Amanda Seyfried said she prefers New York to Los Angeles, where she 'sacrificed six years.'At 25, Amanda Seyfried has accomplished more than actresses twice her age. The former child model from Allentown, Pa., got her break in soap operas when she was 15, and by her 20s she was starring in movies alongside Justin Timberlake ("Alpha Dog"), Meryl Streep ("Mamma Mia!") and Megan Fox ("Jennifer's Body"). While she's been missing from the fifth and final season of HBO's "Big Love," New Yorkers may soon see more of her ? right here in the city.
Her new "Red Riding Hood" pits the actress against a werewolf terrorizing her medieval village. While the role might seem daunting, Seyfried is no damsel in distress.
On when she feels best: "I think I should mention that I'm not wearing any clothes ... I'm most comfortable in my birthday suit." (Interview magazine)
On her favorite characters: "I don't like to play characters that are too perfect ... Perfect is boring. People are made up of flaws." (Chicago Sun-Times)
On moving to NYC: "I sacrificed six years in L.A. ... I did my job out here. I made contacts and did the work I had to do. But I came here at 18. I'm out of here ... and I feel lucky it wasn't longer." (Esquire)
On premieres: "I have realized that I hate going to the premieres of the movies that I'm in ... because I feel this tension after the movie is over that everyone feels obligated to say something nice to you." (Sun-Sentinel)
