Drake’s run. Our characters were in different grades, so we had a little bit of interaction, but I wasn’t shooting with him on a regular basis. But at that time, he was launching it and was on his BlackBerry all the time, telling us different people that he had spoken to or met. All of us were like, “Wow,... [Read more]
I just finished my third year of university at Ryerson in Toronto, and I was taking journalism. It’s nice, because they give you the chance to explore all the different areas, but I’m leaning towards being on camera or working in TV news, just because I will have a hard time ever leaving that crew and the atmosphere of working on a set. I really love making TV, so I think I’d want to stay... [Read more]

Mr. Simpson on the show has been on since pretty much the very beginning. He played a kid, and now he’s producing and writing – producing and directing, not writing, and still... [Read more]
I think a lot of Americans see Canada as this cute, silly little neighbor, but Canada really is an amazing place to live and to grow up. There’s a distinctly Canadian sense of humor. A lot of comedians come from Canada. The way that we look at ourselves is interesting, because where Americans see their country as this beacon of opportunity and industry and whatever. Canada just always takes... [Read more]

It’s actually one word, “Letitgo”, because so many people – and I’m completely guilty of this too – hold on to resentment or hold on to something for too long. When there’s nothing you can do about it – just letitigo! Let’s move on. I can’t keep harping on the badness and negativity. I can’t do it. How long have I been saying it? Probably since I’ve been out of college,... [Read more]
The worst thing about my job? I gotta tell you, it’s whenever I have to give guys lap dances. I don’t know if I should say this, but I hate it. I hate it so much. Being on the pole isn’t so bad, but when I actually have to touch the guys or sit on them or whatever, it just feels seedy and I don’t really like it. And so I’ll do it and I’ll try to get through it. A couple of the girls... [Read more]
Oh my gosh, I grew up with them because my dad listened to them. We would always have Cabaret or Sweeney Todd or something playing in the house. He always had music on when we were cooking dinner, and so Broadway was Wednesday night or something. I fell in love with it and I made him take me to New York to see the shows. And then I started taking dance classes so I could be on Broadway. It’s... [Read more]
My mother runs a foster daycare center out of our house. It’s a daycare center for children who are either too young or too small to go to government daycare. So there were constantly babies and children running around our house all the time. At one time there was anywhere from one to ten all the time – and baby babies, just crying and food and crawling around. It was always like that,... [Read more]
