Actress

It is a really bizarre feeling to perform for, like, five people. You get so much energy from an audience, and when it's just five quiet people at a table, that's not the same.

It feels very cool to be part of a girl gang.

I shop almost exclusively online, from brands like Eloquii, ASOS, Elizabeth Suzann, or Rachel Comey, if one of their straight-size pieces has a little extra room.

I've never shown up to the set of 'SNL' or 'Girls' without having a million options for me to try on. They don't bat an eye at my body or how to dress me because they dress all kinds of bodies as costumers.

I love Instagram. I find it to be one of the truly positive social media things that exist.

I have no time for being embarrassed.

I'll do very light, very easy yoga in my dressing room. I like to just lay down on the floor and put my legs on the wall and stretch and just be still.

There's no conversation happening between plus-size women and designers. The door is never open.

I want to feel like I can dance or party all night and not be worried about people stepping on my dress.

Every morning when I wake up, I listen to 'The Brian Lehrer Show' on WNYC.

I don't take well to rules.

Most days, we don't get to the 'SNL' studio until noon. On Monday, we pitch the host, and that's our shortest, lightest day. Tuesday is our longest day - some people don't leave until Wednesday night. It's just a long, long day.

When I was hired to 'SNL,' I was 25 years old.

I'm not big on fuzzy or fleecy slippers. I just don't like the texture and the heat. It just gets to be too much.

I like to play characters that have an inner confidence about them that maybe you wouldn't expect them to have and that they aren't afraid to unleash occasionally.

I pretty much moisturize all damn day.

It's really fun to play someone with no filter but who is also really good at what she does.

I was a religious 'SNL' watcher all through middle school. I was obsessed with Molly Shannon, Ana Gasteyer, Cheri Oteri - they were on right when I found the show. Then I started watching the older episodes, and it just totally blew my mind that my dream show already existed.

I just want to be myself, and I really, like, can't say I'm sorry for it. I just can't.

Shooting in Japan was one of the best working experiences of my entire life.
