Q: What does it feel like when you hear you are being compared to other members of young Hollywood, such as Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears?
A: We're only compared because of our age. Other than that, I never wanted to be a model. I never wanted to be a serious actress. I started off doing comedy. I did a stand-up comedy camp at the Laugh Factory, and I started out on Nickelodeon (in 1996 with the sketch comedy show All That). I'm in no way in competition with them. I feel like I have a totally different thing.
Q: So not Marilyn Monroe?
A: No, I don't want to be Marilyn Monroe. In many ways, that's a good comparison. Because Marilyn Monroe was a sexpot, all that stuff that I have no interest in. For me, it's much easier to just try to make people laugh than to try to be the hottest thing in the world.
Q: What are you planning to do for the rest of the summer?
A: I'm promoting (Dear) here and then Sydney White, which is coming out in September. No Labor Day plans. Other than that, I'm just trying to figure out what movie to take on next.
Amanda talks about what she does in her free time and more about Dear, so check out the rest of the article here.
I hope in between all this she finds some time to take a break!
