Jennifer: (on a beauty tip) Elizabeth Taylor taught me that if you do your hair and makeup first then take a hot bath right before you leave, it brings out your inner glow and takes away the powdery look from makeup. I do that right before every date.
Jennifer: (referencing a John Mayer song) My body is far from a wonderland. My body is more like a pawnshop. There's a lot of interesting things put together, and if you look closely you'd probably be excited, but at first glance, not so much.
Jennifer: (on rumors of her and Alec Baldwin being together) And truthfully it was insulting to me, because it went from being a ha-ha-ha rumour of 'Are they cuddling on set?' to 'Was this the reason Jennifer got hired?' Insinuations that I wasn't there for my ability, that I was just there to be his chick were really insulting. Normally I don't get offended by those things, but that I was offended by.
Jennifer: (on her role in The Client List) My mom's like, 'I'm so proud. You're pole dancing and you're going to play a prostitute. Awesome!'... ...It's like, 'Yeah, what you always dreamed about, mama!' But you know, it's a great part.
Jennifer: (on the rumor that she was dating Ben Flajnik) I don't know why people are making such a big deal! I was looking for something pop culture to tweet about. I'm new to the Twitter situation and I wanted to have fun with the twitters out there.
Jennifer: (On not ending the TV series Ghost Whisperer in a proper way) When you've taken people on a journey for so long, the least you can do is give them a goodbye. For a show that was about unfinished business, we didn't get to finish.
Jennifer: (On the end of the TV series Ghost Whisperer) I was bummed for Melinda,... ...because I didn't feel the series ended the way that she deserved for it to. We left the audience sort of hanging, and I hate that.
Jennifer: (On realizing that the TV show Ghost Whisperer wouldn't continue) For me, it was a total shock,... ...I thought our next season probably would be the last, just because the show had been on for a really long time. It's hard to come up with new things that will keep people intrigued, but I never thought in a million years that was going to have been our last season.
Jennifer: (about her breasts in a "Playboy" interview) I just accepted them as a great accessory to every outfit.
