Amy Poehler

Elle Magazine
Parks and Recreation star Amy Poehler admits to ELLE, "I like to do things that challenge me and make me nervous. You learn early as an actor that creating your own material is the only way to have any control. Hollywood is like a bad boyfriend. You can’t stand around and wait to be asked to dance."

Mindy Kaling

Mindy Kaling's former Office co-star, ex-boyfriend and best friend BJ Novak says of The Mindy Project actress, "She's a gangster and guys respond to that. This is not a girl who waits by the phone. This is a girl who picks up the phone and calls whoever she wants."

Allison Williams

Elle Magazine
Girls star Allison Williams has big plans for her acting career. She tells ELLE, "I want to play a villain. I want to play a romantic heroine. I want to play someone who’s on heroin. There's nothing I don't want to do. I want to play a guy at some point. I'll gain 100 pounds, I'll cut my hair off, I'll do whatever. I'm not precious about any of it."
