“My first professional acting job was in 'Hair' during the Vietnam War. So I think I've always been drawn to projects with a social conscience.” ThinkingFirstsWarJobsSocialActingHairProjectsConscienceVietnamVietnam War Author:Clarke Peters
“Voice acting is very different from live-action. You only have one tool to convey emotion. You can't sell a line with a look. It's all about your vocal instrument. Doing voice work is also great because you don't have to get your hair done, which I despise.” LooksDifferentDoneActionVoiceLinesActingEmotionHairToolsInstrumentsSellsDespiseVocalVoice Acting Author:Felicia Day
“Voicing acting is usually fun. I'm very curious about that world. I'm a fan of documentaries, as well, and the voice kind of makes it right. Mostly for me, though, it's all about the acting -you don't have to get hair and makeup and the whole bit. You just can have fun with the acting.” WorldWellsKindWholeFunBitsVoiceActingFansHairCuriousHaving FunMakeupDocumentariesHair And Makeup Author:Marg Helgenberger
“What surprised me about directing is how much I loved it and how happy I am to be on the set. I love coming to work in the morning. What I realized is that I never loved acting. I don't love being in the hair and makeup chair. I don't [love] being in costume. To me the strangest thing is that I've just spent the majority of my life in one aspect of this business, and because I was fortunate enough to become successful I never questioned whether I felt at home and found out later in life that I'm much happier directing.” EnoughHomeFoundFeltLove IsActingMorningSuccessfulHairAspectMajorityI RealizedFortunateChairsMakeupCostumesBecoming SuccessfulLater In LifeHair And Makeup Author:Angelina Jolie
“The upsides of acting in things is mostly getting your hair done and having people give you clothes.

“Some of my biggest complaints about acting in television were that I was always wearing a tight dress or pencil skirt, and I was always wearing heels. I thought, "This sucks! Why, because I'm a woman, does it mean I always have to wear this same outfit and this same hairdo, and spend the same two hours in hair and make-up, and the guys get to be there two hours after me?" I remember being mildly offended by that.” MeanDoeTwoRememberGuyHoursActingTelevisionHairDressesHeelsComplaintsPencilsOffendedSkirtsHairdosTight Dresses Author:Trieste Kelly Dunn
“Sure, being good at your job is really important, but in acting, so much of the decision's already made the minute you walk in the room because they're like, 'His hair's good or she's got the right skin color' or whatever. It's so random, but it's so physically oriented.” MadeImportantJobsDecisionWalksRoomsActingMinutesColorHairSkinsBe GoodSkin Color Author:Rashida Jones
“I'm a natural blonde. But when I started acting, I would go to auditions and they didn't know where to put me because I was voluptuous and had the accent - but I had blonde hair. It was ignorance: they thought every Latin person looks like Salma Hayek.” KnowsLooksPersonsNaturalActingIgnoranceHairLatinAccentsAuditionsBlondeHayekVoluptuousBlonde Hair Author:Sofia Vergara
