"I've made 36 movies in 20 years and I overacted a lot in my early career. So it's very difficult for me to look at myself in those early movies." Jean-Claude Van Damme [Contact Music]

"Like Turtle would still be with Vince everyday, even if Vince was a garbage man. This is where you really get to see the loyalty of the show." Jerry Ferarra on the upcoming season of Entourage [OK!]

"It'll be tasteful, unless he does it the way I wrote it." Joss Whedon on an upcoming issue of the Buffy the Vampire Slayer comic book that includes a naked Willow [MTV]

"You know what I think? That Pauline was a poor Jewish girl who was at Berkeley with all these rich Pasadena Wasps with long blonde hair, and the heartlessness of them got her. And then, years later, she sees me." Meryl Streep on Pauline Kael's dislike of her [Guardian]

"One, I was at the Oscars. Two, I was on the red carpet at the Oscars. And three, someone introduced me to Daniel Day-Lewis on the red carpet at the Oscars. And four, he was like, 'I really loved your work in Juno.' And the fifth step was me just falling over." Olivia Thirlby on the "craziest moment" of her life [LAT]
